Gibson 1959 ES-225 Historic Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar Vintage Burst

The return of a classic.




The Gibson 1959 ES-225 Historic Semi-Hollow
Electric Guitar has a special place in history. Made for only a few
years between 1955 and 1959, it was marketed as Gibson's first thinline
hollowbody with a depth of 1-7/8". It sports some cool features, most
notable of which is the Les Paul bridge and tailpiece combination that
offers a surprising degree of adjustment for both action and intonation.
Other historically accurate features not mentioned in specs below
include a nylon nut, hot hide glue neck joint and under-wound pickups
for authentic vintage tone. Perfect for jazz and blues, the 1959 ES-225
is 100% American made and includes a nice hardshell case.
