The Soul / Blues / Jazz / Rock sound of the 60s…These MOST RECENT / LATEST MODEL Custom Shop Historic Reissue ES-335 guitars are back and better than ever thanks to a year of studying, scanning, and listening to original examples…

The luthiers at Gibson Custom Shop have rendered every contour, profile, inlay and colour of the priceless vintage models in magnificent detail and built them using original pressing machines, hot hide glue (for the neck – body and fretboard – neck), long neck tenon join and ultra thin period correct nitrocellulose finish…

The unpotted CustomBucker III pickups are fantastic (just have a listen to the demos)…

This is not a “Made in USA” “Gibson USA” production line instrument but a Custom Shop (hand) made guitar built from carefully (hand) selected tonewood…

At this level you get top quality, second to none playability, setup and sound.

This guitar is in 9/10 condition, means that there’s some minimal playing marks on it. Little mark on the headstock and little mark on the back. Please check the HD photos and videos! Zero fret wear, zero dye bleed. It’s not been played but the finish on these guitars are super sensitive and thin…it will get marked even if you just look at it 😉 any way… nothing serious. No dings, dents or buckle rash just some unserious marks. If you bought the “Murphy Lab Aged” version that would have 10x bigger marks all around for £1K extra…

As always, it’s all original, comes with its original hard shell case (check its condition on the photos / videos)  and candy (including all the hang tags and Gibson Custom Shop certificate -> also video’ed, photo’ed…)

These models are made by Gibson Custom in Nashville and very very expensive instruments…if you want to buy one don’t hesitate too long as there are not many on the market, definitely not in this 9/10, ALL ORIGINAL condition with all case candy, certificate etc…

This is a £5K+ guitar brand new at the high street guitar shops or £5800 directly from Gibson…

Why would you spend that much when you can save a lot on this great second hand example?
