Gibson 50th Anniversary ES335 Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar
 |
Gibson 50th Anniversary ES335 Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar The Gibson 50th Anniversary ES335 Electric Guitar pays tribute to the guitar that gained instant success when it was introduced in 1958. With its arched top and f-holes, the ES335 bore recognizable links to its lineage, but a quick check inside its double-cutaway thinline body with solid center block revealed it as a brave new design. More subtle in its advancement of the template, it was in many ways no less revolutionary, and also more acceptable to players who were hesitant to strut too far ahead of the pack. The new ES335 had the advantage of possessing some of the familiar ES features, and in particular was only a few steps away from thinline hollowbody models like the Byrdland and ES350T of 1955, but that chunk of maple that ran down its middle to render it a semi-acoustic made a world of difference to its performance.
