Since 1958, the Gibson ES–335 DOT has remained the definitive semi–hollow electric guitar, establishing benchmarks that continue to influence musicians worldwide. This flagship model from Gibson’s ES series represents the perfect fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation, maintaining its status as an unmatched standard in the guitar world.
The instrument features a hand–rolled Rounded “C” mahogany neck topped with a rosewood fingerboard adorned with classic pearloid dot inlays – design elements that pay homage to the guitar’s legendary origins. These foundational components remind players of the authentic heritage that has made this model so revered among professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Gibson’s all–new Calibrated T–Type humbucking pickups work in harmony with the hand–wired control assembly to produce the versatile ES tone that musicians have sought after for more than six decades. The guitar’s exceptional tuning stability and precise intonation come courtesy of Vintage Deluxe tuners fitted with Keystone buttons, complemented by a lightweight Aluminium ABR–1 bridge and Stop bar tailpiece configuration.
