Burstbucker 1 & 2 Pickups
The Gibson ES-335 Satin comes equipped with a set of powerful Burstbucker pickups, and feature the low output BB1 at the neck and the medium output BB2 at the bridge. The Burstbucker pickups are designed to recapture the magic of the original PAF humbuckers, delivering an incredibly powerful and sweet tone to the modern guitarist. Independent volume and tone controls provide players with excellent tone shaping capabilities, while the toggle switch provides quick and easy changes between pickup configurations. All four controls are hand-wired with orange drop capacitors, providing incredible stability, precision, and an overall consistent tone.
Lightweight Hollow Body
The Gibson ES-335 electric guitar features a 3-ply figured maple/poplar/maple body, delivering a bright, and precise tone with a balanced response. In addition, a pair of traditional ''F'' sound holes are also included, and not only offer a classic appearance, but deliver resonance and enhanced harmonic richness. Finished with an attractive maple top, and complemented by a walnut satin finish, the ES-335 not only sounds great but looks extremely impressive.
Neck & Fingerboard
A C-shaped neck profile is also included, which allows for fluid hand flexibility across the whole fingerboard. For added comfort the neck's binding is rounded-off, offering a comfortable fit to the contours of the player's hand. Coupled with a rosewood fingerboard, players can achieve a warm tone with a natural feel. Furthermore, its rosewood fingerboard is topped with pearloid block inlays for added aesthetic appeal.
ABR Bridge
The Gibson ES-335 electric guitar features an ABR-1 bridge, offering incredible string stability and a truly comfortable performance. Its high-quality construction makes it extremely reliable, holding onto the string tension while maximising the transfer of vibrations for an enhanced sustain and vintage tone.
Authentic Bone Nut
The Gibson ES-335 Satin electric guitar features an authentic bone nut, which offers an enhanced tone and sustain over traditional plastic and tusq nuts, and improves the vibration transfer between the string and tuning machines without dampening the tone.
Gibson Memphis Series
Every Gibson Memphis guitar receives an ultra-precise Plek Pro setup, which optimizes the fingerboard and nut for perfect action and intonation. Gibson's world-class luthiers took painstaking care with every detail of the ES-335, including fine touches like CTS pots, orange drop capacitors, nickel hardware, and stunning nitrocellulose lacquer finish. These finishing touches add to the amazing tone and vibe of this incredible guitar, living up to the ES Series' legacy.
