Full Description
View Full DescriptionDistinct semi-hollow design
Inspired by the best of Gibson. The ES-235 features a beautifully unique, semi-hollow design that oozes with distinct tonal character. Bearing resemblance to the iconic Les Paul and ES-125, Gibson have blended two of their most cherished models. And it's certainly a welcome combination.
Distinctive and characterful – the sonic qualities of the ES-235 are simply breathtaking. And it’s all thanks to the semi-hollow construction. By allowing each note to resonate freely around the body, your sound will naturally project with rich personality. So your chords can echo through the room, along with the unique voice of your lead-playing. You can always rely on the ES-235 to deliver an authentic, well-rounded tone in every performance. It's guaranteed to astonish your audience, and it does so with sheer elegance. Infuse your sound with the heritage of hollowbody.
Stunning clarity
Feedback. It’s the bane of every hollowbody guitarist’s performance. Thankfully, the ES-235 waves goodbye to such problems. Gibson are renowned for ensuring that every one of their instruments is tailored for a live setting. Which is why the ES-235’s semi-hollow design allows you to crank the volume as loud as you want, without being interrupted by any unwanted noise. Therefore, you can count on your sound to maintain exceptional clarity and definition with every note you play. Hollowbody sound, made easy.
Classic tone, modern standards
Original Gibson sound, refined for the modern day. The ES-235 comes equipped with a pair of Burstbucker Pro pickups, taking you back to the dawn of Gibson’s iconic humbucker tone. Based on their very first PAF humbucker pickup, the Burstbucker Pro encapsulates all the vintage qualities that planted the foundation for rock ‘n’ roll. Offering superb bite and brightness, the Burstbucker Pros provide an enhanced tone in every aspect of your playing.
They’re crafted to the standards of modern performance. Put simply, these exceptional pickups specialise in delivering the same classic Gibson tone, with components built to the highest quality. Fitted with an Alnico V magnet, these humbuckers know how to kick out the hot rock tones you crave, with unmatched clarity. No matter your taste, the ES-235 ensures your sound showcases the coveted vintage flair of Gibson, with every note you play.
Exceptional at any volume
Get the best out of your sound. Many guitars can lose sound quality when the volume is turned down. Dynamism can be lost and, as a result, the overall audio becomes a little darker. Thanks to the innovative Memphis Tone Circuit, wired with 500K potentiometers and ceramic capacitators, this is not an issue. Every step has been taken to preserve sound quality, ensuring tonal depth and clarity remains - no matter the volume.
Crafted for maximum comfort
Refined for the modern stage. The Gibson ES-235 is specially built for an effortless playing experience. First off – the neck. Sculpted into a rounded ‘C’, the single piece maple neck feels just right in the palm of your hand. Paired with a sleek rosewood fretboard, position changes have never been simpler. So you can have complete control over every inch of the guitar’s scale, and play with ultimate freedom.
There’s more to the ES-235’s immaculate playability than just the neck, though. Its semi-hollow construction creates a real sense of weightlessness in your performance. And, as a result, you can indulge in a totally unrestricted playing experience, with unlimited access to the upper frets thanks to the single-cutaway shape. No more restraints. Just you, the stage, and a guitar that’s destined for inspiring performance.
