Gibson 335-S Solidbody Electric Guitar - Vintage Sunburst
Where do you go if you dig the look, vibe, and tone of Gibsons legendary ES335, but need a smaller, sleeker, solidbody guitar for your live and studio needs? You grab a new 335S from Gibson USA, naturally! Built with the look and feel of the original semihollow ES335, and using solid stocks of the same tonewood employed in that thinlines laminated body and sides, the 335S is a fully solid electric, with all the advantages in tone and performance that such designs have to offer. Dressed in your choice of gorgeous nitrocellulose Vintage Sunburst or Silverburst finish with "reversezebrastriped" humbucking pickups and designed as a more compact version of the traditional "Mickey Mouse eared" doublecutaway ES335, with all of the superb upperfret access that that model has to offer, the 335S is a supremely powerful performer that knows no bounds of playing style or musical genre. In short, it kicks out solid tone wherever you point it.
To make it a true cousin of the original semihollow ES335, Gibson builds the 335S with a solid GradeA maple body. A GradeA maple neck is glued in, and carved in a comfortably rounded profile that measures .818" at the 1st fret and .963" at the 12th, with a Granadillo fingerboard that carries 22 mediumjumbo frets. Decorative touches are minimal, although tasteful dot position inlays link it to the first ES335s of 195860. A PLEKcut Corian nut complements the solid and sustainful pairing of a Tuneomatic bridge and stopbar tailpiece, while classic kidney button Grover tuners round off the smooth and efficient hardware selection up top.
