1959 Gibson ES-225T

For sale today is a Gibson ES-225T from 1959. This guitar is in good shape, with the expected dings, scuffs, and checking, but nothing major (see photos). It plays well and sounds absolutely phenominal. A few notes on the overall condition:

-Hardware is all correct. While there is no way to verify for certain, all signs point to this being a factory bigsby.

-The bigsby arm is currently very stiff in terms of side-to-side motion.

-Electronics function as they should and sound fantastic.

-A strap button has been added to the heel.

-The guitar has been refretted. The work is clean and professional and the frets have tons if life left. This truly is a great playing guitar.

the guitar will be packed with the utmost care and ship with a non-original hardshell case. Please reach out if you have any additional questions, thanks for looking!
