About this listing
This 2022 guitar is technically used, but completely as new. Also, this is perhaps the coolest Murphy Lab guitar we have ever seen. The aging on this one really works, is not overdone, and really looks like an old guitar. On top of that, it simply just SOUNDS like an old guitar. Full credit to Gibson on this one, it’s jsut fabulous.From its inaugural appearance in 1958, the Gibson ES-335 set an unmatched standard and is still considered to be one of the most versatile electric guitars ever made. The Historic Reissue ES-335 is back and better than ever, thanks to a year of studying, scanning, and listening to original examples.The expert craftspeople at the Gibson Custom Shop have rendered every contour, profile, inlay, and color of the priceless vintage ES™ models in magnificent detail. The result is a playing and ownership experience that will keep you coming back for more. This 1959 ES-335 Reissue Ultra Heavy Aged model features the classic ES semi-hollow maple/poplar/maple body with a solid maple centerblock for improved sustain and feedback resistance, as well as rounded double cutaways.The solid mahogany neck features a comfortable Medium C-shape profile, scanned from originals, and is topped with an Indian rosewood fretboard equipped with 22 authentic medium jumbo frets and complemented by pearloid dot inlays.The 1959 ES-335 Reissue Ultra Heavy Aged model is equipped with Kluson® single-line, single-ring tuners and vintage-replica parts, including an ABR-1 bridge, a lightweight aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece, and gold butyrate Top Hat knobs with dial pointers. The electronics include a pair of unpotted Custombucker humbucker™ pickups with Alnico 3 magnets and authentic profile nickel silver covers, CTS® audio taper potentiometers, and paper-in-oil tone capacitors.It has also received Ultra Heavy Aging from the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Ultra Heavy Aged finish treatment, paired with heavily aged hardware, simulates decades of heavy play wear, giving the 1959 ES-335 Reissue Ultra Heavy Aged the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the first Gibson Golden Era. An aged brown and pink Lifton™ hardshell case is also included to complete the package and help keep this beautiful guitar safe when you’re out on the road.SPECIFICATIONSBodyBody shape: ES-335Body style: ESBody material: 3-ply Maple/Poplar/MapleCenterblock: Solid mapleBinding: Single-ply RoyaliteBody finish: Murphy Lab Aged Nitrocellulose LacquerWeight relief: NoneSource: Gibson body specsNeckNeck material: Solid mahoganyNeck profile: Medium CFingerboard material: Indian rosewoodFingerboard radius: 304.8mm / 12″Scale length: 628.65mm / 24.75″Nut material: NylonNut width: 42.85mm / 1.69″Frets: 22 Authentic Medium-JumboInlays: Pearloid dotJoint: Long tenon, hide glue fitSource: Gibson neck specsElectronicsNeck pickup: Custombucker Alnico 3Bridge pickup: Custombucker Alnico 3Pickups: unpotted Custombucker humbuckers with Alnico 3 magnets and authentic profile nickel silver coversControls: 2 volume, 2 tonePots/caps: CTS 500K audio taper potentiometers, paper-in-oil capacitorsPickup selector: 3-way SwitchcraftOutput jack: 1/4″ SwitchcraftSource: Gibson electronics specs and descriptionHardwareHardware finish: Nickel, Murphy Lab Heavy AgedBridge: ABR-1Saddle material: Nickel-plated brassTailpiece: Lightweight aluminum Stop BarTuning machines: Kluson single line, single ringTuner plating: NickelPickup covers: Authentic profile nickel silverMounting rings: Black M69 Medium & TallPickguard: Black 5-ply wide bevelControl knobs: Gold butyrate Top Hats with dial pointersSwitch tip: Amber CatalinStrap buttons: Cream plasticTruss rod: Authentic 1950s no-tubeTruss rod cover: Authentic stepped 2-plySource: Gibson hardware specsMiscellaneousFinish: Vintage NaturalAging level: Murphy Lab Ultra Heavy AgedCase: Aged Brown/Pink Lifton Reissue 5-latch caseAccessories: Certificate of AuthenticityHeadstock inlay: Gibson logo and Crown inlay, both in mother of pearlFactory string gauge: .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046Gibson model code: 59ES335UHVNNH1
