Product Description

zZounds is an
authorized Gibson dealer

Few guitars have made a more significant impact on music in the past 60 years than the ES-335. In developing the ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue, Gibson has captured all the hallmark tone and quality of the classic era of semi-hollowbodies. The warm, rich textures, the exceptional balance and playability, the distinct look and classic vibe; the ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue delivers all the very best in ES-335 excellence.

A True Jazz Icon

With its full-bodied tone and deep sustain, the ES-335 has most commonly been considered a jazz guitar. The ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue uses a laminated maple body, solid maple center block, and '57 classic humbuckers to achieve the classic tonal character that made the ES-335 an instant jazz standard in 1958. Included are two volume and two tone knobs, and a three-way selector switch to dial in outstanding rhythm or solo tones. The neck is a single piece of mahogany crafted in a 1960 slim taper profile for smooth playability and comfortable feel. While jazz has always been the ES-335's bread and butter, the guitar remains extremely versatile, wielded by such rock luminaries as Chuck Berry and Alex Lifeson of Rush.

Vintage Flair and Satin Finish

The ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue sports an array of vintage features to match its classic tone. The tuners are in the vintage tulip-style tradition, and the dot inlays replicate those of some of the earliest ES-335. The ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue uses an economic satin lacquer finish on the body which not only looks great, but also helps this model retain its attractive price.

Features:

- Laminated maple back and sides with solid maple centerblock
- Dual '57 classic humbucker pickups for vintage Gibson tone
- Comfortable 1960 slim taper neck profile.
- Single-piece mahgonay neck with rosewood fingerboard
- Vintage tulip-style tuners with classic dot inlays and nickle hardware
- Included Gibson hardshell case

The Gibson ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue delivers all the classic tone of vintage Gibson semi-hollowbody. With an included hardshell case, the ES-335 Satin Dot Reissue offers tremendous value in an absolutely classic guitar. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Gibson products.

"A GIBSON 335 AT THE PRICE OF A LES PAUL....BUT WITHOUT ANY SACRAFICEIN TONE, PLAYABILITY, OR VERSATILITY....SURELY TO MAKE LOT;"

Sound: The tone of this 335 due to the satin finsih IMO is better than my black and other colored 335's that all the pores of the wood are filled. I bought mine when they first came out and instead of a matte finish mine is more of a trasparent finish and the wood grain is wild and looks gorgeous and I beleieve just like when the Bealtes sanded off the finish on their Casino's I beleive tis guitars gives off more tone than more expensive models. This IS NOT a BASEMENT MODEL you are't paying for the top, I could care less what they look like it's what they sound like and how versatile they are tonally and this is...from classical to rock to the BLUES it is perfect. Alone or in a power trio it stands out, recording it sounded great and when i used an OPEN G tuning for slide it was fantastic. AS soon as you get this guitars put oin BUMBLEE BEE CAPACITORS and change the strings to DR PURE BLUES 11'2 and it gets evern wamrer and shrper in it;s attack. Changing the post is apersonal desire. I use a a 65 DELUXE REVERB AND PRINCETON to play through and a 66 AMPER REVERB ROCKET...HEAVEN !!!! Feature: I like that fact that this guitars is bare bones......this way the player can modify ot to there specs and tonal requirements. Everything on it is perfect and you can pick and choose what you want to upgrade, but as I see it a BONE NUT Ease of Use: FALLS INTO YOUR HANDS, like an old pair of slippers on your feet after ahard days work. A decent tube amp and a good cable and you;re ready to go no need for pedals to get GREAT TONE. VERY PLAYABLE....only problem may be for shorter guys and guys with short arms...I would suggest a 339 or 336 for those people. overall this is a great ax !!! Quality: Mine as I said was ordered before the public knew they were even comoing out so it is the 10th one made...usually the first few hundred are made better....well the red one a l year later is just as good. NO PROBLEMS, but then again with 37 GIBSOIN'S in my arsenal NOT ONCE have I need the WARANTY !!!! I always have a back up.....you better if your income is based on how well you play. Worst aspect......NONE !@!!!! ONECE AGASIN THIS IS NOT A DISCOUNT 335....the only major difference is the MAPLE TOP, machanically the only differenceis the KLUSON TUNERS vs GROVERS...SO I expect it to last as long as I treat it like it deserves to be treated wuith kindness and preventative maintainenece. Value: YOU CAN:T GET MUCH THESE DAYS QUALITY WISE FOR THIS PRICE.....SO I WOULD CALL IT A TEN as far as a good deal/ Manufacturer Support: GIBSON CUSTOM SERVICE 1-800-4-GIBSON CUSTOMER SERVICE 24/7 ----365 !!! WHAT MORE CAN YA ASK FOR !!!??? My upgrades are simle BUMBLEE BEE:S CAP'S and different strings, strap locks and change from covered pups to a set of 57 classic ZEBRA:S The Wow Factor: WHAT ELSE IS COOLER THAN A BLACK GIBSON.... A BLAZCK HARLEY, CORVETTE MERCEDES BENZ????? BEING BARE BONES, IT IS NOT THE CENTER OF ATTENTION WHAT I DO WITH IT IS !!11! Overall: NO REASON TO REPLACE IT....I WISH I COULD GET A TWIN TO THE ONE I HAVE. I PLAY IT MORE THAN MY VINTAGE ONES.YES I WOULD REPLACEIT IF IT WAS STOLEN. WHAT I LIKE MOST IS IT IS A BLUE COLLAR GUITAR AND I AM A A BLUE COLLAR BLUES MAN I LIKE EVERYTHGING ABOUT IT AND HAVE A CALLS 5 QUILT TOP ..ONLY DIFFERENCE IS LOOKS !!!! OH YEAH AND THE EXTRA 2 GRAND FOR THE QUILT TOP.

"this is a awesome guitar. Sound will blow you away. overall it worth every penny if u have the bucks."

Sound: sound is great. better than most guitars ive ever played. Feature: my guitar didn't come with anything. Ease of Use: it is very playable. a little tweek and now the actin is so nice. Easy to get great sounds from it. picks up every little noise. Quality: it is very reliable as i no it wont break unless its misused. very solid build and the guy that ownz this guitar has had it for a couple years and says that it has never had any problems like wires comeing unsoldered. he says he's never had to do much eccept clean her and change the strings. it wood be great for the rode if handled with care. eccept its a lil expensiveif something tragic happens Value: this guitar is definatly worth the price. In the long run they'll probably end up gaining value Manufacturer Support: i never did my frend did. he says theyre real cool. and no alot about guitars The Wow Factor: it looks very origanal. it depends on the person though. some people like the crazy looking v's with weird colors and some people prefer that older original big looking guitar. The guitar reminds me of a wize old man. I like it. Overall: As all my guitars go, I buy them cuzz i no ill be satified with them forever. just because I get a new guitar doesn meen i wont jam on that one too. I dont accually own this guitar but If I did id be satified as long as i play it
