This Used 2023 Gibson Custom Murphy Lab 1959 ES-355 Reissue Light Aged in Watermelon Red is here on TRADE! The neck is straight, the frets are still crowned, and the truss rod functions properly. Included with the guitar is the original hardshell case
What could be better than the legendary ES-335? The ES-355! Think Les Paul Custom vs. Les Paul Standard. The 355 is an aesthetically upgraded semi-hollow with top-shelf appointments like an Ebony Fingerboard, Block mother-of-pearl inlays, and Gold Hardware. The Watermelon Red Finish has a Pinkish, Orangey thing going on depending on the lighting and it was lightly distressed by the artisans at Murphy Lab. This is an exceptionally cool, well-dressed semi-hollow guitar with a long life ahead!
"The ES-355 starts with all the features that make the ES-335 iconic - the feedback-resistant semi-hollowbody construction, the two humbucking pickups with individual volume and tone controls, the legendary sonic versatility and exceptional playability - and kicks it into overdrive with an ebony fretboard that's adorned with 50s pattern mother of pearl block inlays and 22 authentic medium jumbo frets. A split diamond headstock inlay, multi-ply binding, and gold hardware further reinforce the fact that the ES-355 is the top of the line ES™ model.
This expertly crafted Custom Shop rendition's attention to detail makes it an outstanding recreation of the legendary and highly-prized 1959 ES-355. A five latch Lifton™ case is also included. It also features Light Aging by the skilled artisans of the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with lightly aged hardware, simulates decades of natural play wear, giving it the unique character, vibe, and feel of an original example from the Gibson Golden Era."
