As title says I'm after a 175. Not bothered about year/age as long as it sounds good!

I had one in the 90s - unplugged it sounds like a plank, plugged in = instant Jazz heaven - great  guitar but hellish expensive these days

I'd take a look at this @markgwilliams ;

Thanks for the link. I love heritage guitars, I have a h535 which is great, but I think the h575 is a different guitar completely to a Gibson 175. I'm after that very specific jazz thing.

Foulds guitars has one in that I'm considering. I'm just seeing if there's any others out there.

there’s this one in Northampton (eBay and reverb) reasonably priced but headstock repair.
Im almost sure I’ve seen it for sale before
