Description

This 1961 Gibson ES-335 features a factory stop tailpiece, a perfectly contoured neck, it's lightweight and has tone for days. This thing sounds like records. The weight is right in the comfortable ballpark at 7.4 pounds. It's been refretted perfectly with some nice big jumbo frets. The setup is totally pro, the guitar plays effortlessly. It comes with a cool brown/pink Lifton case. What's not to love?!Some details: The pickup outputs are on the low side and that acounts for the incredible clarity of the tone this thing has. The neck pickup sticker is missing, and the solder joints at the pots are all original so it must've come that way from the factory. The bridge pickup has the PAF sticker. Both pickups have never been opened and the solder joints holding the covers are original.
