Up for sale is a 1983 Gibson Custom Shop ES-335 Dot Reissue in Natural Blonde. We'e had a number of these early 80s 335s in the store over the years and I can sincerely say they do not disappoint and are some of the absolute best 335s you can acquire shy of a 50s and 60s example. This model features highly figured top and back, nickel hardware, slim C neck that measures .83 @ 1st and .97 @ 12th, 1 11/16th nut width, Grover tuners and black plastics. The guitar has a set of modern Gibson PAF pickups installed, I presume '57 Classics and has 2 500K volume pots installed (originals pots included). The guitar has been professionally refretted and has a bone nut installed, it is playing better than ever. This one is very clean less some light play wear and light areas of finish checking. These are hard to come by in this kind of condition. Pro setup in house and comes complete with its original hard case.
NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.
We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
