USED GIBSON / ES-175 Vintage Sunburst 1994 [03]

1994 ES-175
We’ve just received a 1994 ES-175, a model whose value has been rising noticeably year after year.

It is equipped with two “57 Classic” pickups, which are immensely popular and pair perfectly with full-acoustic guitars.
This model is known for its rich, full-bodied, sweet tone that fills the room.

Overall, it shows signs of wear appropriate for its age, including scratches and dents, dents near the toggle switch, numerous linear scratches on the back of the body, weather checking, and paint thinning.

Additionally, there are scattered areas where the clear coat has worn off due to playing, particularly on the back of the neck and near the sides of the body; however, this does not affect playability, and there is no stickiness or snagging.
In addition, a surface crack caused by aging has appeared at the neck heel, resulting in a slight gap.

The pickguard has been replaced; since it is slightly the wrong size, it covers the pickup height adjustment screws, causing the pickguard to lift slightly.

The key to the included genuine hard case is broken; while it is still usable for normal purposes, the case cannot be locked.

Although it shows signs of use, it is still in solid “player’s condition” and fully playable. This is a magnificent instrument, featuring not only the beautiful grain on the top but also the striking wide-flame pattern on the sides.
