Up for sale, a 1976 Gibson ES-175D in collector-grade, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. One of the cleanest vintage Gibsons we've ever had through the shop, this ES-175 is loaded with its patent number T Top humbucker pair, delivering a detailed and dynamic range of tones. The fully hollow maple body gives the guitar both the immediate attack and clarity of maple, with an airy quality and smoothness befitting the hollowbody construction. Authoritative and clear with a sweet-sounding bridge pickup and notable bell-like clarity at the neck, this ES-175 really sings through a vintage tube amp. This ES-175 weighs 7lbs 9oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
