Vintage Correct Parts is proud to offer, for your consideration,
A fantastic

Vintage 1959 Gibson ES-225TD in stunning original Sunburst finish!

The 1950's were a great era for Gibson guitar production - a now legendary era - the Les Paul Standard "Burst", Goldtop and Custom models from these years are highly sought after and are some of the most desirable vintage guitars ever produced. Certain years seem to have "better" woods - maybe a choice section of the Michigan forest was logged for Gibson around this time!

This example is hands-down one of the cleanest and best playing vintage Gibson hollowbodies we've had in the shop in a very long time. With very little play-time since new, it's a great option for the player or collector.   Long unavailable vintage tone woods including Old Growth Rosewood, Honduran Mahogany and Flamed Michigan maple contribute to the fantastic tone of this ES-225.   Player priced at what you'd expect to pay for a custom shop reissue, this guitar will blow any modern archtop out of the water in looks, feel and especially warm woody vintage tone.
