With the 1959 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Burst, Gibson Custom Shop delivers an exceptionally authentic recreation of the coveted late-’50s Electric Spanish guitar, as part of its Historic Reissue lineup. Based on detailed scans of some of the finest vintage originals, this reissue offers historically accurate contours and an outstanding playing feel. Custombucker pickups and a vintage-style circuit with paper-in-oil capacitors faithfully capture the legendary PAF tone. Rounding out the package, period-correct hardware – including an ABR-1 bridge and Kluson tuners—perfectly completes the Gibson 1959 ES-335 Reissue semi-hollow guitar.
The Gibson 1959 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Burst is an authentic replica of the coveted Vintage Semi Hollow from the late fifties down to the smallest detail.
Careful scans of the best vintage ES-335 models guarantee historically accurate shaping of the entire guitar.
Historically correct construction
The construction of the 1959 Reissue E-335 is naturally historically correct using the tonewoods of the Fifties, with detailed scans of the Vintage originals guaranteeing accurate reproduction of all shapings, from the "mouse ears" of the body to the neck profile. and to avoid feedback without compromising the guitar's airy-resonant sound, the body made of the typical maple-poplar laminate is stabilized by a center block of maple. The mahogany neck, glued with Hide Glue and Long Tenon, promises optimal playing characteristics with the pleasantly strong "'50s Rounded Medium C"profile up to the 22nd fret of the rosewood fingerboard, where naturally the historically authenticated Dot Inlays mark the positions.
Gibson Custombucker with Alnico III magnets and a hand-wired circuit with paper-in-oil caps promise the best vintage sounds.
Custombucker pickups
To ensure the '59 Reissue ES-335 meets every vintage tone expectation, it comes equipped with Gibson Custombucker pickups in both neck and bridge positions. Featuring Alnico III magnets and unpotted coils, these humbuckers faithfully recreate the airy tone of the legendary PAF pickups, enhanced by the naturally resonant semi-hollow body. Ideal for classic blues, rock, and jazz styles, the hand-wired electronics with historically accurate paper-in-oil capacitors ensure refined tonal control and smooth treble roll-off.
Kluson Single Line/Single Ring tuners on the headstock of the ES-335 Reissue ensure stable and precise tuning.
Classic hardware equipment
Of course, the 1959 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Natural from Gibson features the classic hardware setup of the late Fifties. On the body, Ted McCarty’s iconic combination of a lightweight aluminum stopbar and ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge allows precise adjustment of intonation and string height. Behind the nylon nut, Kluson tuners in the historically correct single-line/single-ring design ensure stable and accurate tuning.
