1979 ES-335TD

1979 Gibson ES-335TD featuring a strong maple neck with a solid core sound

The ES-335, introduced in 1958, is synonymous with semi-acoustic guitars and has been played by many great players and produced many great performances. This creates a vibrating system that is similar to that of a solid guitar, while still having an acoustic feel, and produces a tone with rich sustain. This 1979 ES-335TD model has a strong maple neck that produces a more solid sound than a mahogany neck. The neck grip is grippy and tapered. The high end of the range is also firm, so even when distorted, the sound is not buried, and a pleasant distortion can be obtained. Vintage ES-335 with large head and other distinctive features.

The actual playing impression is that there is a sense of edge, but it is not too hard, and "it is nice when distorted lightly". I imagined a narrow neck from the 70's, but it has a grippy feel, with a thicker grip on the side of the neck, and I feel it is a little thick for me to hold it. The taper is strong, so low-position chord work may not be to everyone's liking, but even those who say, "I don't like maple necks," will find that this is an individual that can be used without too much discomfort. It is an easy-to-handle instrument with a standard stop tailpiece and one toggle knob.
