A Revisited ES-335: The Spirit of a Classic, Epiphone DNA

The ES-335 is one of the most iconic electric guitar shapes: the perfect compromise between the warmth of a semi-hollow body and the attack of a solid body. This "Inspired by Gibson Custom" version emphasizes historical codes (silhouette, pickguard, "small block" inlays) while adding a premium touch with its AAA flame maple, resulting in an ES-335 that is as stage-ready as it is versatile.

For Whom and Which Styles?

The ES-335 Figured is aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an expressive instrument comfortable in blues, rock, indie, pop, soul, and even modern jazz. The center block limits feedback at high volumes, making it suitable for stage use with overdrive, while maintaining beautiful resonance for clean tones and nuanced rhythms.

The Sound

The semi-hollow construction with a maple center block provides firmer sustain and better saturation response than a traditional semi-hollow, while retaining an airy attack and dynamic response. The laminated maple favors clear definition in the upper spectrum, ideal for rich chords and arpeggios. The two Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers deliver a warm and articulate tone: a spacious neck pickup for smooth leads, a more biting bridge pickup for riffs, and a very musical middle position for balanced "crunch" sounds. Separate controls (2 volumes, 2 tones) allow fine sculpting of clean-to-saturated transitions and pickup balance.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To stay close to the original string gauge, choose a 10-46 electric string set. A standard strap is compatible with both strap buttons (body and heel), and a guitar stand is suitable for daily storage.
