The mahogany neck, glued with Hide Glue and Long Tenon, promises optimal playing characteristics with the pleasantly strong "'50s Rounded Medium C" profile up to the 22nd fret of the rosewood fingerboard, where naturally the historically authenticated Dot Inlays mark the positions.

Custombucker Pickups
To ensure that the '59 Reissue ES-335 also meets all vintage demands in terms of sound, it is equipped with Gibsoncustombucker pickups in the neck and bridge positions. Thanks to Alnico III magnets and non-waxed coils, the humbuckers walk in the footsteps of the legendary PAF pickups and deliver a particularly airy sound, which is characterized by the resonance-friendly character of the Semi Hollow construction and is ideally suited for the classic styles of blues, rock and jazz. A hand-wired circuit with historically correct oil-paper capacitors guarantees optimal tonal adaptability with smooth Treble roll-offs.
