Sell Your 1966 Gibson ES 335 Guitar at Auction

The Gibson ES 335 was first released in 1958 and was the first commercially available thinline semi-hollow bodied electric guitar that features two hollow chambers divided by a maple block down the center of the guitar. The ES 335 was designed as a hybrid of a solid body guitar, such as the Gibson Les Paul, and a hollow body. The ES 335 produces a sound that is popular with blues, jazz and rock musicians. Musicians such as David Crosby, Chuck Berry,  John Scofield and John Mayer have helped popularize the guitar.
