Product Description

Classic ES-335 Features at an Unprecedented Price The ES-335 Studio delivers major semi-acoustic electric guitar tone, looks and feel at a minor price, and all with the 100% American-made quality of Gibson Memphis. Legendary ES-335 lines, genuine Gibson humbucking pickups, top quality TonePros and Grover hardware, and the popular stripped-down Studio Series ethos make this guitar an unbeatable value, but a full-bore performer by any standards. In short, its the easiest way to get your foot into the ES-335 door, without compromising an ounce of your precious tone. Available in your choice of Ebony or Vintage Sunburst finish, in hand-sprayed nitrocellulose lacquer, naturally. Body and neck Crafted just like the original ES-335, introduced in 1958, the ES-335 Studio has a body made from laminated maple with an arched top, two f-holes, and a solid maple core for enhanced clarity and sustain. Its stripped-down Studio ethos is revealed in a lack of binding and pickguard. A glued-in neck carries an unbound rosewood fingerboard with elegant dot inlays, and a simplified headstock with gold Gibson logo. Pickups and electronics Two genuine Gibson humbucking pickups translate timeless PAF-like tone, with warmth and depth from a 57 Classic in the neck position and more crunch and sting from a Super 57 in the bridge. They are routed through a single master volume and tone control, with quality CTS pots, an Orange Drop tone cap, and three-way selector switch. Hardware Top-quality hardware includes genuine Grover Rotomatic tuners, and TonePros AVR2 locking bridge and long-anchor tailpiece studs for optimum resonance and sustain. Protective case The ES-335 Studio comes protected in a Gibson hardshell case.
