"Based on his own ES-175, the Herb Ellis ES-165 gives a warm Jazz tone with a Floating Jazz, Johnny Smith pickup with gold cover, Figured Maple body, and an expertly inlayed rosewood fingerboard. Includes free Gibson hardshell case - a $159 value."

A luxury Custom Shop special based on Herb's classic ES-175.

The BJB floating pickup produces warm, round, and articulate tone for peerless jazz flavor. Single volume knob on the pickguard keeps it simple and keeps the top wood pristine for amazing resonance. Gold-plated hardware, including the unique bridge, combine with split parallelogram inlays on the rosewood fretboard and full binding with multi-ply on top to create stunning visual elegance.
