Description

1962 Gibson ES-125TC Archtop Electric Guitar with Case – Sunburst

This 1962 Gibson ES-125TC has received a professional setup and now plays effortlessly with comfortable, low action across the entire neck. A previous owner fitted replacement tuners and a replacement truss rod cover. Both perform as intended and maintain reliable functionality.

The guitar shows honest cosmetic wear consistent with more than six decades of use. Light finish checking appears across the body, while the neck joint shows visible finish wear. Despite these signs of age, the body remains clean, solid, and structurally sound.

Years of regular playing have left several dings and scratches on the back of the neck and headstock. The frets also show noticeable wear, particularly beneath the B string between the first and fifth frets. Even so, the guitar continues to play well, and the frets still have useful life remaining.

A previous owner secured the original rosewood adjustable bridge with double-sided tape to keep it in position. Some tape residue remains visible on the top.

The sale includes the original Gibson hard case. Please review all photos carefully, as they form part of the description and accurately show the guitar’s overall condition. Reasonable offers are welcome.
