1979 Gibson ES-335 TDW Semi-Hollow Vintage Guitar Walnut, Tarback + DiMarzio Super Distortion, Case
1979 Gibson ES-335 TDW Semi-Hollow Vintage Guitar Walnut, Tarback + DiMarzio Super Distortion, Case
Up for sale, a 1979 Gibson ES-335 TDW in excellent condition and in perfect working order, complete with a hardshell case. This vintage ES-335 has been hot-rodded with a ā70s DiMarzio Super Distortion in the bridge position, a brass nut, and a set of Grover Rotomatic tuners. This particular ES-335 is also notable for featuring a full 1 11/16ā nut width, an uncommon feature on most other concurrently-produced ES examples.
The semi-hollow maple body features a particularly dark Walnut gloss nitro lacquer finish, with light flame figuring along the three-piece maple neck. The original Tarback humbucker in the neck position is fat and full, with a smooth and creamy midrange character, featuring the option to be coil tapped for single coil sparkle via the factory two-way toggle on the treble-side cutaway. The Super Distortion in the bridge position, DiMarzioās ever-popular overwound design, is focused and aggressive, offering plenty of growl and power. This ES-335 TDW weighs 8lbs 4oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mikeās Guitar Bar with 11-49 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
