The Story

Used 2008 Alvin Lee Signature ES-335 Electric Guitar Ebony

We have a preowned 2008 Gibson Custom Alvin Lee Signature 335 in overall excellent condition. There are some light surface marks and pick scratches on the guitar, but it's fine otherwise. This Alvin Lee 335 comes from a rare and limited run in Ebony finish. Of course, it's an ES-335 semi-hollowbody guitar featuring maple laminated construction, and a mahogany neck with a '60s profile and a rosewood fretboard with block inlays. Pickups are '57 Classic humbuckers with a Seymour Duncan SSL single-coil pickup in the middle, thus creating a wide variety of tone possibilities. An extra volume control governs the middle pickup. Details include Grover tuners, chrome hardware, a TP-6 fine-tuning tailpiece with a tune-o-matic bridge. Only 50 of these Ebony models were made, so call us today! This instrument is in overall excellent condition.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case, Certificate of Authenticity, and Paperwork
