The Light and Loaded ES-335

The Gibson ES-335 Figured is the perfect blend of form and function. Equipped with a thermally engineered maple centerblock, and thermally engineered quarter-sawn Adirondack spruce bracing, players will be impressed by the lightweight feel and expanded range of tonal capabilities. Dressed in high-end appointments like our hand-wired control assembly, the all new MHS II humbucking pickups, and an ABR-1 bridge, this just might be the best one yet.
