Description
Epiphone's "Inspired by Gibson" ES-335 Figured pays tribute to the iconic ES-335, the thin semi-hollow archtop that changed the face of rock 'n' roll over half a century ago. With its roaring humbuckers, comfortable neck, and old-school Raspberry Tea Burst finish, this Epiphone is perfect for players seeking a top-notch, vintage-inspired axe.
Crafted with a layered maple body and capped with a AAA Flamed Maple veneer, this ES-335 has a bright, resonant sound with tight lows, punchy mids, and articulate highs. Its semi-hollow body features a solid maple center block that not only imbues each note with rich, juicy sustain, but helps reduce feedback when amplified. Players will also love its rounded "C" shaped mahogany neck and silky Indian laurel fingerboard that play with a buttery-smooth response.
Powering the ES-335 Figured is a pair of Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, specially voiced to churn out an extensive palette of spot-on vintage ones. Roll on the neck pickup, and this beauty will sing out with a thick, warm growl, perfect for rhythm playing. Crank the bridge pickup, and you'll conjure up a monstrous snarl with plenty of punch and bite. No matter what tone you're seeking, the ES-335 figured is more than capable of delivering the goods.
Complete with Grover Rotomatic tuners, pearloid block inlays, and a Tune-o-Matic bridge, the Epiphone ES-335 Figured is an excellent choice for players looking to add a well-built, classic-sounding semi-hollow to their collection.
