The 2013 run is particularly notable because Gibson introduced several historically accurate upgrades that year, including the one-piece rosewood fingerboard, hide-glue construction, improved Custom Buckers, and more vintage-correct hardware and cosmetics. Many ES-335 enthusiasts consider these among the better modern reissues.
