The ES-335 50s follows the model as it first appeared: dot inlays, a Rounded C neck and a pair of Custombucker humbuckers with Alnico 3 magnets. Gibson made it, alongside the ES-335 60s, so ES players could choose an era the way Les Paul players already could.
Laminated maple, poplar and maple body with a maple centre block, a mahogany neck on a rosewood board, an ABR-1 bridge, stop bar and Vintage Deluxe tuners. Ebony, Vintage Tobacco Burst and Vintage Natural.
