Gibson ES-335 50s Vintage Natural w/case

The Gibson ES-335 50s Vintage Natural combines classic ES semi-hollow construction with the fuller neck carve and visual details associated with the earliest 1958-era models. Its three-ply maple/poplar/maple body and solid maple centerblock create a responsive, resonant instrument with impressive sustain and reduced feedback, making it equally suited for studio sessions and live performance.

The Vintage Natural gloss nitrocellulose finish highlights the wood grain and vintage styling, while the pair of Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups delivers warm, articulate tones inspired by original Patent Applied For humbuckers. Hand-wired controls with Orange Drop capacitors complete the package with smooth, usable tonal shaping throughout the sweep of each control.

Highlights

• Vintage Natural gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish
• Maple/poplar/maple semi-hollow body with maple centerblock
