2008 Gibson ES-335 Custom Shop Fat Neck 59 Reissue Sunburst
No sales tax for customers outside California.
We moved through a bunch of 335s earlier in the year and then came a drought until this limited model showed up - a '59 "Fat Neck" reissue.
What you get here is the look and feel of a '59 Dot Neck with the beefier neck profile of a '58.
The guitar has been very well cared for over the years. There is some light, natural checking, some small dings here and there, and very little fret wear.
Its a great player and it is pretty light too at 8 pounds, 7 ounces. There are no issues, repairs or changes. The truss rod has room for neck relief adjustments and we performed a setup with new 10-46 strings with low action.
Comes with the original case, certificate of authenticity and warranty paper.
