{"product_id":"1961-gibson-es-335tdc-5184","title":"1961 Gibson ES-335TDC","description":"The “Dot-Neck” era of the ES-335 aligns with the golden years of Gibson’s most sought after Electric Spanish Thinline model. Produced from 1958 into early 1962, these first ES-335s feature “Mickey-Mouse ear” bodies, PAF pickups, no-wire ABR bridges, nickel hardware, and 1-11\/16 nut widths - all of the most desirable specs one can find on a 335. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nBuilt in the latter half of the “Dot-Neck” era, this vibrant cherry red 1961 ES-335TD is a truly exceptional example of the model. The unfaded finish shows minimal signs of player-caused wear and the nickel hardware is almost entirely untarnished. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nA particularly lightweight 1961 Gibson ES-335TDC loaded with an excellent-sounding pair of PAF pickups, this guitar offers full bodied and harmonically rich tones with a beautiful airy top-end. While the fat-neck 335s the late ‘50s are historically the most sought-after examples, many notable guitarists in recent years have discovered the merits of the 60-62 Dots, as their thinner necks impart something extra special in the top-end sonic quality of these instruments. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nThis guitar is in excellent condition and is unmodified with the exception of non-original solder on the bridge pickup cover, which suggests that it was removed in the past. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\nHoused in its original brown and pink Lifton hardshell case, this 1961 Gibson ES-335TDC is an incredible package that would be at home in any collection, studio, or stage. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\r\n1-11\/16” nut width, 24.75” scale. Neck depth of .813” at the 1st fret. Pickup DC readings of 8.1k (bridge) and 7.9 (neck), 5.4lbs.\r\n","brand":"GIBSON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53614231322990,"sku":"210000007170","price":32995.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/172859323926571961_Gibson_ES335TDC-1024-2Main.jpg?v=1790971796","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/1961-gibson-es-335tdc-5184","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
