In this Gibson and Epiphone ES buyer’s guide, Dinesh walks us through some of the best semi-hollowbody guitars on offer from Gibson Brands. The video includes Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab Aged ES-335 and ES-355 models, Gibson USA ES-335 guitars, and a pair of Epiphone ES guitars, proving beyond doubt that when it comes to versatile all-rounders, the ES-335 is one of the best ever made. And yes the ES-335 DOES do metal!
Sometimes nicknamed the “Burst Killer” because of its supreme versatility and sheer quality of tone, since its introduction in 1958 the Gibson ES-335 electric guitar has been used in all genres, including blues, jazz, country, rock, and even metal thanks to its humbucking pickups.
The semi-hollowbody design provides incredible resonance, airy jangle and a full-bodied sound, making it equally effective as a singer-songwriter’s rhythm instrument or a lead-guitar hero’s go-to model for blazing solos. In addition, combined with the three-way toggle pickup selector switch, the pair of volume and tone controls for each pickup delivers a huge palette of sounds and will be instantly familiar to players of Gibson’s Les Paul and SG models.
In this video Dinesh, walks us through some of the differences between several types of ES guitars, comparing the ES-335 to the ES-355, and Epiphone versus Gibson models to help you learn what sets semi-hollow body guitars apart from solidbody instruments in terms of the sound they produce and they way they interact with amplification.
