Epiphone ES-335, Cherry Overview

The Epiphone ES-335 is a sweet and soulful semi-hollow that's impressed generations of guitarists. Ever since its 1958 introduction, the ES-335 has defined the standards for semi-acoustic instruments. And the Epiphone ES-335 is no exception! Part of the "Inspired by Gibson" range, it features a layered maple top, back and sides, and a maple centre block to boast the same warm, natural sonics as the original. Indeed, it's brimming with heaps of sustain and resonance - any 335 lover's dream!

Together with top class Epiphone Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, the ES-335 delivers vintage tones with exceptional dynamics and definition. Reminiscent of the highly sought-after PAF sound, you can expect enough grit for crunchy rock and blues, and enough clarity for pristine jazz. Combined with CTS pots, you'll enjoy maximum responsiveness when adjusting your sound. And that's not all - a "C" shaped neck provides riffing comfort, while a Kalamazoo headstock and other visual appointments complete the authentic look. The Epiphone ES-335 is your ticket to a legendary guitar at a fraction of the price!

Pro tone

Humbucker power. Each of the Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers loaded into this guitar shines with sonic beauty. The bridge pickup is tight and powerful, offering a high output for sharp crunch and plenty of volume. It's got the characteristics of a 50s pickup mixed with modern tone and definition. The neck humbucker is equally impressive, offering a warmer sound which is both fat and super clear. It's great for bringing out the full potential of lead licks, and giving them a full, saturated voicing. With these dynamic pickups, you'll be able to take on any genre of your choosing.

Exceptional manoeuvrability

It plays perfectly. The mahogany neck is made to a rounded 'C' profile, so you can be sure that it provides your hand with the ultimate comfort and manoeuvrability. Tonally, it is warm, helping give your notes a smoothness and richness which complements virtually any style of music. Then there's the Indian laurel fretboard, which is also incredibly playable, offering decent note sustain and a sleekness of its own. You'll be skimming along each fret like a bird, giving you the freedom to improvise in your own style.

Ultra-reliable

Always play with confidence. The ES-335 is packed with quality hardware from head to toe. A Graph Tech NuBone nut ensures solid intonation and tuning stability is guaranteed for years to come. And the Epiphone LockTone TOM bridge, combined with Grover Rotomatic tuners, ensure that your strings stay locked down and singing in tune – there's some serious quality imbued into this guitar. Expect a stellar performance, every time you play.
