1954 Gibson ES125 (Factory order No. X8670-9)
I walked into Jackson’s Rare Guitars in Sydney and said “I need a cheap guitar to play through a battery power amp for some ‘acoustic’ jazzy gigs I have coming up, what do you have?” They showed me this guitar which had just come into the shop.
It was in a bit of a state, in fact the back was almost falling off, but otherwise it was all there. It still sounded good so I bought it and got the repair work done by Piers Crocker. It came out exceptionally well. A fantastic sounding ES125.
