PRELOVED Gibson ES-335 Standard – Vintage Burst (1997)
The Gibson ES-335 Standard is one of the most iconic semi-hollow electric guitars ever made, loved for its perfect balance of warmth, sustain and clarity. This 1997 Gibson ES-335 in Vintage Burst features a beautiful flame top and back, giving it the classic look and feel that has made the ES-335 a favourite across blues, jazz, rock, soul and studio work.
With its semi-hollow construction and centre block design, the ES-335 delivers that sweet mix of airy resonance and controlled feedback resistance. It can be smooth and warm on the neck pickup, bright and articulate on the bridge, or rich and balanced in the middle position.

Why Players Love the ES-335
The ES-335 sits in a unique space between a solid-body and a full hollowbody. It has the sustain and power needed for rock and blues, but still offers the openness and warmth players love for jazz, soul and clean rhythm work. It is one of Gibson’s most versatile designs, equally at home through a clean amp, edge-of-breakup drive, or classic overdrive tones.
