Overview

Another guitar gem from the masters at Gibson's Custom Shop.

The body of the Gibson Custom Shop CS356 has been slightly scaled down to 13-3/4"W from the big 16"W on a 335 for a more comfortable feel, but it still has the inimitable sound of a genuine semi-hollow. It features a luxurious, solid quilt-maple top joined to a solid carved mahogany back, sides, and center block. It comes with Gibson's '57 Classic Humbuckers that can deliver everything from singing jazz sounds to raunchy blues and rock tones. Sumptuous appointments include big mother-of-pearl inlays on a buttery bound ebony fretboard, 7-ply top and back binding, multi-bound turtle pickguard, and brilliant gold hardware.
