Prettiest cop Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Hi! I’ve bought this ES 175 a few weeks ago. Just wondering about the letters inside the guitar, and on the paper that came with it. ES 75, ES 125... weird... and what do OlD letters mean?

It is hard to see what the letters are, what are they? Steve Howe would certainly approve of that. Me too. Edited February 9, 2020 by Sgt.

Prettiest cop Posted February 11, 2020 Author Share Posted February 11, 2020 Could it be something else than an ES-175? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. If the date is 29 Aug 2001 that should be a very nice guitar, as that was a good period for Gibson. I don't know what 'OID' (if that's what the letters are) means....someone's initials perhaps? Can't quite make it out but is the bridge offset on the wooden base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prettiest cop Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 Ok, thanks, I had some doubts... That bridge seems to be fine, but I don’t know that much about 175. I have to compare it with pics on the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
