1959 Gibson ES-355 Mono Watermelon
Description
Check out this clean '59 Gibson ES-355 mono with original lacquered side pull tailpiece! This is the earliest example of the side pull vibrato we could find, and it's a bit different than later examples. The gold is lacquered over, unlike most of the gold hardware which oxidizes and corrodes. It's also very stable and stays in tune as well as a Bigsby. The '59 neck profile is perfect, the thin top is very resonant, and the original PAF pickups are divine.
