Often referred to as the most versatile guitar model ever designed, the semi-hollow ES-335 has had an immense impact on many genres and continues to be a player's favorite. From the coveted 'Burst year of 1959, this guitar holds its original PAF pickups and electronics. The neck is that perfect profile that '59s are revered for. Amazingly, this is a rare factory bigsby model with factory applied tasteful pearl dots in the stop bar position. In order to keep it in top playing condition the guitar received a refret and had its nut shimmed. This is a fine example of a "Burst Killer" and in our opinion is THE holy grail.
