Description

This 1959 Gibson ES-345TD features a sunburst maple body with a mahogany neck and Brazilian rosewood fingerboard. It was sent to the Gibson factory to receive a new neck in 1961. Its slim C-profile, 24.75" scale, and 12" radius give it the fast, comfortable feel associated with early-’60s Gibson electrics.

The guitar has been rewired in a conventional ES-335 configuration with new CTS pots and Orange Drop capacitors. It has also been refretted and has a repaired headstock crack, along with non-original tuners and visible holes from the original set. Includes its original hardshell case.
