Gibson Limited Edition 1958 ES-335 Reissue Murphy Lab Heavy Aged in Watermelon The Gibson Custom 1958 ES 335™ Reissue, Heavy Aged, Watermelon, captures the spirit of the groundbreaking semi-hollow that reshaped the electric guitar landscape in the late 50s. First introduced as a bold new concept that bridged the warmth of a hollowbody with the power and control of a solidbody, the original 1958 ES 335 became an instant icon. This limited edition recreation, inspired by years of Made to Measure custom orders and the creativity of the luthiers at the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, Tennessee, channels the same pioneering energy and historic accuracy. Crafted using a three-ply maple/poplar/maple body with single-ply binding on the top and back, this reissue faithfully follows the construction methods that gave the earliest 335s their unmistakable voice. A solid maple centerblock enhances sustain and clarity, while helping to control feedback in high-volume settings. Finished in Watermelon with its nitrocellulose lacquer and hardware Heavy Aged by the artisans of the Murphy Lab, the guitar carries the visual depth, feel, and character of a cherished original from the first Gibson Golden Age. Every trace of lacquer checking, wear, and aging detail is executed by hand, ensuring no two instruments are exactly alike. The mahogany neck is carved to the beloved Authentic 1959 profile, offering a comfortable yet substantial feel that players have gravitated toward for decades. A long neck tenon ensures exceptional resonance and stability, while the rosewood fretboard features dot inlays, a 12-inch fretboard radius, and reissue medium jumbo frets for a smooth, expressive playing experience. The 24.75 inch scale length provides a familiar, versatile platform suitable for everything from blues and jazz to rock and soul. A matched set of Custombucker Alnico 3 pickups delivers a dynamic, articulate voice with the sweet top end, rich midrange, and harmonic complexity associated
