Traditional Semi-Hollow Construction

The ES-335, as a representative of the semi-hollow construction, features a classically crafted body, which is made of three-ply laminate of maple and poplar wood. The laminate construction, which has been tried and tested since the ES-175, is complemented by a solid center block made of maple, which favors the resonance transmission of the strings into the body and ensures that the ES-335 can be played at high gain settings without any problems. As a special feature of the '61 model, the long neck heel glued mahogany neck of the 1961 ES-335 features the classic slim "SlimTaper '60s C" neck profile of the era.

For the right look and feel of a distinctive replica of the '61 ES-335 model in contemporary Sixties cherry, the entire know-how of Murphy Lab, founded by Tom Murphy, comes into play.

The result is a successful aging process on a heavy Aged level, depicting the condition of an instrument that has been played frequently over decades, with extensive nitro lacquer cracks and strong hardware aging.
