The Epiphone 1962 ES-335 Reissue, created in partnership with Gibson Custom, revives one of the most iconic electric guitar designs in history. Based on the sought-after 1962 model year, this faithful reissue brings back the legendary features that made the ES-335 a favorite of countless players across rock, blues, jazz, and beyond.

Featuring a 5-ply layered maple/poplar semi-hollow body with a solid maple center block, the 1962 ES-335 delivers exceptional resonance, sustain, and feedback resistance. Its one-piece mahogany neck with a fast-playing 1960s SlimTaper™ C profile and rosewood fingerboard offers incredible comfort and playability, enhanced by small block mother-of-pearl inlays and historically accurate side dot markers.

Equipped with Gibson Custombucker™ pickups, wired with CTS® potentiometers and Black Beauty paper-in-oil capacitors, this reissue offers vintage-correct tonal versatility — from warm cleans to biting blues crunch. A Graph Tech® nut, ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic™ bridge, and historic aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece ensure rock-solid stability and sustain, while Epiphone Deluxe tuners with double ring Keystone buttons complete the vintage look.

Finished in a stunning Vintage Burst, the 1962 ES-335 Reissue is paired with a vintage-style hardshell case featuring Inspired by Gibson Custom graphics, making it both a collector’s piece and a reliable player’s guitar.
