1962 gibson es 125 value4/1/2024 There is a small crack in the wood extending vertically on the back of the headstock from the base of the headstock up to tuner for the low E string. The tuners have been swapped out for modern Schallers, and the holes from the originals are visible. There are various scratches, dents, nicks, dings, chips, and scuffs throughout the guitar, and ample weather checking throughout. As with all our guitars, it comes professionally inspected by our in-house luthier to ensure that the electronics are functioning, and that it will play properly up and down the length of the fingerboard (to the best of our ability on this one…it plays great but there’s only so much we can do with the issues at hand).Ĭosmetic condition: There’s no sugar-coating this one…just about anything you can think of has happened to this thing. Despite all these issues, this guitar sounds terrific, thanks to the original P90 single-coils, and is fully playable. This was done by a previous owner who it seems didn’t want to “splurge” on a neck reset. The pickguard is gone, the tuners are changed, there’s a hairline crack in the headstock, finish checking galore, and a steel rod running from the neck heel through the interior of the guitar and out the end pin. ![]() What makes this guitar special: Never has there been a more fitting example of a “player’s guitar.” This thing is far from collector’s quality, but it sure gets the job done fine.
