Historically correct construction
The construction of the 1959 Reissue E-335 is naturally historically correct with the tonewoods of the Fifties, whereby detailed scans of the Vintage originals guarantee an accurate reproduction of all shaping, from the "mouse ears" of the body to the neck profile. and Feedback without impairing the airy, resonant sound of the guitar, the body made of the typical maple-poplar laminate is stabilized by a maple center block. The mahogany neck, glued with Hide Glue and Long Tenon, promises optimum playing characteristics with the pleasantly strong "'50s Rounded Medium C" profile up to the 22nd fret of the rosewood fingerboard, in which the historically documented dot inlays naturally mark the positions.
Gibson Custombucker with Alnico III magnets and a hand-wired circuit with paper-in-oil caps promise the best vintage sounds.
Custombucker pickups
The '59 Reissue ES-335 is equipped with GibsonCustombucker pickups in the neck and bridge position to ensure that it also meets all vintage requirements in terms of sound. Thanks to Alnico III magnets and non-waxed coils, the humbuckers follow in the footsteps of the legendary PAF pickups and deliver a particularly airy sound that is characterized by the resonance-friendly character of the Semi-Hollow construction and is ideally suited to the classic styles of blues, rock and jazz. A hand-wired circuit with historically correct oil paper capacitors guarantees optimum adaptability of the sound image with smooth Treble roll-offs.
Kluson single line/single ring tuners on the headstock of the ES-335 Reissue ensure stable and precise tuning.
Classic hardware equipment
It goes without saying that the 1959 ES-335 Reissue VintageNaturalSemi Hollow guitar from Gibson features the typical hardware equipment of the late fifties. The body features the duo established by Ted McCarty consisting of a lightweight aluminium stopbar and the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, which enables precise adjustment of intonation and string action. Behind the nylon saddle, Kluson tuners in historically correct single line/single ring design ensure robust and precise tuning of the electric guitar.
