This 1963 Gibson ES-175 remains in exceptionally fine condition, showing remarkably little playing wear and retaining much of the character that has made the model a staple of jazz, blues, and early electric guitar history. Finished in classic sunburst, it features an appealing pickup pairing with a Patent Number humbucker in the neck position and a PAF in the bridge, offering two distinct voices from Gibson’s golden-era humbucker production.
The laminated maple body and single Florentine cutaway give the ES-175 its unmistakable silhouette. The bridge base has been pinned to the top for added stability. It remains a notably clean example overall. With its combination of condition, originality, and desirable pickup configuration, this ES-175 captures an important moment in Gibson’s early-1960s lineup.
Includes original black hard shell case with gold plush lining.
