Key Features
Experience greatness. The Gibson ES-335 Satin 2019 provides stunning playability and excellent sound quality in an iconic model used by some of music's greatest ever guitarists. You're unlikely to have ever picked up a guitar that feels this natural in your hands. A rounded "C"-shaped neck will fit perfectly in the palm of your hand, while a rosewood fretboard will let your hands dance freely up and down the scale.
Every note will burst with power and clarity. MHS II humbuckers can deliver flawless audio quality at even the highest outputs, meaning you won't need to hold back on the volume. You'll enjoy precise tuning thanks to a bone nut and Grover tuners that hold your strings in place for longer. Eric Clapton, BB King, and Johnny Marr are all massive fans. You will be, too.

Sound quality is integral. You're able to rest easy with the ES-335, comfortable in the knowledge that you have a guitar at the absolute pinnacle of delivering articulate tone and pinpoint definition of sound. Gibson's MHS II humbucking pickups expertly eliminate any interference, affording your playing a clear, crisp, and untainted finish.
These second edition pickups, new for 2019 Gibson models, are hand-wired and feature 550K matched potentiometers and orange drop capacitators. The result is a beautifully defined balance of sound that can cut through a mix at all volumes, without ever sacrificing quality. Ideal for the stage.
Experience a tonal palette that's full and fantastically varied. The Gibson ES-335 Satin is equipped with a range of features that will provide you with superb overall sound. A range of tonewoods used in its construction ensures that the ES-335 has the ability to produce unique, wide-ranging tones. Maple and poplar used for the body bring brightness, while a rosewood fingerboard injects unmistakable warmth and depth into your low-end playing. This range will accommodate a large selection of playing styles and genres.
That's far from the end of this guitar's amazing tonal quality, though. Its semi-hollow construction will bring a natural, acoustic-style resonance to whatever is played on it. A centreblock running through the guitar's body increases sustain, ensuring that every note sounds full and clear. So whatever you play onstage, your audience will be certain to hear it perfectly.
The most natural playing experience you're ever likely to find. With the ES-335, your hand will never feel discomfort thanks to a rounded "C"-shaped mahogany neck. This will fit perfectly to the contours of your hand, meaning you can play on for hours without worrying about cramp or strain.
You'll hit the hardest to reach notes and most complicated chords with ease, too. Rolled binding gives the neck a played-in, slightly worn feel, instantly allowing you to express yourself freely and without restraint. And climbing up the fretboard has never been easier. A rosewood fingerboard designed for mobility will make fast-paced solos and lead lines simple. This is a guitar that will never hold you back.
Dropping out of tune is frustrating. It can ruin an otherwise brilliant performance. Gibson know this, and have crafted the ES-335 Satin to ensure that it's superb at maintaining precise tuning. An authentic bone nut is super-strong and durable, holding your strings in tune for longer. Grover Milk Bottle tuners provide even more string stability, making the ES-335 a guitar that'll always stay pitch perfect, no matter how long your live show or studio session is.
The ES-335 is a guitar icon. Since its release all the way back in the 1958, it's been one of the most widely-used and popular guitars in the music industry. Chuck Berry became an inventor of rock and roll with this as his weapon. Eric Clapton's model toured the world with Cream and on his solo shows, and went on to sell for almost a million dollars. Dave Grohl wielded one while making Foo Fighters one of the biggest bands of the 21st century.
The list goes on and on. BB King, Roy Orbison, and Johnny Marr have all used an ES-335. With such a phenomenal musical pedigree, you can be absolutely certain that this guitar is amongst the best in the business.
An instrument this good deserves maximum protection. This model includes a supremely durable, long-lasting Gibson hardshell guitar case at no extra cost. This provides security and safety for your guitar, meaning that no matter how demanding your tour schedule is, and no matter how many flights, trains, or buses you have to catch, your ES-335 will remain in tact. Eric Clapton took his all over the world with him for over 40 years before he auctioned it for charity in 2004, the guitar itself still in mint condition. With Gibson's hardshell protection, you can make yours last, too.
