Description
These Limited Run Heavy-Aged ES-335s go far beyond just "broken-in." With a rugged look and an irreverent attitude, this series showcases the vertical aging patterns particular to played-hard ES-335 models, as well as a healthy amount of hand-applied arm wear and buckle rash.

The rare historic Argentine Grey finish pairs perfectly with a "dot neck" base while the wild new Candy Apple Blue and Driftwood finishes spruce up the classic "block neck" uniform.

The Driftwood option also showcases platform-first charcoal-tinted inlays to tie into the weathered aesthetic.

Together these are three unique ES-335 models unlike anything ever seen before from Gibson Custom.
Elegant ES-355 appointments, set off by the classic Classic White finish and Bigsby vibrato.

Bound Richlite fingerboard with large block MOP inlays, PAF-style 57 Classic humbuckers.
