EPIPHONE INSPIRED BY GIBSON ES-335 FIGURED

The addition of semi-solid and acoustic models to Epiphone’s Inspired By Gibson series is both inevitable and welcome. It’s all about giving players much more of the Gibson look and feel at an affordable price so, in common with the Inspired By solidbodies, this ES-335 has the open-book Kalamazoo headstock and hand-wired CTS control pots.
