Hi,

 

Just bought one of the great ES 335 1958 reissues but was not able to find any specs neither on the Gibson site nor elsewhere in the internet. Does anybody know where I can find some? Are there any flyers or brochures out?

 

:D

Hi As far as i know ( I don't know the '59) they differ as follows.

 

The '58 has:

 

- slightly aged hardware

- flat nitro lacquering (not shiny, which I like alot)

- tortoise position markers at the side of the fretboard

- cool color (almost the same as my '59 ES 125)

- really a fat neck

 

Hope that helps.

 

Does anyone knows if the '58 is VOS (It seems so, but the Gibson homepage has no info about that)?
