Gibson Custom Shop '58 ES-335 Electric Guitar, Murphy Lab Heavy Aged, Faded Tobacco Burst
This gorgeous Gibson Custom Shop '58 ES-335, in Murphy Lab Heavy Aged Faded Tobacco Burst is a guitar that we're thrilled about. This version is one of three different finishes commemorating the inaugural ES-335, with the other two being available in a Dirty Blonde Heavy Aged, and a Tri-Burst Light Aged. Known as the world's first semi-hollow guitar model, drawn up by former Gibson President Ted McCarty, this iconic instrument has been a staple in music since its inception, loved for being used artists such as B.B. King, Eric Clapton, Larry Carlton, and Warren Haynes.
This '58 ES-335's body is comprised of a 3-ply Maple/Poplar/Maple laminate, and sports two deep cutaways, and two resonant f-holes. Its mahogany neck features a bigger '58 rounded neck profile, and is topped with an unbound fingerboard made of Indian rosewood. With a scale length of 24.75", this '58 ES-335 offers 22 frets, with dot inlays found between them.
Vintage inspired pickups are a necessity for a reissue like this one, and the '58 ES-335 features Gibson's own unpotted Custombuckers in both the neck and bridge positions. Complemented by CTS 500K Audio Taper Pots and Paper-in-Oil Caps, the control scheme of this '58 includes 2 Volume and 2 Tone knobs, offering a precise level of versatility in the tonal realm.
Gibson's Murphy Lab is responsible for this guitar's incredible finish, and this specific 335 features a "Heavy Aged" treatment that provides an authentic vintage aesthetic, capturing the essence of a well-loved instrument that has stood the test of time, but has certainly been played. The guitar's Faded Tobacco Burst finish, combined with the hardware, plated in Nickel and aged by the Murphy Lab to match the rest of the guitar, adds a vintage touch. The hardware includes a relic'd tailpiece, bridge, and tuning machines.
The 1958 ES-335 Reissue Murphy Lab is limited to 130 instruments for each finish, and these exceptional guitars come complete with a brown and pink Lifton five-latch case.
