1959 Gibson ES-335 TD
Released in 1958, the ES-335 was a real departure in terms of guitar design.
By adding a center block to a slimline double cutaway arch top body,
Gibson created what many consider the perfect electric guitar,
a classic shape with solid-body like sustain.
A truly stunning specimen complete with a perfect early 1959 neck profile,
an untouched set of zebra PAF humbuckers,
a factory Bigsby B7 and a clean brown Lifton case.
Incredible sound and feel: "Only a Gibson is good enough!"
