Gibson ES-335 Vintage Ebony Ebony Electric Guitar with Case

ES-335 - The Timeless Tradition

From its inaugural appearance in 1958, the Gibson ES-335 has remained an unmatched standard, prized for its versatility and rich tonal palette.

Its laminated maple/poplar/maple body and solid maple centerblock help control feedback while retaining the airy resonance that has made the ES-335 beloved by players across genres—from warm jazz to articulate rock, and all sonic stops in between. A mahogany neck with a Rounded C profile provides a comfortable grip, whether you’re playing chords in the lower register or exploring melodic lines further up. The bound rosewood fretboard with acrylic Dot inlays offers a timeless aesthetic, while Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons complete the classic headstock look. Paired with a lightweight aluminum ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece, players can count on precise, stable tuning and accurate intonation for every performance.

Calibrated T-Type humbuckers™ deliver a dynamic blend of vintage-inspired sweetness and modern definition, while hand-wired controls with Orange Drop® capacitors in the tone circuit ensure responsive, musical adjustments to volume and tone.

Renowned for its comfort and remarkable sonic adaptability, the ES-335 is a standout choice for players seeking timeless tone and contemporary reliability in one inspiring instrument.
