Description
First launched back in 1958, the Gibson ES-335 has gone on to become one of the most iconic electric guitars of all time — and for good reason. It’s the ultimate “do-it-all” semi-hollow, loved for its huge tonal range and unmistakable character. The ES-335 Figured sticks faithfully to that classic recipe, but turns things up a notch with a stunning AAA figured Maple top that looks every bit as good as it sounds.
Warm, open & ready for any genre
At its core, you’ve got Gibson’s time-tested laminated Maple/Poplar/Maple body paired with a solid Maple centre block. The result? All the warmth and openness you expect from a semi-hollow, with excellent feedback resistance when the volume goes up. Whether you’re chasing smooth jazz tones, punchy blues or articulate rock sounds, the ES-335 handles it all with ease.
Built for comfort, designed to inspire
The Mahogany neck features a comfortable Rounded “C” profile that just feels right in the hand — perfect for chunky rhythm work down low or expressive lead playing further up the neck. A bound Rosewood fingerboard with classic small block inlays keeps things looking properly vintage, while Vintage Deluxe tuners with Keystone buttons complete that unmistakable Gibson headstock aesthetic.
Pure Gibson tone, total control
Hardware-wise, the lightweight aluminium ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge and Stop Bar tailpiece deliver rock-solid tuning stability and spot-on intonation gig after gig. Plug in, and the calibrated T-Type humbuckers serve up a beautifully balanced mix of vintage warmth and modern clarity. Add to that hand-wired controls with Orange Drop capacitors, and you’ve got smooth, musical control over your tone at all times.
