Key Features
- 50s Rounded Medium C Neck – This neck profile is a very comfortable profile making chord changes and incredible riffs easier.
- Gibson Custombuckers - The Custombucker uses Alnico 3 magnets for a warm, sweet tone that accurately delivers the sonic characteristics of those highly cherished early humbuckers.
- Grover Tuners – Grover tuners are highly sought after due to their reputation of keeping guitars in tune for longer.
- Included Hardcase – This guitar comes with a fitted hardcase perfect for protecting the instrument in style.
The 1959 ES-355 features a 5-ply layered Maple/Poplar body with a solid Maple centerblock for sustain and feedback resistance, a one-piece Mahogany neck with a 50s Rounded Medium C profile, and an Ebony fretboard that is adorned with block mother of pearl inlays.
The Gibson-style "open book" headstock features the Split Diamond and Epiphone logo inlays in mother-of-pearl, along with gold Grover Rotomatic tuners and the Inspired by Gibson double diamond logo etched on the back.
The 1959 ES-355 is powered by a pair of Gibson Custombuckers that are hand-wired to CTS potentiometers, Mallory M capacitors, and a Switchcraft pickup selector switch and output jack. A brown and pink hardshell case with the Inspired by Gibson Custom logo is also included.
