GIBSON ES350 – 1952 ….SOLD !!!

SERIAL NUMBER: 11475

FACTORY ORDER NUMBER: Z 445 38

Superb! …….chunky 50`s neck, very pretty flame and warm jazzy sound.

This example was purchased in 1953 in Durban and the original invoice is available with it ! The
original owner paid 250 Pounds for the guitar and amp, and the dealer valiantly threw in a guitar
stand!

This is the very rare ‘Mastertone’ version as later in `52 the control layout changed to the standard
4 knob Gibson setup, and the model was discontinued in 1956. In pictures of one of the early greats
Chuck Berry played a blond ES350N, but with the later 4 knob set-up.

This guitar is absolutely all original and a perfect collector grade instrument.

Almost no checking or marks anywhere on this instrument.
All original gold hardware.
Dog ear P90`s.
Gold speed knobs
Original machine heads,
Rosewood Bridge,
Double parallelogram fret markers,
Crown inlay on headstock,
Beautiful flame front and back.
