Gibson ES 335 Graphite Metallic Dot 2018 Electric Guitar
Here for sale we have a Gibson Memphis ES-335 'Dot' Semi-Hollow Electric Guitar in Graphite Metallic finish. Made in the USA in 2018, this set-neck constructed guitar features a 3-ply Maple/Poplar/Maple body, a Quatersawn Mahogany neck, and a 22-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include Nickel hardware, an ABR-1 bridge with Brass Saddles, Grover 'Milk Bottle' Rotomatic tuners, and a pair of MHS II humbucking pickups. These pickups are wired to two volume controls, two tone controls, and a three-way pickup selector. The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the Rounded "C" profile feeling nicely full and articulate in the hand and providing a smooth and responsive playing experience in all registers. The Rosewood fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its traditional 12" radius is practical for a wide range of styles and techniques. The familiar lines of the ES-335 body are as comfortable in the arms as ever, ensuring that long practice sessions and gigs are fatigue free. Amplified, the pair of MHS II humbuckers work in conjunction with the semi-hollow construction to deliver the full and thick sounds that we all expect from Gibson. The guitar resonates beautifully, filling out the sound with a deep and rich character. The neck pickup is warm and round, and can handle plenty of gain meaning you can achieve anything from jazzy lines through to soaring rock and blues solo tones. The bridge pickup is hotter, driving the front end of an amp with ease and producing the bright, biting tones that cut right through the mix to put your playing front and centre. The traditional dual humbucker control layout feels very responsive, allowing you to explore a wide tonal palette right on the instrument.
