With the Gibson 1959 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Burst, the Gibson Custom Shop presents an absolutely authentic reissue of the sought-after Electric Spanish Guitar from the end of the Fifties as part of the Historic Reissue Line-Up. Detailed scans of the best Vintage originals create the basis for historically accurate shaping and a first-class feel, while custom bucker pickups and a circuit with paper-in-oil capacitors let the electric guitar walk in the footsteps of the legendary PAF sound. Last but not least, the typical Vintage-StyleHardware with ABR-1 bridge and Kluson tuners completes the 1959 ES-335 Reissue semi-acoustic guitar by Gibson.
The Gibson 1959 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Burst is an authentic replica, down to the smallest details, of the coveted Vintage Semi Hollow from the Late Fifties.
Careful scans of the best vintage ES-335 models guarantee historically accurate shaping of the entire guitar.
Historically correct construction
The construction of the 1959 Reissue E-335 is naturally historically correct using the tonewoods of the Fifties, with detailed scans of the Vintage originals guaranteeing accurate reproduction of all shapings, from the "mouse ears" of the body to the neck profile. and Feedback without compromising the airy-resonant sound of the guitar, the body made of the typical maple-poplar laminate is stabilized by a centre block of maple. The mahogany neck, glued with Hide-Glue and Long Tenon, with the pleasantly strong "'50s Rounded Medium C" profile promises optimal playing characteristics up to the 22nd fret of the rosewood fingerboard, where naturally the historically authenticated DotInlays mark the positions.
Gibson Custombuckers reinforced with Alnico III magnets and a hand-wired circuit with Paper-in-Oil caps promise the best vintage sounds.
Custombucker Pickups
In order for the '59 Reissue ES-335 to meet all vintage demands in terms of sound, it is equipped with Gibson custom bucker pickups in the neck and bridge positions. Thanks to Alnico III magnets and non-waxed coils, the humbuckers walk in the footsteps of the legendary PAF pickups and deliver a particularly airy sound, which is characterized by the resonance-friendly character of the Semi-Hollow construction and is ideally suited for the classic styles of blues, rock and jazz. A hand-wired circuit with historically correct oil-paper capacitors guarantees optimal adaptability of the sound image with smooth Treble roll-offs.
On the headstock of the ES-335 Reissue, Kluson Single Line/Single Ring tuners provide stable and accurate tuning.
Classic hardware equipment
Of course, the typical hardware equipment of the Late Fifties completes the 1959 ES-335 Reissue VintageBurstSemi-Hollow guitar from Gibson. On the body, Ted McCarty's established duo of a lightweight aluminium stopbar and the ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge are used, allowing precise adjustment of intonation and string action. Behind the nylon nut, Kluson tuners in historically correct single line/single ring design also provides robust and accurate tuning of the electric guitar.
