1960 Gibson ES-355TDSV, Serial Number A 34863
This Gibson Certified Vintage 1960 ES-355TDSV™ is a Golden Era standout—Patent Applied For pickup-equipped, freshly refretted, and ready for the stage or studio. It has everything a player or collector could want in a top-tier thinline: a rich Cherry finish, clean gold hardware, and beautifully balanced tone.
This instrument has seen only gentle use and remains in exceptionally clean condition, with almost no checking, nicks, or dings. The slim neck profile is fast and comfortable, with fresh medium jumbo frets and a new nylon nut installed by Glaser Instruments that make it a true player’s guitar. Both original Patent Applied For pickups deliver the touch sensitivity and tonal complexity that define the late-50s and early-60s Gibson sound. The Varitone circuit opens up a broad range of sonic options, making this ES-355 as versatile as it is collectible.
Comes with its original brown and pink Stone hardshell case, Certificate of Authenticity, Letter of Appraisal, and new Limited Lifetime Warranty.
To fully utilize the stereo output circuit of this guitar, we’ve included the following accessories:
• 1x 12’ Mogami® Gold Stereo Guitar Cable (1/4” TRS to Dual 1/4” TS)
• 1x 3’ Mogami Gold Instrument Cable
• 1x JHS Summing Amp Utility Pedal
• 1x Truetone 1 Spot® 9V Power Supply
This setup allows for multiple routing options. The original design enables stereo operation by using a 1/4” TRS to 1/4” TRS cable into a Gibson stereo amplifier, or a 1/4” TRS to dual 1/4” TS cable into two separate amps. The latter configuration is still possible with the included 1/4” TRS to dual 1/4” TS stereo cable.
If you prefer to use a single amp or integrate the guitar into a mono pedalboard setup, the remaining components will come into play. The JHS Summing Amp Utility Pedal actively combines the guitar’s stereo signal into a mono output, preserving its full frequency response. While this setup maintains signal integrity, it does not reverse magnetic phase—so the middle position may still exhibit a thinner, “quacky” tone when both pickups are at equal volume, a result of the original out-of-phase pickup pairing common in this era. However, by slightly reducing the volume of one pickup, a more in-phase sound can be achieved, offering a wide and expressive tonal palette.
