Gibson Vintage 1954 ES-295 Gold With OHSC - UsedThe Gibson ES 295 was introduced in 1952 and shared the same finish as the original Gibson Les Paul Goldtop. The ES 295 was in production from 1952 1958 and made famous by Elvis Presley's guitarist, Scotty Moore. Scotty played a similar ES 295 on the first Sun Records recordings in Memphis, TN such as "That's All Right" and "Good Rocking Tonight".

The Gibson ES-295 was introduced in 1952 and shared the same finish as the original Gibson Les Paul Goldtop. The ES-295 was in production from 1952-1958 and made famous by Elvis Presley's guitarist, Scotty Moore. Scotty played a similar ES-295 on the first Sun Records recordings in Memphis, TN such as "That's All Right" and "Good Rocking Tonight". The signature floral pickguard adornment and the sharp Florentine cutaway are iconic images from early Elvis/Scotty performances and photographs.

When we first opened the original brown Lifton hardshell case with pink interior, it was amazing to see how clean this guitar is on the top. When we first open up any vintage Gibson guitar the first thing, we look at is the tuners. Seeing that they showed no signs of discoloration, we thought they may be replaced, and we were equally shocked to see the correct “PAT APPLD 2356766” was stamped on the inside before Kluson won the patent. The headstock has some dings and dents, typical of an instrument played and restrung countless times over the past 65+ years.

The neck shows minor checking throughout but is only “greening” behind the first position. At some point in the instrument's history clear “overspray” was applied to the back of the neck, assumed in an effort to stop the progression of the greening. The owner didn’t have a record of when it was done but blacklight testing seems to indicate it was early in the instrument’s life. This overspray was lightly wet-sanded and buffed to a smooth finish for playability. The neck is extremely comfortable with a first fret depth of .900” the thickens to just about 1” at the 10th fret and then 1.400” behind the twelfth where the heel has already begun in the carve. Action is low and consistent, currently measuring 5/64” on the low E at the 12th fret, to 1/16” at the high E. The nut is measuring just under 1 ¾” at 1.710”. The mahogany neck sports a dark rosewood fingerboard with no divots that still retains the original frets which have plenty of life in them.

There is some flaking around the binding showing the base layer of paint before the gold flakes were sprayed on which is really noticeable on the treble side near the 15th fret. You can see some examples around the edge of the guitar which is common since the nitrocellulose that was sprayed would shrink overtime exposing the base layer and wood. At the bottom of the guitar where the endpin is, the finish is cracked to the bass and treble side. The side/rims are crack free. Inside the body you can see the original sticker with the Serial #A17430.

The fully maple body still retains its original gold finish with a few hairline clearcoat cracks scattered throughout. This ES-295 features the 2 original cream covered P90s and knobs. The gold hardware has faded to a nice patina. There are 5 controls in total: individual volume and tone controls for each pickup and a 3-way pickup selector with an amber switch tip. Other key features include a trapeze tailpiece, a gold floral pickguard, parallelogram fingerboard inlays, and crown inlay on the headstock.

This instrument comes to us from its original owner and is one of the cleanest, original examples we have seen of this iconic big-bodied Gibson ES-295.

Wow.
Format: Kindle
Okay I’m usually not one for stand-alone’s I’m an avid series reader but my goodness am I so happy I read this! This story was brilliant & so absolutely mesmerizing. I loved reading about each character and their struggles as well as what helped them to move forward. The ending definitely brought tears to my eyes so hard. I truly wasn’t expecting some of what happened in this story. There is about to be a spoiler I am going to reveal so please stop reading if you don’t want the spoiler !!!! ⚠️ ⛔️ ‼️ I loved that the author didn’t do what most authors do with irredeemable male characters. I truly was hoping that Nate Jr. would be apart of the pack after the way he treated Astrea bc he truly didn’t deserve it. Though I must say you did a wonderful job or redeeming him as a person. I cried my eyes out when he walked into the story. I was truly terrified he was going to be a bad guy to the end. However you truly did him such a justice by having him realize his faults & having him redeem himself in the most wonderful way. I’m so sad that he didn’t get to hear how much his brother loved him & forgave him before dying. But again you wrote that ending so beautifully & I just can’t express how much I loved this story & how you took a different route than most authors I have read have. You are a remarkable author Cinder Blaze & I thank you generously for creating such a masterpiece.

Format: Kindle
I was pleasantly surprised by this omega verse book. This 1 definitely had a few new twists And I really enjoyed reading it. The main female character was a badass and awesome. She had 1 best friend I wish we could have seen a little bit more of their friendship in this book. Her relationship with the male characters was good not to contrived or super instantaneous. And we had some fun plot twists that I didn't expect. I wish we had more of a follow up on the situation with her family her background and her mother who was a wench. I would definitely recommend this book.

Wow. Just wow. An amazing read
Format: Kindle
This book was eloquently written, or should I say the authors writing style is very eloquent? I loved the characters, and the story was quite compelling. I absolutely loved the FMC, she's a BA who doesn't take any crap & gives as good as she gets. A certain person certainly got his just desserts & then some, the earlier scenes of which were quite satisfying, had me punching the air & everything haha. All in all 20/10, great read

My opinion
Format: Kindle
Let me preface this by saying I really liked the story and the characters however, this book is in desperate need of some sort of editing. It's not misspelled words or formatting, but continuous run on sentences. Redundancies within the sentences. There were a couple of paragraphs that I had to go back and reread 3 or 4 times. Overall, I'd say it was worth the read.

Beautiful
Format: Kindle
I love omegaverses I had looked at this one multiple times thinking it's just another book about cocky rock star guys that let fame get to their heads and there are parts like that so I wasn't 100% off. I started reading the second book and met the fmc Astraea from the first one,after she had a run in with the aphla from the gym.😁 it gave me the push to stop and read book one first and im so glad I did this book was amazing their was so many characters I fell in love with hoping they will find their happily ever after. the guys were great, the plot was 🎯, and the ending had me 😭😭😭. I was wondering how nate could ever redeem himself, and he did. the last scene with him was sad, but I also felt it was beautiful. thank you to the author for making a beautiful omegaverse book that gave me all the feels. now I'm jumping straight into book two.
