The Gibson ES-335 50s revives the timeless character of the earliest ES-335 models delivering authentic late-50s style feel and tone in a beautifully crafted semi-hollow guitar.

A mahogany neck with a substantial Rounded C profile offers a satisfyingly vintage experience while the bound rosewood fretboard with acrylic dot inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets provides smooth and expressive playability. Loaded with Gibson Alnico 3 Custombucker pickups the ES-335 50s delivers the articulate warmth woody midrange and clarity of the most sought-after late-50s PAF humbuckers. Hand-wired controls an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge aluminium Stop Bar tailpiece and Vintage Deluxe tuners complete the vintage-inspired specification.
