Gibson ES-335 Figured Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar - Sixties Cherry

Gibson ES-335 Figured Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar - Sixties Cherry

From its inaugural appearance in 1958, the Gibson ES-335 has remained an unmatched standard, prized for its versatility and rich tonal palette. The ES-335 Figured preserves the same classic construction while adding an AAA figured maple top for an elevated visual statement. Its laminated maple/poplar/maple body and solid maple centerblock help control feedback while retaining the airy resonance that has made the ES-335 beloved by players across genres—from warm jazz to articulate rock, and all sonic stops in between. A mahogany neck with a Rounded C profile provides a comfortable grip, whether you’re playing chords in the lower register or exploring melodic lines further up. The bound rosewood fretboard with acrylic Small Block inlays offers a timeless aesthetic, with Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons completing the classic headstock look. Paired with a lightweight aluminum ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, players can count on precise, stable tuning and accurate intonation for every performance. Calibrated T-Type humbuckers deliver a dynamic blend of vintage-inspired sweetness and modern definition, while hand-wired controls with Orange Drop capacitors in the tone circuit ensure responsive, musical adjustments to volume and tone. Renowned for its comfort and remarkable sonic adaptability, the ES-335 Figured stands as both a nod to the original 1958 model with a refined visual aesthetic. Its striking figured top, adaptable electronics, and comfortable design make it a standout choice for players seeking classic tone and modern reliability in one elegant package.
