Description

The Gibson Custom 1958 ES 335 Reissue in Watermelon embodies the spirit of the semi-hollow guitar that revolutionized the late fifties. This limited edition recreates the original concept bridging hollowbody warmth with solidbody control. Built in Nashville, Tennessee, it features a three-ply maple, poplar, and maple body with single-ply binding and a solid maple centerblock for sustain and feedback control. The Murphy Lab has hand-aged the nitrocellulose lacquer finish and hardware for authentic vintage character. It includes a 1959-profile mahogany neck, long neck tenon, and rosewood fretboard with dot inlays. Driven by Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups, the 24.75-inch scale instrument delivers classic humbucker tones. Complete with a Lifton case, certificate, and period-accurate hardware, this guitar honors Gibson’s iconic legacy through expert craftsmanship.
