Wondo Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Does anyone know if these can still be gotten? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The '59 & '63 reissues? Yes. They're made in Nashville and are the only true Custom Shop 335s. The rest are made in Memphis and although they have a COA and a Custom Shop case, they're the equivalent of Gibson USA. It's evident by the Gibson USA serial number and "Made in USA" on the back of the headstock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 The '59 & '63 reissues? Yes. The question was about the 355, not the 335. I do not believe that Gibson is making any 355's at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qblue Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I think he is speaking of the ES-355, previously played by BB King before Lucille, and a custom shop model played by A. Lifeson of Rush. I don't think this model is currently produced, including the Alex Lifeson model which was showcased about 2-3 years ago on this ever changing website. It was a production model up until 1982, when it was discontinued.
