Product Description

Gibson's Historic Reissue ES-335 is back and better than ever — thanks to a year of studying, scanning and listening to original examples. The expert craftspeople at Gibson Custom Shop have rendered every contour, profile, inlay and colour of the priceless vintage models in magnificent detail, and the result is a playing and ownership experience that will keep you coming back for more!

The 1961 Reissue models utilise rounded cutaways, SlimTaper neck profiles scanned from the originals, dot inlays and vintage-replica parts. The Murphy Lab 'Heavy Aged' finish treatment, paired with heavily aged hardware, simulates decades of substantial playing wear — giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original example from Gibson's "Golden Era".
