❌SOLD❌ Gibson ES-175

Joe Pass, Kenny Burrell, Joe Diorio, Toots Thielmans, Wes Montgomery, Pat Martino, Herb Ellis, Howard Roberts, Jimmy Raney, Pat Metheny … all at one time in their careers played & recorded with the venerable Gibson ES-175. Hey, it’s almost quicker to name jazz players who haven’t performed with a 175!

Gibson introduced the “Electric Spanish ES-175”, aptly named for its initial $175.00 sell price, in 1949. This was not only Gibson’s first model with a Florentine cutaway, but also one of the first guitars to be outfitted in 1957 with the new patent applied for humbucking pickups!

Today’s ES-175 is an accurate reproduction of the original series, circa 1957 … same dimensions & materials and with the Gibson ’57 Classic pickups … that same clear warm jazz tone!
