Incredible ES-175d from 1967. This guitar is in unbelievable condition, this jazz box was lying in its case in an attic for decades and is finally ready to see action again. The ES is completely original and has absolutely no problems, except for a  few microscopic scuffs shown in the pictures. No volute, Pat # pickups, one-piece mahogany neck, pristine original sunburst finish. It would be difficult to find a cleaner example of a 60's es-175. These 60's era thin pencil necks get a-lot of flack but they are very comfortable and easier to play lead on.

Condition: Excellent Condition, from a distance looks mint, however, you can find a small ding on the front of the headstock, some scuffing around the right f-hole, and very microscopic scuffs on the back. This ES-175d was also stamped a factory second and sold at a 10% discount back in the day. These problems were completely cosmetic and on this piece, there are some finishing errors underneath the fretboard where it hangs over the body, although completely hidden from view. With a dead straight neck, and professionally set up, this beauty will be ready to rip in no time. 

Electronics:
All original pickups and pots that date to 1967. Solder joints untouched. Pat # Pickups.
