Product Description
What could be better than the legendary ES-335? The ES-355! The ES-355 starts with all the features that make the ES-335 iconic — the feedback-resistant semi-hollow construction, the two humbucking pickups with individual volume and tone controls, the unrivalled sonic versatility and exceptional playability — and kicks it into overdrive with an Ebony fingerboard that's adorned with '50s pattern mother of pearl block inlays and 22 authentic medium jumbo frets.
A split diamond headstock inlay, multi-ply binding and gold hardware further reinforce the fact that the ES-355 is the top of the line ES model. This expertly crafted Custom Shop rendition's attention to detail makes it an outstanding recreation of the legendary and highly-prized 1959 ES-355. It features Ultra Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab.
The Murphy Lab Ultra-Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of light play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era. A five latch Lifton case is also included.
