Used 2021 Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-355 – VOS
Sonic Evaluation
This ES-335 is an absolute delight! It's has a rich, robust voice and exceptional touch sensitivity, which gives you an almost acoustic-esque level of dynamic control. The attac kis percussive and articulate, and you can really change the timbre of the guitar by altering your right-hand technique. Overall, it sounds quite open, and it has a lovely overtone presence across the board, lending chords an extra sparkle and crunch and making single-notes sound meaty. The bridge pickup has focused punchy low-end and mids to go with a gorgeous open, sparkling treble response, the neck pickup is thick and juicy but maintains excellent clarity. If you're looking for a dynamic ES-335 with an expansive, three-dimensional voice, check this serial out!
Condition Report
This 2021 ES-335 is in fantastic shape! It shows hardly any signs of use, and its frets are nearly perfect. There is some light finish disruption on the top around the input area, but that's all there is to report. This lean, clean, semi-hollow machine also comes with its original hardshell case!
