ES335 Dot plain gloss

Back

The ES-335 brought hollowbody tradition and solidbody performance together in 1958, and it is still one of the all-time classic guitar designs. Gibson invented the semi-hollowbody electric guitar in 1958, offering players the perfect combination of traditional archtop looks and powerful solidbody performance. The original ES-335 was soon joined by the ES-345, with additional ornamentation and features. Today's ES-335 and ES-345 continue to provide the tone and the look that inspires musicians in blues, rock and jazz.
