Zac Brown

Lot 6. Zac Brown’s Personally-Played Signed Gibson Natural ES-335.

A Zac Brown Signed Gibson natural ES-335 electric guitar. The semi-hollow body six-string features a flamed maple, popular, and maple body with a nitrocellulose finish, mahogany neck, rosewood fretboard, and Classic ’57 neck and bridge pickups.

The first commercially available semi-hollow body guitar, the ES335 has been an instrument of choice for a number of influential rock, blues, and jazz players since it was first introduced in 1958. A guitar that bridges genres, the ES-335 fits an artist like Brown, whose music merges a unique range of styles.

Brown has inscribed a tribute to the instrument and signed in black felt pen below the f-hole on the left side of the body, “1st power steering guitar Zac Brown.”

Well-used, the guitar exhibits some scaling to the laminate, finish wear to the wood, the pickup covers, and other metal hardware, and some light scratches and scuffs. The guitar is accompanied by a beige hard shell case measuring 19.25”x45” and 7.5” and exhibits scuffing, scratches, and surface wear over all from road use.
