1958 ES-175DN @ Gruhn's 25K

[Little Jay]

Back in the mid 1990s, I purchased a brand new Gibson ES-175. It felt heavy and rather clunky, and there was always something on rattling. I sold or traded it off. A year or so later, I ran into a 1950s ES-175 used at a local Music-Go-Round. It was a completely different guitar - light as a feather, and no rattles. I should have bought it, but at the time, I didn't have the cash. Now, I have a 1998 Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion III and couldn't be happier.

I read the ‘59 VOS models do a good job in that respect and are indeed much like the 50ies models?
