The Gibson ES-335 was developed 1957th They wanted to build a guitar, on the one hand technically sound came up close to solid-body guitars, but on the other hand should have a weight advantage over above-mentioned models. The series was called semi-solid guitar. The pickups were in the wooden block, which runs between the ceiling and floor as a continuation of the neck, fitted. This had a good sustain the effect. Also the sound side were the two "f"-shaped openings that we know of, for example a violin.
The body of the 1958 ES-335T was constructed from maple, mahogany neck with a rosewood fretboard rosewood. Color, there were 1958 two versions: "Sunburst" and "Natural " (ES-335TN). 1960, then the painting "cherry red"to (ES-335 TDC). Over the years, there were some follow-up models such as ES and ES -345 -340.
Gibson - Les Paul
The first Les Paul was released Gison 1952nd It should be Gibson's answer to the best seller of the company Fender Telecaster. In principle, the Les Paul is set up: the ceiling (above) is made of maple, because of the light and crisp sounds, the bottom (below) is made of mahogany, because of the warm and soft sounds. 1954 would then be used to tune-o-matic Bridge and then followed 1957, the humbuckers.
This combination gave this guitar its unique sound. In 1958 the company offered the Gibson Les Paul cherry sunburst with a painted ceiling in. This guitar is now known as Les Paul Standard. To date, brought countless different models on the market. An overview of this, it at the official Gibson website. By the fat humbucker sound, the guitar ethablierte in almost all areas of music. Variables such as Gary Moore and Slash take advantage of these guitars!
