Used Gibson ES-125 Vintage Electric Guitar Sunburst 6-String

Shipping: $85

Description

This 1956 Gibson ES-125 in sunburst is a true slice of golden-era electric guitar history. With its fully hollow body construction and classic single P-90 pickup layout, it delivers that woody, warm, and slightly gritty tone that defined countless jazz, blues, and early rock recordings. The vintage sunburst finish highlights the arched top beautifully, giving it the timeless look you expect from a mid-50s Gibson.

This model has long been favored for its open, resonant character and expressive response. The original P-90 pickup delivers articulate cleans with rich harmonic detail and pushes into smooth, snarling overdrive when you dig in. This particular example has had practical updates over the years, including Schaller tuners installed likely in the late 70s or 80s, a new bridge saddle replacing the original that had deteriorated, and updated wiring and pots for reliable performance while retaining the original P-90. These thoughtful modifications help keep it stage-ready while preserving the heart of its vintage tone.

This guitar has been thoroughly tested in-store to ensure it is performing properly. It includes a hard case. We buy, sell, and trade used gear every day, and vintage pieces like this do not come through often.
