DON'T MISS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A QUALITY INSTRUMENT! In 1958 gibson introduced a guitar with a wood block that was glued to the top and back of the body which ran through the guitars' center leaving the sides empty , the guitar was called the gibson es-335 , the first semi-hollow body guitar. The wood block not only made the es-335 guitar more solid but it also enhanced its woodiness warm sound and sustain. It's ingenious body design structure plays a major role in gibson' history and paved the way for many gibson legendary guitars to come. Cherished by many artists such as bb-king , eric clapton, chuck berry , joe perry, keith richards , george harrison, ritchie blackmore ... just to name a few. The es-335 is coined by many as the best all around guitar in the world because of its versatility. In 1958 when gibson first launched the es-335 at a list price of approximately $270 the guitar became an instant success and continued its historical journey until this very day. The first year in production the es-335 had a brazilian rosewood fingerboard with dot inlays , 2 humbuckers , bigsby vibrato or stop tailpiece , bound top and back , neck joins the body at the 19th fret , 4 knobs ( 2-vol 2-tone ) , tune o matic bridge , pickguard extends below the bridge , large fat neck , and were made in sunburst or natural finishes . (this model is highly desirable and sought after by collectors). Introduced in 1958, the ES-335TD ("Thin Double-cutaway") cemented Gibson's reputation for cutting-edge innovation combined with classic traditional design. The thin body was easier for players to hold, the inner block enhanced sustain and reduced feedback, and the new PAF humbucking pickups set a new standard for quiet operation, high output, and sweet, fat tone. Small wonder that the 335 became an instant classic, and has remained one of the worlds' most popular electric guitars to this day. 1959 : Cherry finishes were added 1960 : The es-335 had shorter pickguards and thinner necks 1961 : Natural finishes were discontinued 1962 : Dot inlays on the fingerboard were replaced with block inlays 1965 : Trapeze tailpiece replaced the stop tailpiece 12 string version also introduced 1966 : indian rosewood fingerboard instead of brazilian 1969 : walnut finishes were available GIBSON GUITARS CURRENT ESTIMATED VALUE (AS OF 2008) 1958 > $60 000 to $75 000 ( Natural ) 1958 > $50 000 to $60 000 ( Natural-Bigsby ) 1958 > $34 000 to $41 000 ( Sunburst ) 1958 > $32 000 to $39 000 ( Sunburst-Bigsby ) 1959 > $75 000 to $100 000 ( Natural ) 1959 > $50 000 to $65 000 ( Natural- bigsby ) 1959 > $40 000 to $55 000 ( Sunburst ) 1959 > $35 000 to $40 000 ( Sunburst-bigsby ) 1960 > $25 000 to $35 000 ( Cherry ) 1960 > $35 000 to $50 000 ( Natural ) 1960 > $25 000 to $35 000 ( Sunburst ) 1961 - 1962 > $26 000 to $32 000 ( PAFs ) 1961 - 1962 > $25 000 to $32 000 ( Pat # ) 1963 - 1964 > $19 000 to $27 000 ( prices vary according to specs & color ) 1965 - 1969 > $4 500 to $9 000 ( prices vary according to specs & color ) 1970 - 1976 > $3 500 to $4 600 1977 - 1981 > $2 000 to $3 200 ...Thanks-....AlleyRecords...Authorized Rimage, Primera and Microboards Dealer..PLEASE SEE EBAY STORE....PLEASE CALL 1.866.77.ALLEY FOR QUESTIONS REGARDING PRINTER INK ...THANKS...PLEASE SEE EBAY STORE...
