USED GIBSON CUSTOM / 1959 ES-355 VOS Vintage Natural [03]

The Gibson Custom Shop/1959 ES-355 VOS Vintage Natural made in 2022 is now in stock!

The 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body has a long tenon mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard.
The neck shape is "Authentic '59 Medium C-Shape".
Vintage Natural" finish color is used.
Gold parts, mother-of-pearl inlays, multi-ply binding, and other high-end features of the ES-355 have been faithfully reproduced.
Like the Les Paul, it also features a tubeless truss rod, glued with nickel wire, and True Historic parts.

Two original "Custombucker Alnico III (Unpotted)" pickups are installed.
Unpotted pickups faithfully reproduce the vintage sound.
The sweet and warm tone characteristic of early humbuckers is very attractive.

The condition of the guitar has some scratches, dings, and dents as well as some dulling of the parts due to the VOS finish.
Also, the pickup escutcheons on both the front and rear pickups are a little distorted.
There are some signs of use, but there are no major noticeable scratches, and playability is not a problem.

The ES-355 is a Custom Shop ES-355 that reproduces the valuable specifications of 1959!
The color is Natural, a rare color, so please take this opportunity to consider it!
