1965 Gibson ES-335TD Factory Bigsby - Sunburst

$1,980 $3,300

Beautiful, two owner example of a 1965 Gibson ES-335TD with a factory original Bigsby. The mid 60s ES335s, finished in the darker sunburst, have become very much desired over the years as opposed to the more common lighter burst or Cherry finish examples. This guitar also has a factory original Bigsby which gives it a ton more tone and sustain as compared to the trapeze tail piece examples most commonly seen from this time. This ES335 displays finish checking and honest player wear but has no repairs and is all original. The frets are in good condition displaying some indentions between the first and fifth frets, the 1 11/16" nut is still lacquered over on the bottom side, harness is untouched and the nickel plated pickups are also untouched and sound fantastic! This guitar is absolute treat to play and will make an outstanding addition to any collection. Weighs in at a near perfect 8 lbs 12 oz and comes compete with its original black / yellow lined case. Please email or call with any questions.
