GibsonES-335 Figured Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar - Dark Purple Burst

For more than six decades, the ES-335 has set the standard for semi-hollow performance, blending warmth, sustain and remarkable versatility in a design that continues to shape modern music. Built with a three-ply AAA figured maple/poplar/maple body and a solid maple center block, the ES-335 Figured delivers the resonant openness of a semi-hollow electric guitar while maintaining the sustain, feedback resistance and tonal focus needed for everything from jazz, blues and classic rock to modern gain-driven styles. A Rounded C mahogany neck and bound rosewood fingerboard provide a smooth, familiar playing feel, while Calibrated T-Type humbuckers and handwired electronics deliver articulate tone with exceptional dynamic range. Premium hardware including Vintage Deluxe tuners and a lightweight aluminum ABR-1 bridge completes a refined ES-335 experience built for expressive players across virtually any genre. AAA Figured Maple Construction With Classic ES-335 Resonance The ES-335 Figured pairs Gibson’s iconic semi-hollow construction with highly figured AAA maple for a tone that is both rich and articulate. The three-ply AAA figured maple/poplar/maple body produces exceptional resonance and dynamic response, while the solid maple center block adds sustain and helps control unwanted feedback at higher volumes. Quartersawn Adirondack spruce bracing further enhances tonal balance and structural strength, giving the guitar a lively acoustic quality without sacrificing focus or clarity. Together, these elements create the unmistakable ES-335 voice: warm, open and harmonically complex while remaining versatile enough to adapt to any playing style. Rounded C Mahogany Neck With Smooth Rosewood Fingerboard Feel A mahogany neck with a comfortable Rounded C profile gives the ES-335 Figured a familiar, substantial playing feel that balances vintage Gibson character with smooth modern playability. The bound rosewood fingerboard adds warmth and fluid response under the fingers, while 22 medium-jumbo frets and acrylic small block inlays maintain the guitar’s timeless semi-hollow aesthetic. A 12" fingerboard radius supports both comfortable chord work and expressive lead playing with wide bends and fluid phrasing across the entire scale length. Calibrated T-Type Humbuckers With Handwired Electronics Gibson’s Calibrated T-Type humbuckers give the ES-335 Figured its articulate vintage-inspired voice with balanced output, clear note separation and smooth harmonic response. The neck pickup produces warm cleans and expressive lead tones, while the bridge pickup adds focused attack and upper-mid presence for crunchy rhythm work and singing solos. Handwired controls with Orange Drop capacitors preserve clarity and dynamic nuance throughout the guitar’s tonal range, allowing players to move seamlessly between clean textures, edge-of-breakup warmth and fully saturated overdrive. Vintage Deluxe tuners with keystone buttons, a lightweight aluminum ABR-1 bridge and aluminum stopbar tailpiece contribute to excellent tuning stability, sustain and overall resonance. Additional premium details, including cream fretboard and body binding, nickel hardware and black Top Hat knobs with silver reflectors, complete the guitar’s refined semi-hollow presentation.
