1965 GibsonES-335TD – Cherry
This 1965 Gibson ES-335TDC is a beautiful transitional model with some highly desirable specs! This guitar is super clean and feels practically brand new playability-wise, with original frets that show very little wear. The Cherry finish remains in excellent condition, highlighting a stunning maple body with a beautiful grain pattern. This is most likely one of the earliest trapeze tailpiece models, given that the guitar features a mix of original chrome and nickel hardware, yet retains a wide nut and a deeper carve to the top of the body. The latter features make this guitar more akin to a late 50s-early 60s example in feel.
