Step back into the golden era of electric guitar design. The Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-355 Reissue represents the absolute apex of Gibson's semi-hollow line. Originally introduced as the upscale sibling to the ES-335, the 355 pairs legendary double-cutaway versatility with high-end, elegant appointments.

This particular masterpiece features the highly coveted Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment in a striking, period-correct Sixties Cherry. Under the guidance of master artisan Tom Murphy, the Murphy Lab team painstakingly applies a proprietary nitrocellulose lacquer formula. The "Light Aged" designation delivers the distinct look, feel, and soul of a well-traveled, gently played vintage original. Expect subtle finish checking, lightly broken-in hardware patina, and edges that feel smooth and broken-in from the moment you pick it up.
