Gibson '59 ES-335 Reissue 2023 - VOS Vintage Natural
Our users rate Reverb
Light weight!!! Gotta love a blond 335!! KIller Antique natural color!! This one has an exceptional slinky feel when playing /bending notes!! Sounds fabulous!!! The full "C" 59 neck makes bending notes a breeze!! The pro installed Dimarzio 35th Anniversary PAF pickups have a huge powerful clear tone with a lot of 335 honk!!! These pickups put this guitar over the top as far as tone goes!!! Cosmetically some pick scratches on the pick guard and a couple very small imperfection on the binding back side edge of body (see pic) !!! Real clean condition over all!!! Truss rod works as it should!! A ton of case candy including hang tags and COA (see pic)!!! Original hard shell '59 case is real clean also!!! Every player needs a blond 335!!
