The ES-335 50s revives the foundational elements of the earliest ES-335 guitars introduced in 1958. Its semi-hollow, thinline body is constructed from three-ply maple, poplar, and maple, paired with a solid maple centerblock that enhances sustain and significantly curbs feedback. True to the original run of ES-335 models, the mahogany neck is carved to a substantial Rounded C profile that offers a full, comfortable feel. The bound rosewood fretboard features traditional acrylic dot inlays. Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone buttons, working alongside the Graph Tech® nut, provide impressive tuning stability. An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece contribute to the guitar’s strong sustain while allowing precise adjustment of action and individual intonation settings. A pair of Custombucker pickups with Alnico 3 magnets powers the ES-335 50s, delivering the sought-after sound associated with the earliest Patent Applied For humbucker™ pickups from the late 1950s. The ES-335 50s comes with a Gibson hardshell case.
