Gibson ES-335 Dot - Dark Natural
The original "dot neck" ES-335 is perhaps the most desirable vintage semi-hollow guitar. Renowned for both its playability and great, warm tone, it became a fixture with electric blues, rock and jazz players. The ES-335 Dot captures that classic vibe and tone for an unmistakeable playing experience. Loaded with Gibson's '57 Classic and '57 Classic Plus humbuckers and a hand-wired wiring harness, the ES-335 Dot is ready to help you reach the next level.
