[kj] OT - es295 sighting..

[Phillipps Marc]

That may be a refinish?

 

As far as I know they only built the 295 between 1952/58 and they were
all originally gold?

 

The ES175d was very similar and came in a variety of finishes

Thanks for the info, I really thought it was one, and in the unlikeliest
of hands, too.

 

Though I thought i'd read somewhere that there are (or, were) sunburst
es295s

along with all-black versions (Johnny Marr, i think?).

G001-129090

 

I'd hazard a guess at a Guild . . they have/had tailpieces that look a
lot like that 

 

Maybe one of these?

The other "not 295" giveaway is the fact it is sunburst

No -  definitely not Gibson. Plus it's got humbuckers rather than p90's.
Could be a Hagstrom...the modern one's have the same tailpiece.

Does that look like a Gibson es295 guitar

(at right, with Strawberry Switchblade)? 

I'm going by the tailpiece; I can't make out how thick the body is.
