Explanation
You might be interested in semi-acoustic guitars, but hesitant to try one, thinking they seem hard to handle or that you'll just end up going back to a solid-body. Sound familiar? Honestly, even if the sound is appealing, concerns about practicality and playability can make them fall off your list of options.
But what if there was a guitar that offered an acoustic-like airiness while also possessing the stable vibration system and sustain of a solid-body guitar? That hesitation would surely waver significantly. The reason the ES-335 has produced so many legendary performances since its birth in 1958 lies precisely in achieving this balance. The playability afforded by its center block construction is something experienced players, in particular, will truly appreciate.
This is a 1968 Gibson ES-335TD.Its solid maple center block inside the body naturally achieves both a rich, resonant body tone and a focused, core-driven sound. The tailpiece has been modified to a Bigsby, adding the unique charm of actively expressing pitch fluctuations. For players who prioritize the expression and resonance of the sound over heavy distortion, this significantly broadens their expressive range.
The narrow 39.3mm nut width neck employs a slim, tapered mahogany one-piece construction. Its deep joint structure ensures string vibrations transfer firmly to the body, delivering exceptional resonance from the moment you hold it. The installed numbered PAF pickups faithfully translate touch nuances into sound without boasting output, impressing with sparkling highs and a deep, resonant midrange.
The body color, transitioning from burgundy to gold, embodies the passage of time itself. While the frets have been replaced, this enhances playability, resulting in a vintage instrument that remains fully functional and ready to be played.
If you're starting to feel ready to engage with a semi-hollow body, this 1968 ES-335TD becomes a compelling choice. If you're seeking a guitar that won't just satisfy as a possession but will accompany your musical journey ahead, we urge you to experience its tone and responsiveness firsthand.
