Gibson Custom 1959 ES-335 Reissue, VOS, Vintage Burst, w/HSC

Gorgeous Custom Shop 1959 ES-335 Reissue! Featuring a lightly-aged vintage patina nitrocellulose finish in classic Vintage Burst. The top doesn't quite fade to full black on the bottom, which is more period-correct and is a detail they only replicated for a short window. Set up in-store and plays beautifully. No structural or performance issues, some cosmetic wear including some slight finish wear, light buckle rash, tiny nail wear on back of neck, small scrape on underside of headstock, and truss rod cover scratch from string change. Includes original case and COA; case shows some very light cosmetic wear.
