The Gibson Custom Shop 1961 reissue ES-335 is the pinnacle of Gibson Custom Shop craftsmanship. The expert craftspeople at Gibson Custom Shop have paid attention to every little detail to ensure that this instrument would do justice to the time period. From vintage replica parts to recreated contours, it all comes together with excellence.
