This is a Gibson ES-175CCCharlieCheristian made around 1979 with the neck replaced.

Full acoustic laminated maple body with distinctive Charlie Christian pickups, simple controls for Volume Tone, pot date both 1979, originally 3-piece maple neck with double parallelogram inlays and rosewood fingers. Although it is a board, the neck has been replaced with a slightly thinner mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard with dot position marks, the headstock has a script logo style, and the truss rod cover has been greatly modified with a vintage feel, such as using flathead screws. It is being done.

It seems that the neck was replaced at least 20 years ago, and although the body shows signs of use, such as dents with peeling paint, it is in good condition considering the model year.

The neck is almost straight and in good condition, the truss rod works well, and although the frets have a slightly reduced low position on the treble string side, there is no noticeable chatter or blockage, and the playability is good.

Although this is a rare model that was manufactured in only a small number in 1978 and 1979, it was probably renecked due to neck trouble.It has a moderate acoustic feel and a clear tone from the Charlie Christian pickup, making it a good choice for those who are looking for a solid acoustic guitar. This is a recommended book.
