The 350T was derived from the famous Byrdland models. Gibson's Custom Shop reissued the ES350T in 1999 as a limited edition in both a traditional vintage sunburst and natural (blonde) finish. These models had gold hardware, Gibson PAF Humbuckers, Curly Maple Body, rosewood fingerboard with parallelogram inlays with the longer 25.5" scale (like the 1977-81 run), and a 1 11/16" nut width. Other examples in blonde can be found online dating from 1996, but it remains unclear whe...ther these examples were customer orders or from a specific Gibson issueThis guitar (Serial number 90119009) was produced in Jan. 1999 and does not have a single scratch on it. No dings or blemishes. The finish is as good as the day I got it. The neck is very comfortable, without that sharp shoulder of many Gibson guitars. It’s smooth and quick action has a really great feel. Tones are thick, bright and very sweet. Jazz, Blues, Rock, or any genre can be easily achieved thru the 2 Gibson PAF humbuckers. Includes original hardshell case. Shipping can be arranged and more accurate estimate can be provided with postal address.
