This is a 17\" wide guitar (pre-war ES-150's are 16\") with single binding on the body, dot inlay on the fingerboard, and the early narrower coil P-90 pickup. The headstock logo is the 1940's \"joined dot\" block script. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ES-150 would be upgraded to pearloid trapezoid inlays the next year, making this a fairly rare version of the model. These are good sounding guitars, more useful for a variety of musical styles than many people think. This one plays very well and has a great vibe.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOverall length is 42 in. (106.7 cm.), 17 in. (43.2 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 3 1\/4 in. (8.2 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 25 1\/2 in. (648 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5\/8 in. (41 mm.). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll original except 1970's small-shaft Grover tuners installed (no routing of the headstock involved!). Average light playwear. No repairs, just a nice playing, great-sounding original 1940's jazzbox. Includes a very nice original period Lifton 17\" hard case. Excellent Condition.","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853198741644,"sku":"3258","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_bf319164-2d60-4cec-85c9-b5deff25e21f.jpg?v=1774331835","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/gibson-es-150-arch-top-hollow-body-electric-guitar-1949-3258","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
