Equipped with two Gibson Custom Bucker pickups, the ES-335 Reissue produces premium vintage tones suited to blues and rock.

The traditional hand-wired three-way circuit with individual volume and tone controls for each humbucker and paper-in-oil capacitors allows precise tonal shaping.
The historic authenticity continues with the hardware. The aluminum tailpiece paired with the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, developed under Ted McCarty, ensures accurate intonation and comfortable string action. Kluson tuners with the historically correct "single line, double ring" design provide precise and stable tuning, completing the authentic vintage experience of the Gibson 1964 ES-335 Reissue.
