Asbury Park Vintage Guitars is thrilled to present this Amazing 1958 ES-335 Dot Neck in 100% all original condition with no alterations, repairs or modifications, with the cleanest near Mint pink Lifton case (with Case Key!). This is the best priced all original '58 ES-335 available on the market and is a truly superb example of a 1958 unbound dot neck, featuring the thin resonant top, original stop tail piece, brown switch tip, single ring / single line Kluson tuners, Long Guard, body binding, a really great neck angle for a 1958 (before they changed the neck angle at the factory in 1959), and of course, absolutely incredible sounding PAF's that are rich in harmonics and sound so very very great. The pickups in particular, on this guitar, sound so above and beyond what words can describe. We have A/B'd this guitar against many 58-60 ES-335's and Les Pauls and these pickup are the tops of the lot, with bite, growl, glass, overtones, and are extremely touch sensitive. The original mellow tobacco burst finish is in excellent condition, and looking at it straight on does not reveal any checking. When you look at an angle, in certain places, you can make out some light checking (see pics). The action is very low and buttery to play, with the classic chunky C neck that 1958 is known for, and an amazing rosewood fingerboard. The original ABR-1 bridge has not been shaved. This guitar comes in the cleanest, newest looking near mint original Lifton pink lined case that you have ever seen, and comes with the original case key! The MINT Case w key, alone is worth $1,300. This is an opportunity to acquire an all original '58 Dot neck at a price lower than what other examples which have had modifications are listed for!!!! Shipping is for within Continental USA. For shipping outside of CUSA will quote separately.
