Gibson ES 335. don't know what the grain is, but it's a rare finish. possibly a custom shop model? i'm not up to date with the line. very expensive, but you can get cheap look alikes handy.

1974ish Gibson ES 355TD Stereo. It has the rare Lyre tremola and Gibson embossed pups. Stereo wiring. The Walnut finish is so choice.

Laminated maple neck
Ebony fingerboard, pearl block inlays
Gold plated hardware throughout
Tune-O-Matic bridge
Twin Humbucking pickups with separate tone and volume controls
Three position toggle switch
Gibson Lyre Vibrato tailpiece.
six-position Vari-Tone control

oh, and I believe it's called Peanut
