Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
This Ultra Light Aged Cherry 1961 ES-335 reissue combines a three-ply maple/poplar/maple semi-hollow body with a solid maple center block, which reduces feedback but does not remove it. Its solid mahogany neck has the ’61 Skinny C profile, with an Indian rosewood fingerboard and medium-jumbo frets. Two unpotted Alnico III CustomBuckers connect to a hand-wired CTS 500K and paper-in-oil harness. The lighter Murphy Lab treatment limits finish wear to slight lacquer checking and minimal playing marks.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Amplified semi-hollow parts where the player wants to deliberately use feedback as a musical response.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Rigs where feedback must be fully eliminated; the solid maple center block reduces it but does not remove it.
