Fresh out of a private collection(my very own), this is an uncirculated 1960 Gibson ES-345TDC, 100% original in EXC condition with OHSC. This guitar has the highly desirable Factory stop tail piece. The Varitone assembly is complete intact.

This is one of only 252 ES-345TDCs from 1960, with serial # A33896. This ES-345 has been featured several times over the years on The Les Paul Forum.

The Cherry Red is perfect: not too light(reminiscent of orange) and not too dark(reminiscent of blood). Really stunning unfaded color with nicely figured wood underneath; this is the vintage guitar with absolutely the coolest vibe I’ve ever owned!

This is a true survivor, unmolested 100% original 1968 left handed Gibson ES-335TD in Cherry Red, with OHSC. It is also a one-owner guitar!

This guitar has been thoroughly inspected and expertly set-up by Scott Freilich of Top Shelf Music, a Gibson authorized repair center since 1979.

It also has no volute, no Made in U.S.A. stamp, and a no-logo Gibson case with the Marigold interior which was used by Gibson through mid-1969.
