Item History & Price
non-paying bidders please note--if payment/communication is not received within 24 hours it will be presumed the bidder is agreeing to cancel the bid and i will re-list the item as is allowed under ebay rules--bidders with less than 10 positive feedback please contact me before bidding-
I can use the money so i'm changing this to a straight forward auction starting at $1 and letting the market decide it's value
Truly rare and beautiful limited edition 2010 Gibson ES 335 with the ...nitro black finish and the factory gold hardware--it has the classic 57s and sounds spectacular--it's also a rarity in that very few of these were made with the black/gold appointments.
It has signs of play wear which are hard to show with the black finish reflecting even the smallest light but there are some pick marks on the guard and lower horn--a bit of clouding on the neck or wear--hard to tell--and a small amount of tarnishing just beginning on the gold--as well as small signs of being lovingly played
the case is the original Custom shop case and is a bit worn outside as you can see but is in great shape inside with the exception that one of the protective straps on the fly have come off--no bad smells and from even a few feet away the guitar presents in very excellent condition--calling it "very good" is conservative. Any strange anomalies seen in the finish are totally the result of reflection
The fretboard is a beautiful reddish dark rosewood--the frets are original with the nibs and in excellent shape--the guitar was just set up by my luthier--who incidentally loved it--and has been cleaned and polished and restrung with d'darrio 10s and set up for my preferences.
Ready to go to work when it arrives
the guitar is also for sale locally as well as on Reverb so if it sells elsewhere this listing will disappear
i have perfect feedback in over 4500 transactions--all my instruments are completely gone over before i offer them--this one has new strings--a clean and polish and fretboard oiling and has been intonated as well as setup for my preferences--
NO RESERVE--$1 OPENING BID
