Delivering a rich and authentic tone, this ES-335 is super resonant and beautifully balanced; it just oozes that vintage Gibson appeal.

The neck is something special, crafted from Mahogany; it features a gorgeous bound dark Rosewood fingerboard, embellished with pearloid dot inlays. With 22 frets and a 24.75" scale length it feels smooth and comfortable, equally at home playing slick lead work or heavy chord strumming.

A pair of CustomBucker humbuckers delivers those classic '60s tones, deep, rich and resonant they offer great clarity. These PAF style pickups feature Alnico V and Alnico II magnets for a truly historic sound, this is as good as it gets!
