Info: Up for bid is an early to mid 1960’s Gibson ES-125 TCD with a beautiful Sunburst finish. This is a second owner guitar. My Step-Father purchased it back in the mid 60’s from a shop in San Fransisco and has been the sole owner since then. He passed away in 2006 and my Mother has been forced to part with it. I can tell you that every time my Step-Father picked this baby up it brought a grin from ear to ear so it must have been pretty special. Therefore, it is very dear to me also. Sounds a good as it looks.
NOTE: This has not been buffed or cleaned and everything works perfectly. I beleive the Bigsby Tremelo Bar is NOT an original peice.
I’m not a guitarist and I don’t know all of the jargon so please bare with me and I will do the best I can to answer any questions you may have.
Body size at lower bout: 16″. Scale length: 24.9″ Nut Width: 1 11/16″
Materials: Solid Honduras mahogany neck; maple top back, and sides; solid Brazilian rosewood fingerboard
Hardware: 100% original hardware includes twin P-90 pickups; gold reflector cap tone and volume knobs; nickel raised-diamond trapeze tailpiece; tortoise pickguard; nickel-plated Kluson Deluxe tuners, compensated rosewood bridge; 3 way pickup selector switch
Good luck and enjoy!
