Here at Twin Town Guitars, we're privileged to offer the Gibson Custom 1959 ES-355 Reissue—a work of art for the serious player and collector. Featured here in a bold Watermelon Red, this semi-hollow beauty is a masterful reimagining of the classic 1959 ES-355, with vintage-sounding tones, impeccable construction, and a unique appearance that'll turn heads wherever you play.

Handcrafted with attention to each detail, Murphy Lab Light Aged treatment adds this guitar the most beautifully worn-in look and feel—a nod of respect back to the earliest vintage models. The VOS (Vintage Original Spec) finish adds even greater character, transferring the spirit of a classic onto the instrument while not sacrificing anything in the fine craftsmanship you expect from Gibson Custom Shop.

With dual humbucking pickups, this ES-355 produces smooth, warm jazz tones through to biting rock tones with perfection, clarity, and definition. The semi-hollow design creates the ideal blend of resonance and sustain, bringing each note to life with full-bodied richness.

With a luxurious ebony fretboard, mother of pearl inlays, and gleaming gold hardware, the aesthetic of this guitar is as striking as its tone. Whether you’re performing on stage or adding to your collection, this is a guitar built for players who want the best of both worlds—classic style and modern playability.

Completed with a high-end case, this Gibson 1959 ES-355 Reissue is a work of music as much as it is a work of art. Visit Twin Town Guitars, and we'll be happy to help you add this legendary guitar to your musical repertoire.
