Tone Shop Guitars Made to Measure Exclusive '64 ES-335 in Double Gold

A Golden Era, Reimagined

Inspired by what many consider the peak year of the ES-335, this Tone Shop Guitars exclusive Made to Measure 1964 Reissue pays tribute to the model’s historic roots — and turns heads with a custom finish that’s anything but traditional.

Built by the Gibson Custom Shop to exacting '64 specs and aged by the Murphy Lab, this ES-335 delivers that unmistakable semi-hollow tone with a bold new aesthetic. The Ultra Light Aged Double Gold nitro finish is unlike anything you'll find in a standard lineup — classy, unique, and dripping with vintage swagger. And the black stinger on the back of the headstock adds just the right touch of attitude.

With a solid maple centerblock, authentic medium-jumbo frets, hide glue construction, and a comfortably familiar '64 Medium C neck profile, this one feels instantly like a classic. And when you plug it in, the unspotted Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups respond with rich, articulate tones — from smooth jazz to gritty rock and everything in between.

This is a guitar that honors history, but refuses to blend in.
