Great Guitar, A Classic Instrument for a Jazz Musician
3 of 3 found this helpful This guitar is a classic, pure and simple. It is a dream guitar for a jazz player who appreciates the sound of an archtop. The guitars made by Gibson in the mid 50's to mid 60's were crafted for players. They were spare with varnish which allows the woods to deliver warm, rich and pure sound.
I purchased this guitar for my daughter, a talented and dedicated jazz guitarist. She is thrilled to own it.
Collectors revere the ES-175, but I believe that anyone who owns a fine a guitar as this one does it no service by protecting it behind glass. It must be played.
