Advancements in vintage coloring, a sustain-enhancing historic tubeless truss rod, and PAF-evoking Burstbucker pickups make the Gibson Memphis ES-335 semi-hollowbody electric guitar look, play, and feel more like an original '58 than ever. From soulful blues to smooth jazz to gritty rock, there's just no substitute for the vibrant sustain and all-night comfort of the 335's contoured maple body with feedback-fighting center block. A more stable, redesigned neck with rolled binding gives the Gibson Memphis 335 a smoother feel, and an adjustable ABR-1 bridge with titanium saddles helps accommodate diverse playing styles. Experience the instrument that shaped the sound of rock 'n' roll: the Gibson Memphis ES-335.

Handcrafted in the Gibson factory on Beale Street:
Nobody makes a semi-hollowbody guitar like Gibson. This superb 335 is handcrafted in Gibson's Memphis Custom Shop on Beale Street for quality craftsmanship you can count on, and from a city that knows how blues should sound. Carefully selected maple and poplar tonewoods give the Gibson Memphis 335 its signature bark, and a carefully calipered body cavity with Titebond 50 glue joints and a maple center block give it its controlled howl and haunting sustain.

Burstbucker pickups deliver vintage PAF tone:
Hand-wound Burstbuckers give this ES-335 the tight low end, complex midrange, and sweet highs of Gibson's vintage PAF ("Patent Applied For") pickups with extra clarity and power. Historically mismatched rhythm and lead pickups give each position a unique flavor for chords and leads, while pairing the pickups together unlocks a sweetness that even Gibson purists will appreciate. For a vintage 335 experience without the price tag, Sweetwater guitarists recommend checking out the Gibson Memphis ES-335.

 

Rounded "C" neck profile enhances comfort and stability:
Wrap your hand around the Gibson Memphis ES-335's rounded C-shaped neck, and you'll know that you're in for something special. Redesigned dimensions give this neck increased strength and an incredibly comfortable feel. Rolled binding provides an ultra-smooth playing experience. Enjoy enhanced resonance and sustain, by virtue of this guitar's historic truss rod.
