SOLD: Gibson ES-125T (1960); WITHDRAWN Eastman T64/v with Callaham Bigsby upgrade;
thinline72
Frets: 88
Some very nice P90 guitar up for sale! 
Possible trades/PX:
- Fulltone TTE (Tube Tape Echo)
- lower-end vintage electrics or archtops (Harmony, Kay, Silvertone etc.)
A lovely Gibson ES-125T from 1960. It's my 3rd (out of 4 now!) ES-125 type of a guitar, and the only reason I'm parting with it is that I just got ES-125TDC!
This particular one has a very warm woody tone. It's very resonate! I often find myself noodling on it unplugged in late evenings. I had full-depth ES-125 before and I think this thinline sounds louder and more prominent acoustically. Most likely due to its original Brazilian rosewood bridge and saddle (full-depth one had TOM for better intonation).
It's from 1960, so it has a slim neck profile but with a desirable 1 11/16 (43mm) nut width. The tailpiece is an aged replica. Apart from that, it's all original. It has some small dents, scratches and nice lacquer checking expected to its age. It plays easy with the action set at 1.5mm 1st string and at 2mm 6th string. It can go lower than that if you wish so!
I got it from @JezWynd , who got it from Guncotton guitars and carried over a receipt to me. I hope folks don't mind me pinging them in my post
It comes with its original alligator case (which had seen better days), as well as with a proper sturdy Epiphone branded hard-case.
I'd like £2300 for it which is the same I paid on the forum. They do seem to go up in prices now though. I believe it's the last vintage Gibson model from the golden era which hasn't sky-rocked yet?
Collection from Cambridge is highly preferred as it comes with two cases. I have a shipping box from ES-125TDC, so if you are willing to arrange a delivery at your risks and costs, we can do that! And of course do let me know if you are around, I'll see if we can arrange a meetup. Sorry for the reflection of me on the photos of the back, the light these days is tricky!

WITHDRAWN Eastman T64/v with Callaham Bigsby upgrade. I think I don't even need to explain how good these guitars are for the money. You probably won't be able to find a better quality vs cost deal, especially for ES-330 type. I got it from @DB1 who does much better photos than I, but I hope mine will reflect some of its beauty as well.
It's a non-pickguard version with a 1.72" nut width and a medium chunk neck. It sits very well in hands and plays smoothly. I've upgraded Bigsby with Callaham parts as I truly hated changing strings on it. The Callaham upgrade makes it much easier to do + they give more sustain and easier playability. I'll put original parts into its beautiful stylish case if a buyer would like to put back some of them (although I cannot imagine why would they really want to do that!).
I'd like £1200 for it, which is a bit more than what I paid to Dave as the full Callaham upgrade did cost quite a bit!
Collection from Cambridge, or I can meet somewhere close to it where trains/buses go.

And for adding that those P90s are Lollar, I forgot to mention that!
That's unfortunate for me
As I set on keeping ES-125TDC, I now have a good shipping box from it. So if a buyer is willing to arrange deliver at their risks and cost, I think we can do that! Here is a photo of shipping box and packaging materials:
- Fulltone TTE (Tube Tape Echo)
- Martin 0-15M Westside edition (with 1 3/4 nut width and shorter scale)
- lower-end vintage electrics or archtops (Harmony, Kay, Silvertone etc.)
@TheMarlin I believe you missed "c" in "addition"
And Monday bump!
