Gibson 1964 ES-335 Reissue Vintage Burst Murphy Lab Light Aged

The classic '64 ES-335 in Vintage Burst: timeless, open and full of character

The Gibson 1964 ES-335 Reissue Murphy Lab Light Aged in Vintage Burst is the most classic iteration of this model: the warm, translucent Vintage Burst finish subtly reveals the wood grain of the maple top and gives the guitar a timeless look that never ages. The Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment adds the right amount of patina: subtle checking in the nitro lacquer, lightly aged nickel hardware, and a playing feel reminiscent of a broken-in vintage instrument.

The tone of a '64 ES-335 is fresh, open, and full of complex harmonics. The two Custombucker Alnico 3 humbuckers, unpotted and tuned to PAF specifications, deliver a dynamic sound with a rich midrange and a transparency rarely found in modern guitars. The 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body with center block gives the guitar that characteristic blend of resonance and sustain. The Authentic '64 Medium C-Shape neck profile fits comfortably in the hand.

Specs: mahogany neck, Indian Rosewood fretboard with small block cellulose nitrate inlays, 22 frets, ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, Kluson Single Line Double Ring tuners, lightly aged nickel hardware, and paper-in-oil capacitors. Comes in a Black/Yellow Custom Shop hardshell case.

Vintage Burst, Murphy Lab, '64 ES-335. The classic among classics.
