For players seeking vintage authenticity with a bold visual twist, the Gibson Custom Shop 1961 ES-335 in Silver delivers classic semi-hollow tone and refined craftsmanship with undeniable stage appeal. This Dealer Select edition stands out with its stunning Silver gloss nitrocellulose finish, accented by black body binding and a sleek black “stinger” on the back of the neck. Faithfully capturing the feel and tone of early-’60s Gibsons, this ES-335 is built with a 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body and a solid mahogany neck using hide glue construction for optimal tonal transfer and long-term stability. The guitar's Authentic 1961 Thin D neck profile and rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays offer a smooth, fast-playing experience that's perfect for expressive lead work and complex chord voicings.

The tonal heart of this reissue lies in its dual Gibson '57 Classic humbuckers, which deliver rich midrange warmth, crisp highs, and vintage PAF-style clarity — ideal for genres ranging from jazz and blues to rock and soul. Hardware is period-accurate and dependable, featuring an ABR-1 adjustable bridge, aluminum stopbar tailpiece, and Grover kidney-style tuners. Every detail of this Custom Shop build — right down to the black top hat knobs and traditional Gibson crown inlay — reinforces its vintage pedigree. With its visually striking finish and heritage-driven tone, this limited-run ES-335 is a standout instrument; available now at Haggerty’s Music.
