ES-295, the fancier ES-175
What a remarkable Rockabilly instrument we have here for you. A 1956 Gibson ES-295 all gold with great patina and vibe. Originally introduced in 1952, The ES-295 became famous thanks to Elvis Presley's guitarist; Scotty Moore, playing one throughout his carteer with Elvis.
This 1956 is internally/externally original, aside for:
A replaced tailpiece
Additional strap pin holes
Replace strap pins
Sealed original holes
The Gold finish on the neck is long gone, due to years of playing, which makes total sense once you plug and hear this Gibson ES-295. It has old stories to tell, and new ones to experience. The frets are still the original ones, and still have life in them. The actions is perfect and the two P90 pickups are loud and healthy.
With only 193 examples shipped in 1956, finding such a nice looking Gibson ES-295 is rare, especially in Europe. On top of that, this guitar comes with Cites so you are covered.
