The frets are tall and show light wear. Originally, this was a 1963 ES-335. For an unknown reason, the instrument was sent back to Gibson in 1968 to be re-necked. In addition to it having a 1968 spec neck being installed, the hardware and electronics from that era were also installed. Furthermore, while at the factory, Gibson re-serialized the instrument with a 1968 serial number.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase Details: \u003c\/b\u003eHardshell Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Reemes Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53838771093823,"sku":"RMC-MUS-G11480707","price":3747.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0990\/7535\/9039\/files\/gibson-electric-guitars-semi-hollow-gibson-es-335-re-neck-cherry-1968-gibson-es-335-re-neck-cherry-1968-u7023272202-1160908089.jpg?v=1782094627","url":"https:\/\/www.reemesmusic.com\/products\/gibson-es-335-re-neck-cherry-1968-2289366","provider":"Reemes Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
