Gibson / ES-335 TDC / 1966 / Cherry Red / Guitar
|
The beauty of the woods of this 335 is remarkable. Wave-figured maple top with bright cherry finish, beautifully figured brazilian rosewood fretboard. The crown inlay on the front of the headstock is still in the higher position, typical of Gibson's McCarty era. Original chrome hardware typical of the classic mid-'60s thinlines. The knobs are the old-style black 'reflector top', the tune-o-matic bridge has metal saddles and the impressed patent number. Both pickups are original and never rewound patent-numbers. been professionally used and it shows. The tuners had been replaced at some point, but the original 'double line- double ring' Kluson Deluxes' have been reinstalled. Next to the fixing plate of each Kluson there is a barely visible little plugged-hole from the other tuner - professionally filled and touched-up. The finish shows some checking. The neck joint is very solid, the neck is straight and steady, with normal playing wear and two hairline stress-lines behind the first two frets which don't affect at all the guitar's structural integrity, no cracks going through the wood. The guitar plays and sounds extremely well, is very light and has a comfortable neck profile. It comes with its original hardshell case, black with yellow lining. 37 pictures and a VERY detailed description at www.realvintage.it.
