This ES-150 is the second generation model of the instrument made famous by Charlie Christian in the 1930s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original 1936 version of the instrument came about when retailers Montgomery Ward and Spiegel contracted Gibson to build the models for them. Known as the 1270 model through Montgomery Ward and the Spiegal 34-S, they originally lacked any Gibson identification before Gibson started creating their own \"ES-150\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first Gibson version was marketed as a higher end ES model with a solid carved spruce top, maple back and sides, mahogany neck, Brazilian rosewood fingerboard, a Gibson bar pickup, and an adjustable truss rod. By the 1950s it had a fully laminated maple body, trapezoid inlays, and a P-90 pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guitar has typical wear expected from a guitar this age with finish wear, finish checking, scratches, scuffs, chips, and impressions. The tuners and tailpiece have been replaced with the originals in the hardcase that comes with this guitar, otherwise everything else is all original. Overall this 1951 ES-150 is in great playing condition with light fretwear making it ready for the studio, the stage, or solely as a collection piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSerial #: 19972\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Type: Hollow\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Material: Maple\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Material: Brazilian Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInlays: Pearloid Trapezoid\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge: Brazilian Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTailpiece: Trapeze\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickup: Gibson P-90\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickup Output: 6.5k\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 5lbs 8oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor this item, returns accepted within 3 days of receiving merchandise.
