Overview

Burstbucker pickups and a more comfortable playing experience.

Long an icon for blues, jazz, Americana and rock players, the "dot-neck" ES-335 is renowned for warm tones that still have enough bite to make your point in a package with more than a modicum of style. Revised for 2018 to deliver that same style and sound while bring modern advances in materials, construction, plus a little extra splash of contemporary style, the ES-335 is ready to make your musical statement.

The 2018 Gibson ES-335 Dot has a redesigned neck with added thickness in the peghead transition to providee greater strength and stability along with a classic and comfortable 'C' neck profile. The Historic truss rod has superior adjustability due to the Teflon coating, larger diameter rod, original brass anchor and larger washer.

The binding is rounded off to comfortably fit the contours of the players hand and lower fret height provides smooth playability and accurate intonation. There are new variations on your favorite color schemes and to top it off the guitar is loaded with BurstBucker 1 pickup in the Neck and a BurstBucker 2 pickup in the Bridge. Includes hardshell case.
