[size=+2]Gibson ES-5 Electric Archtop Guitar Description: Gibson ES-5 Electric Archtop and ES5 Switchmaster guitars
Available: 1949 to 1962 (also recently reissued by Gibson)
Case: Brown hardshell case with a pink lining was the top-end Gibson case. The mid-line case was a brown hardshell with a green or brown lining. 1961/1962 models may have a black hardshell case with a yellow lining.
Collectibility Rating: 1955 to 1960 models are the more desirable than 1949-1954 model because of the volume/tone control layout and the switch. 1957 to 1960 models are better still because of the humbucking pickups (though I still like the sounds of the black P-90 pickups used on pre-1957 models). 1961/1962 models with the sharp cutaway are less desirable because of the cutaway, neck size, and more cherry-red sunburst.
Production: 1949-1956 sunburst:577, 1949-1955 natural:331, 1955-1961 switchmaster sunburst:334, 1956-1961 switchmaster natural:167
General Comments: Second fanciest archtop by Gibson, just behind the L-5c. Made as a fully electric version of the L-5c. A maple plywood top was used (instead of solid spruce) to limit feedback. Unfortunately the plywood construction limits collectibility to some degree. A low production guitar. For example, have seen a late 1954 ES-5 switchmater. Body/neck made in 1954 (with a white A17xxx serial number tag) with 3-ply body binding, but with a switch and six knobs (and ES-175 gold tailpiece). Guitar was probably finished in 1955, nearly a year after the body and neck were made.
1949 Gibson ES-5 guitar introduction specs: 17" wide, rounded single cutaway, three P-90 pickups, three volume controls, one master tone control on cutaway bout, trapeze tailpiece with pointed ends and three raised parallelagrams (like an gold ES-175 tailpiece), laminiated beveled-edge pickguard, bound F-holes (a few early model with unbound F-holes), pointed-end fingerboard with 5-ply binding, large block fingerboard inlays, single bound peghead, crown peghead inlay, gold plated parts, brown sunburst or natural finish. Three piece neck with two pieces of maple and a thin layer of dark wood between them. 1955 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster specs: Six volume/tone knobs (separate volume and tone for each pickup), 4-way slotted switch on cutaway bout with a Telecaster style switch tip (labeled "1,2,3,ALL"), gold tune-o-matic ABR bridge (with no saddle retaining wire) on a rosewood base. Note 4 non-switchmaster ES-5 models were shipped as late as 1956. 1956 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster guitar specs: 5 ply top and back binding, tubular tailpiece with double-loop design. 1957 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster guitar specs: Humbucking pickups replace P-90 pickups. 1961 Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster guitar specs: pointed sharp cutaway, cherry red sunburst finish standard. Gibson ES-5 Switchmaster guitar discontinued 1962. Reissued in the late 1990s.
