1956 Gibson ES-350T,Serial Number A 24085
This exceptionally cool Gibson Certified Vintage 1956 ES-350T™ oozes 50s feel and vibe. It’s a clean and lively instrument, with light nicks and dings, even vertical checking, and minimal playwear. The Sunburst finish retains great color and highlights the beautifully figured maple top, while light hardware tarnishing and subtle wear around the treble f-hole and heel speak to its authentic vintage character. The lacquer has flaked away from the crown inlay, a small but notable visual detail.
A Gibson Custom aged ABR-1 bridge has been installed for improved performance and feel; the original bridge is included in the case and is missing one original saddle and its accompanying screw. The guitar retains its original small, skinny frets and plays exceptionally well—proof that this short-scale neck design has a charm all its own. Responsive and full of personality, this ES-350T is asking to be played with a little attitude, whether it’s rockabilly, blues, or western swing.
Comes with its original Lifton™ brown and pink hardshell case, Certificate of Authenticity, Letter of Appraisal, and new Limited Lifetime Warranty.
