The 1959 Gibson ES-225 represents the heart of Gibson’s late-’50s innovation — a perfect blend of style, tone, and craftsmanship. Made during Gibson’s most sought-after production period, this hollowbody electric offers everything collectors and players dream about.

The 1959 Gibson ES-225 features a laminated maple body with a Florentine cutaway, a mahogany neck, and a rosewood fingerboard that feels smooth and balanced. The original single P-90 pickup delivers rich, vintage tone — warm, articulate, and loaded with that classic Gibson growl.

This particular ES-225 has aged beautifully, with honest wear and a naturally developed patina that tells its story. Every detail, from the trapeze tailpiece to the vintage tuners, remains authentic. Professionally inspected and set up by our in-house luthier at Sixx Gun Music, Las Vegas, it plays effortlessly while preserving its original vintage character.

For collectors, this piece is more than a guitar — it’s a true piece of American music history. Late-’50s Gibson hollowbodies are rising in value every year, making this an incredible investment as well as a joy to play.
