ES175

I love it when I can put together the history of some of my guitars. This 175 was procured for me by a dealer in Santa Cruz who bought it from the son of a session musician who played with people like Django Reinhart and bought it new in 1950. Unfortunately he passed away early in 2001. Although it has obviously seen a lot of use, at some time it's had new machine heads fitted, it is in excellent condition and ones of this sort of era usually fetch between £2/3000 (pound sterling) depending on condition.
