Birdseye top and and body. 1960s neck. Original ES335 period accurate weight and make.

The Gibson ES335 Birdseye Exotic Woods Electric Guitar has been used by many artists from Chuck Berry to Larry Carlton, Freddie King to Alvin Lee, and has proven to be one of the most popular and adaptable guitars ever created. Touted as the “wonder-thin” body by Gibson when it launched in 1958, the ES-335 represented a ground-breaking innovation in electric guitars. With its solid maple center block and f-hole semi-hollowbody design, the ES-335 effectively delivers the singing sustain of a solidbody while preserving the tone and richness of a full hollowbody—with no feedback.

The Custom Shop made several changes to more accurately reflect an original ES-335, including a period-correct center block resulting in ten to fifteen percent weight reduction, a slightly thinner body, and lower binding height.
