Beautiful 1963 Gibson ES-120t Thinline Archtop. All original except for the tone and volume knobs that were swapped for speed knobs and the bridge that was swapped for a tune-o-matic for perfect intonation up and down the neck. Neck is incredibly straight and the fretboard and frets look new from low use and being strung only with flat-wounds. Cosmetically in fantastic shape with typical checkin in the nitro and no issues with binding separation or cracking. Neck finish is very impressive as are the original tuners. The only notable cosmetic issue is on the headstock where it looks as if a hole may have been drilled through it at one point. I put pictures showing the front and back. It is only noticeable from up close and doesn't look bad at all. Just below the serial number on the headstock there is a small circle of discoloration and on the front of the headstock, the "s" on the original logo looks to have been touched up over top the same size circle of discoloration that is on the back. "ES-120t" is stamped in blue in inside the bass-side f-hole and the ink is in perfect condition which is surprising as most vintage Gibsons i've owned have had fading issues with similar blue ink. Comes with non-original hardcase and will be packed super-safely and shipped insured. Best of luck!
