Description
For consideration: vintage Gibson ES-125 electric guitar dated (est.) 1(contact info removed). This guitar has only had one owner. It comes ready-to-play from an individual (me, via my late grandpa) in good preloved condition. One note from a friend who looked this piece over for me: “I’m noticing the back of the headstock on this guitar has a few holes from someone changing the tuners.” I don’t know too much about guitars, or even really what tuners are, so please look over all the photos posted here and don’t hesitate to ask for details if I’m missing something crucial in this post! I have a couple videos where I slowly scan over the whole piece and case for an extra look at the details that I took for a potential buyer awhile ago that I can share too. Details from internet research - The ES-125 evolved out of the ES-100 in 1941 and was produced until 1942. Upon its reintroduction in 1946, the ES-125 changed in a number of ways including a wider body, a new P-90 pickup, and trapezoid inlays. The ES-125 was updated again in 1950 with an adjustable P-90 pickup and dot inlays. Through the '60s, a number of variations on the original ES-125 were produced including a version with cutaway (ES-125 C), thinbody versions (ES-125T or ES-125 TC), as well as versions with two instead of one pickup (ES-125 TDC or ES-125 CD). Years of Production: 1(contact info removed), 1(contact info removed) Design Elements: P-90 pickup, dot inlays, volume and tone knobs Notable Players: George Thorogood, Sheryl Crow
