This is a beautifully classic ES-335 and exactly the sort of specification that suits the model best. Heritage Cherry with a dark rosewood fingerboard is one of the definitive ES combinations, and the simpler dot-inlay aesthetic gives it a particularly clean, vintage-inspired look.
Being a Memphis-built example from 2015, it has the traditional semi-hollow construction that made the 335 so versatile in the first place. The maple body and centre block give it enough focus and sustain for driven tones while retaining the warmth, openness and natural resonance that separate a good ES guitar from a solidbody.
It is a very easy guitar to place musically, covering blues, jazz, classic rock and more expressive lead work without feeling specialised. A timeless Gibson design in one of its best-known finishes, and a particularly appealing example for someone wanting a clean, understated 335 rather than a heavily appointed variant.
