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, which all work together to make this guitar look like royalty. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eOf 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. They have such incredible vintage tone that you'd think you took a time machine back to London circa 1966 when you plug one in. They have all of the qualities we covet in old-school PAFs: warm, clear low-end, upper-midrange snarl, low-mid growl, and sweet, singing highs. The bridge pickup is as punchy, muscular, and articulate as an undefeated prizefighter with a master's degree in communication. Flipping over to the neck pickup makes you feel like you dove into a vat of melted artisan milk chocolate. It's warm, inviting, vocal, creamy, and righteously smooth. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAnd, the neck profile is a player's delight! Based on a real '59 neck profile, it's not too thin and not too thick, which makes for a Goldilocks-approved playing experience and works beautifully for just about any style and technique. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWe have no doubt that this kingly semi-hollow will bring you all kinds of musical joy and inspiration!\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Gibson Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54050614083859,"sku":"A960017","price":8949.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0799\/5824\/5651\/files\/a960017_lg1.jpg?v=1778015695","url":"https:\/\/wildwoodguitars.com\/products\/a960017-wildwoood-spec-1959-es-355-vos-bigsby","provider":"Wildwood Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
