For your consideration is this 1959 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster jazz guitar in beautiful vintage sunburst finish. Overall all it's a great guitar with no cracks but is a player guitar. All the parts are high quality aged replica reproductions. The pots are 500K Bourns with orange drop caps and all new wiring and work flawlessly. The original pickguard, nut, switch, and pot cans are still in tact. The pickups are 90s Gibson's and sound great in any position. Overall it's just a fantastic looking, playing, and sounding guitar and will be a great addition to your guitar arsenal. Please note the pickup covers and tailpiece look nickel but are worn gold.

Will s-w-a-p for modern American electric guitars.

Comes with the modern Gibson case. (93)

Condition, Return Policy, Shipping, & Setup:
I sell used guitars and most guitars have normal play wear. I am a stickler for condition and I will not sell a guitar with issues of any kind unless stated. I've been selling guitars since the 80s and I try my best to find the best examples out there.

Due to the recent rash of buyers remorse, all orders are now AS-IS / NO RETURNS. Buy with confidence, we sell over 500 items a year on Reverb!

Please note the shipping charge is more than just a box. Everything I sell is professionally packed with approved UPS materials. I typically use new 275lb rated heavy duty boxes, 3" wide brown fiberglass reinforced glue tape, and pack the guitar to survive a hurricane. I fully insure all guitars shipped for the selling price.

I setup guitars to my liking (Medium Height) and I never buy guitars with neck issues. Please realize that a guitars setup is personal preference. It's best to have a local tech you're comfortable with do a proper setup to your liking who knows you and your preferences. I do not accept returns if you don't like how it plays out of the box. Again, setup is personal preference and I setup to my liking.
