Description
What makes this guitar special? This is a super clean 335 with a simple aesthetic and a ton of great tone. The SlimTaper neck is incredibly easy to move around and will be both familiar and comfortable to players of most modern guitars, especially Gibsons. The pickups sound fantastic in all three positions and provide classic full and warm humbucker tone in the neck with some additional heat in the bridge. The top figuring is subtle while the back has a ton of movement in the grain, both of which look fantastic under the Cherry finish and wrapped up in cream, chrome, and black. This is a great player in even better shape, so don’t miss your chance to add this clean semi-hollow body classic to your collection.
Condition: This guitar is in excellent condition overall. It does possess a few light surface scratches and a small ding here or there, but otherwise is in fantastic shape and plays the same. The frets show only very light wear and still have a full lifetime left in them. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.

Neck: 1-piece SlimTaper mahogany neck and cream-bound 12” radius rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays. 1.675” nut width. Chrome Grover tuning machines.

Playability/Sound: The SlimTaper neck is very easy to move around and will be a welcome profile for players of many other modern Gibsons. The ’57 Classic pickups sound absolutely awesome in this body and output a ton of warm and full humbucker tone in the neck and a bit more bright and bite in the bridge.
Case: Includes original hardshell case and COA.
