Gibson Guitars - 2021 Custom Shop '61 ES-335 Ebony - Used

Description

This 2021 Custom Shop '61 ES-335 is a slick throwback to the early '60s version of this venerable legend. Made in Nashville, USA, it features the small guard and dot inlays, a combo only first introduced in '61, giving this guitar a subtle, yet unique flair. The VOS aged nitro lacquer is absolutely stunning giving it an understated look that doesn't scream modern relicing. Packed with dual AlNiCo 3 Custombucker pickups it's got all the PAF warmth and output you desire. 


This guitar's been extremely well taken care of with just some playwear scratches the guard and any other wear beautifully blending into its aged finish. Loaded with accurate details down to the Slim Taper neck profile, which was scanned of an original '61, along with the hide glue construction, this 335 is a stellar offering from the builders at the Custom Shop. Comes with the original hardshell case.
