It is renowned for its exceptional versatility and has been used by countless players in a wide range of genres. Combining the best elements of solidbody and thinline hollowbody designs, it’s a highly resonant guitar that resists feedback much better than a full hollowbody due to its interior solid maple centerblock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow, Epiphone, in cooperation with Gibson Custom, is proud to introduce the 1962 ES-335 Reissue, a guitar that was very much inspired by Gibson Custom’s ES-335 offerings but purposefully based on a model year that Gibson Custom does not currently reissue – 1962, a year when popular features like rounded cutaways, small block inlays, and a fast-playing, slim neck profile were all present on the Gibson ES-335.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Epiphone 1962 ES-335 Reissue has a semi-hollow 5-ply layered maple\/poplar body with rounded cutaways and a solid maple centerblock for outstanding sustain and feedback resistance. The genuine one-piece mahogany neck has a thin 1960s SlimTaper™ C profile and is capped with a rosewood fretboard that is outfitted with 22 medium jumbo frets and mother-of-pearl small block inlays. The fretboard features rounded edges to give it a comfortable, played-in feel that invites you to explore it for hours at a time. Even the side dot position markers are the same size as on vintage 1962 ES-335 models and are placed in historically accurate locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Gibson-style “open book” headstock features the Epiphone logo and Gibson Crown inlaid in aged mother-of-pearl and is fitted with smooth-turning Epiphone Deluxe tuning machines with Double Ring Keystone-style buttons and a Graph Tech® nut. An ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge and Gibson historic reissue aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece anchor the strings at the other end directly into the solid maple centerblock and further contribute to the 1962 ES-335’s excellent sustain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor electronics, a pair of USA-made Gibson Custombucker humbucker™ pickups are hand-wired to CTS® potentiometers and Black Beauty paper-in-oil capacitors and deliver authentic ES-335 tonal versatility, making the 1962 ES-335 Reissue a great choice for rock, blues, jazz, country, and more. A vintage-style Black hardshell case with a plush Goldenrod interior and Inspired by Gibson Custom exterior graphics is also included to help keep this beautiful 1962 ES-335 Reissue safe during storage and travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-hollow construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-piece mahogany neck with 1960s SlimTaper C profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosewood fretboard with rounded edges, mother-of-pearl small block inlays, and 22 medium jumbo frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustombucker Alnico 3 pickups (unpotted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitchcraft 3-way toggle switch and 1\/4\" output jack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardshell case with Inspired by Gibson Custom logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Epiphone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948160020615,"sku":"EC335R2EBNH1","price":919.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/files\/epiphone-electric-guitars-epiphone-inspired-by-gibson-1962-es-335-reissue-aged-ebony-epiphone-inspired-by-gibson-1962-es-335-reissue-aged-ebony-ec335r2ebnh1-1245675980.jpg?v=1782161769","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.com\/en-gb\/products\/epiphone-inspired-by-gibson-1962-es-335-reissue-aged-2463390","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
