Used 1956 Gibson ES-225T Sunburst with Original hard Shell Case in Excellent Condition. There are some usual wear from time on this guitar, though no cracks, dings or anything that affects playability; see photos for more details. Had a refret at some time in its almost 70 year long life. The pickguard is warp due to age as well. Single P-90 fully hollow thinline Rock Machine. Weighs 5 Pounds, 8 Ounces. This guitar is really in great shape for its age. Feel free to contact us with any questions! Here’s some info from an old Gibson Catalog: “More brilliant tone, quicker response and greater sustaining qualities with the ES-225T—plus a new slim body design for easier and less tiring playing action. The rigidity and tone features of a solid body electric are combined with the light weight, easy-to-hold shape of the conventional electrics for an outstanding professional Cutaway Electric in the popular price field. The ES-225T has a powerful single pickup with Alnico Magnets and individually adjustable polepieces to balance tone and response from each string; original Les Paul style combination bridge-tailpiece for increased sustaining tone qualities and reduction of distortion and feedback; separate tone and volume controls; streamlined mahogany neck with Gibson adjustable Truss Rod; bound rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlays; side position markers and 20 nickel silver frets; laminated raised pickguard; nickel plated metal parts and fittings; body size 16 ¼” wide, 20 ¼” long, 1 ⅝” deep with Gibson Sunburst finish top accented by cream colored top and back binding.”
