  • Description: During the 1960's Gibson experimented with some different ideas for guitar building. These guitars were marked with standard serial numbers, but with an "X" before it. This guitar is a very unique example of those guitars. It's a 1967 ES-355 with a mahogany neck & extremely rare mahogany BODY! There are plenty of signs showing us that this guitar saw a lot of play as it has had a different set of tuning keys at one time (the originals are back on now) and it has been refretted. There is typical cosmetic wear, but it remains structurally sound with no cracks, breaks, or repairs. The neck plays great with good frets showing some wear, and all electronics work an sound great. The tremolo arm is missing, but it still has its original hardshell case.
