This Murphy Lab model incorporates all the features that make the ES-335 an icon - the feedback-resistant semi-hollowbody construction, the two humbucking pickups with individual volume and tone controls, the legendary sonic versatility and exceptional playability - and takes it up a notch with an ebony fingerboard adorned with 50s-motif mother-of-pearl block inlays and 22 authentic medium jumbo frets. From the first grip, you will feel an incredible resonance. The "Mojo". A diamond inlay on the head, a multi-fold binding and gold hardware reinforce the fact that the ES-355 is the high-end ES model. The attention to detail in this expertly crafted Custom Shop rendition makes it an exceptional recreation of the legendary and highly regarded ES-355 from 1959. A Lifton holster with five closures is also included. It also has a Light Aged finish made by skilled craftsmen at the Murphy Lab. The Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment, paired with slightly aged hardware, simulates decades of natural wear, giving it the unique character, vibe and feel of an original Gibson era model .
