swampash Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 I'm posting this in a few different places. I've owned a 2003 Custom Shop ES-355 since 2018 and I acquired it in a famous Irish Vintage Guitar dealer, Some Neck Guitars. I've always been interested to understand what specific year it's supposed to be a reissue of or whether it's a one off. It has a fully functional varitone but it's a mono guitar which I've never seen before, usually mono 355 have no varitone switch. It also has OX4 pickups. Guitar has all relevant paperwork etc and is 100% genuine. Any help is greatly appreciated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrdinaryNimda Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Nice pics of a beautiful ES! 😄 What gauge strings are on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsongs Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 It’s a beauty! Good luck finding serious accurate Specs.. For the most part, as we’ve learned on this Forum, Gibson owners don’t think they’re important enough to warrant correct Specs & Spec Sheets for Gibson Guitars.. The Serial number can tell you a few details.. Their are websites that can assist… Good luck.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 I cant resist chiming in with praise for that beauty. Stunning looker. I suggest calling Gibson direct and asking them. The phone number will be at the bottom of this page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
