Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: The frets as they were could not be repaired to an acceptable state so they were replaced with spec accurate fretwire and shaped into near mint condition. Minor dents present on the guitar required our luthier to fill, color match, and refinish the area. No further work was needed.
This Gibson ES-175T is a beautifully preserved example of a timeless hollowbody, offering classic elegance with a sleek, comfortable feel. Its fully hollow maple construction delivers warm, articulate resonance, while the slim taper three-piece maple neck invites effortless movement across the rosewood fingerboard. Finished in rich Wine Red nitrocellulose, it carries undeniable visual charm and vintage appeal. Thoughtful upgrades to the tuning machines and pickups enhance stability and tonal performance, ensuring confident playability without compromising character. Lightweight, resonant, and well cared for, this USA-made ES-175T stands as a compelling, long-term investment for discerning players and collectors alike.
