Used 2023 Gibson Custom Wildwood Spec 1959 ES-355 Reissue – Gloss

King of the Semi-Hollows

Wildwoodians, this regal Wildwood Spec Custom Shop creation is a reissue of a 1959 ES-355. Although similar to the ES-355 in construction, the ES-355 sports a host of upgraded appointments that truly give it the air of semi-hollow royalty. We're talking an ebony fretboard, gold Grover tuners, block inlays, split diamond headstock inlay, and a bound celluloid pickguard! Of course, it's a sonic titan, too, thanks to its solid maple centerblock and glorious vintage-style Wildwood Spec Custombuckers, which deliver classic PAF vibes in spades. And, the neck profile is a player's delight--not too thin, not too thick. We have no doubt that this kingly semi-hollow will bring you all kinds of musical joy and inspiration!

Condition Report

This ES-355 is in kingly condition! It shows extremely light signs of normal use, the most noticeable of which are some light scratches on the peghead face. The hardware has also tarnished a tiny bit. Other than that, there are no cosmetic imperfections to report, and the frets are in fantastic shape. To top it off, it comes with its original hardshell case and a certificate of authenticity!
