Description
Our Take:
These new ES-335s have all been crafted on the original 335 presses - which Gibson have been retooling and perfecting for the better part of the past year, thus recreating one of the most versatile instruments in their catalogue to extreme period accuracy. These guitars are comfortable, lightweight tone machines thanks to the AAA figured maple and new Calibrated T-Type humbuckers - and very easy on the eyes, sporting gorgeous gloss finishes such as this one in Sixties Cherry.
Gibson's Take:
The Gibson ES-335 Figured is the perfect blend of form and function. Crafted with a thermally engineered maple centerblock, and thermally engineered quarter-sawn Adirondack spruce bracing, players will be impressed by the lightweight feel and expanded range of tonal capabilities. Equipped with high-end appointments like our hand-wired control assembly with orange drop capacitors, Gibson's new Calibrated T-Type humbucking pickups, Vintage Deluxe style tuners and light weight Aluminum ABR-1 bridge and stop bar tailpiece anchored with steel thumb-wheels and studs. The AAA figured maple is set off by staggering gloss finishes including Sixties Cherry, Antique Natural, and Iced Tea.
