The Gibson Custom 1961 ES-335 Reissue VOS represents one of the most faithful recreations of an early ES-335 ever produced. Developed through extensive study scanning and hands-on analysis of original 1961 instruments this model captures the defining features that made the ES-335 a cornerstone of electric guitar history. Built by the expert luthiers of the Gibson Custom Shop it delivers an authentic vintage playing experience with the consistency and precision expected from a modern historic reissue.
Constructed using a 3-ply maple poplar and maple body with a solid maple centre block the 1961 ES-335 offers the perfect balance between hollowbody warmth and solidbody sustain. Rounded cutaways dot inlays and a slim-taper neck profile reflect the transition-era specifications of early 60s models. Finished in a Vintage Burst nitrocellulose VOS lacquer this instrument combines period-correct aesthetics with exceptional resonance clarity and dynamic response ideal for blues jazz rock and beyond.
