Gibson / ES175D Sunburst 1965-68 / Guitar

Gibson ES-175D from 1965-68, all original except for the tuners. Due to its enduring appeal “ a blend of comfortable playability and warm sonic versatility with presence to spare “ the ES-175 has found its way into the hands and hearts of generations of players.  Just like any other ES175D from the same era it features laminated maple back, sides and top, a 3-piece maple neck, sunburst top finish and walnut stained back and neck, bound rosewood fretboard with split parallelogram inlays, ES175 tailpiece, tune-o-matic bridge with rosewood base and a pair of patent no. humbucking pickups. The instrument is almost entirely original down to the frets with the exception of one tone potmeter which has been replaced. Condition is "Good"; expected playwear and signs of use, has a patch repair surrounding the output jack. The tailpiece is also missing a few screws, the finish of the headstock has some heavy "chipping" and there are a few extra holes in the headstock from other tuners. Plays and sounds extremely well. Includes vintage Guild hardshell case.

ABOUT US

I have always been opposed to being trapped into a job eight hours a day to purchase the free time to do what I enjoy. That’s why i started the Fellowship of Acoustics. The fellowship of acoustics was founded by Rudi Bults, Guitarist and obsessed with tone and wood. The idea was offering real expertise when trading and selling the finest instruments in the world from our showroom in Bergentheim, Netherlands. Helping others find the right tools and enjoying an atmosphere that’s unhurried, honest and informative that’s my go. We are nothing like the "supermarket" style music stores, but specialize in string-things only. We are widely known for Flattop guitars but also sell electric, mandolins & banjo’s, amps, parts, and accessories. Our store has earned the reputation for being a great place to shop for the best products and service.
It is our hope that this new website - much more than a list of "gear" for sale - will serve as an example of our commitment to offering a more personal approach, a friendly atmosphere, and an ultimately more satisfying experience for our friends and customers.
If you have any questions just dial +31-523-232205 or e-mail info@thefellowshipofacoustics.com My name is Rudi Bults, and I’m always here to help out. Wherever possible, we would recommend that you visit our store and experience our instruments and service first hand. However, because of our high standards you can be confident of ordering online from us. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site, and welcome your feedback.
