1968 Gibson ES-335 TD – Sparkling Burgundy

We present an original 1968 Gibson ES-335 TD in its original Sparkling Burgundy finish. Made in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

This Gibson ES-335 is in excellent condition with no cracks, breaks or any repairs. It’s all original expect for new frets and nut. The stock “Patent Number” sticker humbuckers are powerful and articulate, and the maple semi-hollowbody allows for a quick attack of this particular tone wood, and also an airy, warm quality.

Acoustically, the tone is very clear and resonant, and this quality translates well to the pickups. The neck has a profile which is unique to Gibsons from ’66-68, beginning as a fairly slender C-down at the nut and quickly growing in both depth and shoulder to a bigger neck.

This ES-335 is in its original Sparkling Burgundy finish. The color has faded into a Copper color that looks really beautiful and has a lot of mojo. There is lots of nice finish checking all over the body and nicks, dings and other cosmetic wear that comes naturally from a guitar that have been played and loved a lot.

The bound rosewood fretboard features pearloid block inlays. The headstock has minor nicks and dings and features the original Kluson Deluxe double line/double ring tuning machines. All of them turn smoothly and hold pitch as they should. The orange oval Gibson label has a clean text and a serial number which matches that imprinted serial number back of the headstock. The bridge is the original chrome Gibson Tune-o-Matic. The original chrome trapeze tailpiece is intact, black hat knobs, as well as the stock pickguard, switch tip and pickup covers.

Pickups and the electronics/wiring remain untouched and intact, with no broken solder joints, no re-wound pickups. All original and correct.

Comes with its original hardshell case with black exterior and plush yellow/orange interior. The latches and handle are also intact.
