Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-355 Reissue - ebony

The 1959 GIBSON Custom Shop ES-355 Reissue semi-hollow body electric guitar (59ES355VOEBGH1) is a more luxurious version of the benchmark ES-35. It benefits from an Ebony fingerboard and finishes similar to those of the Les Paul Custom. Sold with Custom Shop case and certificate of authenticity. Since 2014, Gibson has been using "Hot Hide Glue" with the characteristics of the adhesives used in the 1950s.
Made from animal proteins, it has the particular advantage of simplifying maintenance and repairs.MaintenanceThe nitrocellulose varnish, as on Gibson period instruments, plays a major role in the instrument's "breathing" thanks to its porous nature (vibrations are not muffled by the varnish). On the other hand, this varnish is relatively sensitive to contact with the plastics and foams of certain stands, as well as to certain excessively detergent cleaning products. To avoid damaging your guitar, we recommend Hercules stands whose foams have a specially designed non-abrasive formula. Gibson cleaning products will ensure effective cleaning and shining without any risk.
