❌SOLD❌ Gibson ESDT335 Thinline Archtop Lightburst, 2004

On August 23, 2021 /

Here’s a very nicely figured and very good condition Gibson ESDT335 in Lightburst finish, built during 2094 at the now-closed Gibson Memphis plant. The Gibson ESDT335 is a slight variation on the standard ES-335, with the ‘ES’ standing as always for ‘Electric Spanish’. ‘Spanish’ refers to how the guitar is held and played, with one of the few other primary designations being ‘EH’ for ‘Electric Hawaiian’

❌SOLD❌ Epiphone by Gibson Sheraton II Vintage Sunburst, 1988

On August 22, 2021 /

The Epiphone by Gibson Sheraton II appeared with the ‘by Gibson’ logo for only two years or so, ending around 1988; these were built in the Samick shops in Korea and are excellent instruments. The original Epiphone Sheraton was built from 1958 to 1970, and Gibson had purchased the remains of Epiphone 1957. Their introduction was concurrent with the launch of Gibson’s new ES-3×5 line, a revolutionary design that added a solid center block to a thin-body electric archtop.

❌SOLD❌Gibson Les Paul Classic Bullion Gold, 1990

On August 20, 2021 /

Here is a bit of a rarity – a Gibson Les Paul Classic Bullion Gold finish. This model isn’t just a Gold Top – the entire guitar is gold! This example was built during 1990, and while this finish was available for perhaps three years, it was not common. It is definitely classy and eye-catching! The Gibson Les Paul Classic Bullion Gold is built like other carved-top Les Pauls, with a bound Maple cap on a Mahogany body, paired with a Mahogany neck and bound Indian Rosewood fingerboard.

❌SOLD❌ Gibson LG3 Steel String Guitar Natural, 1949

On August 10, 2021 /

The Gibson LG3 was built from late 1942 to 1963 as an entry level model, but its production was suspended months after its launch due to WW2. It was introduced with the LG1 and LG2, but from 1943 to 1945, only the sunburst LG2 stayed in production. All three models were similar in appearance, but the LG1 and LG2 were ladder braced while the LG3 had what’s now the standard X bracing. In 1963, the LG3 was replaced by the B25-N (for Natural Finish Top).

❌SOLD❌ Gibson SG ‘Batwing’ Standard Cherry, 2012

On August 5, 2021 /

The Gibson SG ‘Batwing’ Standard started appearing in 1966, displacing the smaller, treble-side pickguard, offering much more protection to the top of the guitar during enthusiastic use. The SG itself was originally introduced as the 1961 Les Paul, but without Les Paul’s input and at the end of his endorsement contract. For various reasons, the Les Paul name was dropped for 1963 production and has been the SG or ‘Solid Guitar’ since.

Aside from specialty models like the Supreme, it’s always been the top of the Les Paul line, with gold plated hardware, extra binding and more Mother of Pearl inlays. Some versions after the 1957 introduction of the new humbucking pickup, sported three pickups.
