Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 ES-355 – Classic White VOS
Epiphone Inspired by Gibson Custom 1959 ES-355 in Classic White, developed in collaboration with Gibson Custom Shop.
This model recreates the top-of-the-line 1959 ES-355, featuring the traditional semi-hollow construction, bound body, ebony fingerboard with mother-of-pearl block inlays, split-diamond headstock inlay, and gold hardware.
A particularly notable feature is the pair of genuine Gibson Custombucker pickups, paired with hand-wired CTS potentiometers, Mallory capacitors, and Switchcraft components.
The Classic White VOS finish is complemented by a bound tortoiseshell pickguard and gold Grover Rotomatic tuners.
Condition
