Description
The Gibson ES-335 50s is a USA-made semi-hollow built around the original 1958 dot-neck configuration, and it's the most direct route to that early PAF-voiced ES-335 character without stepping into Custom Shop pricing. The layered maple/poplar/maple body with a solid maple centerblock gives you the openness of a hollow-body with enough feedback resistance to hold up on a loud stage. Calibrated Custombucker Alnico 3 humbuckers replicate late-1950s PAF voicing: the neck pickup delivers smooth sustain with clear harmonic response, while the bridge is punchy with articulate midrange bite. The hand-wired control cavity runs 500k pots and Orange Drop capacitors, giving the volume and tone controls a responsive, musical taper rather than an on/off feel. A Rounded C mahogany neck, 12" fingerboard radius, and 24.75" scale length make this a fuller, more substantial feel than a modern slim profile - players who like something to hold onto will appreciate it. The rosewood fingerboard and ABR-1 bridge are period-correct choices that contribute to the guitar's focused, woody midrange character. This guitar ships with a Gibson hardshell case, and every ES-335 50s sold here at Righteous Guitars includes our complimentary PLEK service and limited lifetime warranty.
