Gibson ES-335 Ultima Tree of Life Inlays Crimson Custom Shop Masterpiece Inverness Green

The Gibson ES-335 Ultima Crimson is a premium, Custom Shop version of the classic semi-hollow ES-335. It combines the legendary tone and construction of the original model with luxurious appointments and meticulous hand craftsmanship. The “Ultima” designation represents the highest tier of Gibson’s semi-hollow line — featuring ornate inlays, abalone and multi-ply bindings, gold hardware, and select tonewoods. The Crimson finish highlights the figure of the maple top with a deep, rich red hue and high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer. This model delivers the warm, open resonance of a semi-hollow body along with the playability and sustain of a solid-body guitar, wrapped in exceptional visual detail. The guitar has finish checking on some spot and a finish ding on the top of the headstock (see pictures), but no cracks or repairs. Comes with the red leather bound COA, checklist and original case. The weight is 4kg.
