Description
Up for sale is a cool, rare and quite beautiful 1985 Gibson ES Artist in its original Natural Blonde finish over a nicely flamed maple top, top and neck. A previous owner removed the Moog electronics and while they are included we have no idea if they function or not. The back-plate appears replaced as do the knobs. The pickguard has also been replaced. The holes from the original mini switches have been capped. This example is in very good condition less some scattered finish checking and light play wear. This one plays well and sounds great! Pro setup in house and comes complete with a hard case. Model info below:
