  • Description: Great example of the Gibson ES-335 '59 Reissue in natural finish. Very rare guitar in a left handed model. This guitar is almost all original except for the low E nickel Grover tuner was switched for a chrome tuner. One little ding on the upper treble horn side. The pickups are the original Tim Shaw Humbuckers and really are everything they are cracked up to be. This guitar just sings when plugged in, from jazz to blues to rock, these pickups do it all. Weather checking throughout on the body, but the delicate kind which the Custom Shop tries to emulate. A little arm wear on the lower bass side of the top, again, nothing harsh, just loving play wear. Playability is excellent over the original fret work. Nice big neck profile and a wonderful played in patina. No breaks or repairs, just a super rare lefty that's a great player.
