Description:
From blues to jazz to rock, there’s just no substitute for the vibrant tone and supreme playing comfort of the Gibson Custom 1959 ES-335 Reissue Ultra-Light Aged semi-hollowbody electric guitar.
Its iconic semi-hollow body with a sustain-enhancing, feedback-fighting center block, Custombucker Alnico III pickups, and custom wiring harness make this ’59 ES-335 Reissue play and sound like a coveted classic, while its scrumptious Murphy Lab aged finish gives you the look and feel of a prized vintage treasure.
A super-stable solid mahogany neck and Plek’d Indian rosewood fretboard with rolled binding gives this premium guitar a smooth, precision feel to accommodate diverse playing styles. The Gibson Custom ’59 ES-335 Reissue is a meticulous reissue of a legendary electric guitar that helped shape the sound of modern music.
Under the leadership of Master Artisan Tom Murphy, Gibson Custom Shop’s Murphy Lab performs one specific function: to craft artfully aged instruments using the most cutting-edge tools available. These guitars are targeted to one of four distinct levels of age and wear, ranging from Ultra-Light to Ultra-Heavy. This 1959 ES-335 Reissue features Ultra-Light aging, with unique lacquer checking but minimal playing wear. It’s as if the guitar spent most of its life in its case. VOS patina hardware puts the final touch on this exquisite instrument.
