Lay your hands on this beauty and you may never want to put it down! Adirondack spruce bracing and a pair of MHS humbuckers make this guitar a tone beast.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
3-ply maple/poplar/maple top Long sustain with crisp, bright tone
Mahogany neck Great sustain, strength, and warm tone
Dark rosewood fretboard Hand-selected for optimal tone and beauty
MHS humbuckers Sweet tone made just for semi-hollowbody guitars

Many would argue that early versions of the 1958 Gibson ES-335 are the holy grail of semi-hollowbody guitars. With the 2018 1958 ES-335 Premiere, we took the "dot neck" that started it all and gave it the "Premiere" treatment. All of the historically accurate features are there, like the original "Micky Mouse ear" body shape, the unbound '58 rounded neck with dark rosewood fingerboard, and a '58 Burst finish. However, thermally engineered maple centerblock and quarter sawn Adirondack spruce bracing take tone and resonance to new levels. Paired with our MTC Historic control assembly and PAF-style MHS Humbucking pickups, you will wonder if a 1958 ES-335 has ever sounded this good.
