Epiphone Inspired By Gibson ES-335 LH - vintage sunburst
The semi-hollow body electric guitar EPIPHONE Inspired By Original ES-335 Left Handed (EIES335LVSNH1) is the offshoot of the Gibson ES-335.
This version is equipped with Alnico Classic PRO Alnico 2 pickups, little brothers of the Gibson Classic 57.
Its Maple central block offers resonant tone and feedback resistance.
Fingerboard is made of Laurel. It's a spectacular and often overlooked guitar tonewood. It has the look and feel to that of East Indian Rosewood, offering rich overtones and brilliant highs that produce lively and dynamic performances. It's sound is often compared to that of Brazilian Rosewood.
Ever since the arrival of new CEO James "JC" Curleigh in 2018, a wise businessman with a passion for guitars, Gibson quickly gained its nobility back. Large-scale investment were made to renovate manufacturing base, in order to offer better quality instruments, with a more realistic price, and smartly rethought range of products that will satisfy Gibson lovers regardless their budget.
The Epiphone range of instruments follow the same philosophy with :
- recalibrate product architecture based on Original and Inspired By Gibson Collections, leveraging Gibson quality & heritage
- add to Original platform including USA electrics and acoustics and Masterbilt acoustics made overseas
- simplify nomenclature and price/feature benefits – follow Gibson nomenclature for Inspired by Gibson Collection
- influence and inspire new generations of fans with our Artist Collection
- guitars modeled after Gibson shapes will get the classic Epiphone Kalamazoo headstock.
