Joey1980 Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Hi I have a Gibson les Paul and love it so am now looking to expand my collection by getting an ES335. However, I don’t have anything like the funds needed to get a full fat es335. I was considering an epiphone Sheraton 2 pro but want to stick with a Gibson if possible. I have seen that the Gibson es335 Studio is a much more affordable option, but I can’t seem to find many at all for sale. Is anyone looking to sell a Gibson ES335 Studio or does anyone know of any for sale? I’ve only seen 1 unmodified example on reverb in the UK but nowhere else can I find one. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wmachine Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 (edited) I'm no help in helping you find one, but you have a good idea there. I have a number of Gibson ES guitars, one being a 2016 ES-335 Studio. Yes, they sold for considerably less and I can tell you they are well worth the money. They gave all the build features and overall quality of standard ES-335. Just less trim. It is surprisingly much closer to a standard ES-335 than a LP Studio is to a standard LP.

Joey1980 Posted December 18, 2021 Author Share Posted December 18, 2021 Lovely looking guitar. I think in a way it looks a lot more tidy and sleek without all the trim and binding. The only one I can find in UK is the 2-knob variant. I really wish they were easier to find. I Might have to go for the epiphone Sheraton 2 pro instead. People say they are great guitars but I bet they’re nowhere near the gibson Es335 studios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
