From the year 2011 comes this killer Gibson Custom Shop ES-355 with a Bigsby in the luxurious Ebony finish. This Custom Shop beauty was made in the legendary Gibson's Memphis facility and brings you the absolute best from this iconic semi-hollow guitar with its legendary design and incredible craftsmanship.
This Gibson ES-355 comes with a resonant carved maple body with a feedback resistant maple block. As a Custom Shop model it features the traditional hide glue construction to bring you vintage authenticity and incredbile projection. The body comes with tasteful multi-ply binding, that contrasts the rich Ebony finish, completing the elegant look. The single-piece mahogany neck has a 50/60s "C" profile that fits the hands nicely with a sleek rolled binding. The ebony fingerboard has mother of pearl block inlays and 22 medium jumbo frets. There is also a classic split diamond headstock inlay and bounded headstock for legendary appointments.
With a pair of '57 Classic Humbuckers this Gibson ES-355 is packed with warm, full tones that bring to life the projection and depth of its acoustics. These pickups have an excellent output and are perfect for any style and come with gold covers. You can keep it clean for jazz or blues or crank up the higher gain for rock and beyond. Easily dial it in with individual volume and tone controls for each pickup and its pickup selector.
Stacked with gold hardware this Gibson ES-355 is both visually and structurally impressive. Stay in tune with gold Grover tuners. Maintain intonation and sustain with it gold tune-o-matic bridge, and dig deep with the expressive gold Bigsby B7 tremolo.
This legendary instrument is in good condition with honest player wear - it's definitely not minty fresh, as there are dings, marks and signs of real use. The guitar comes with its certificate of authenticity and its original hardshell case, which also has a lot of wear but still functions perfectly.
