Introducing the new Gibson Custom Shop Gary Clark Jr. Signature ES-355 VOS in Cobra Burst, a limited edition model of which only 100 instruments are made!
Inspired by the moment he first saw B.B. King wielding one on stage, Clarks ES-355 has become his new number-one guitar.The Gary Clark Jr. ES-355 features a three-ply maple/poplar/maple body with a figured maple outer layer, a mahogany neck with a 50s Rounded Medium C profile, and a bound ebony fretboard equipped with 22 Historic medium jumbo frets and adorned with mother-of-pearl block inlays. The body has multi-ply top and back binding, and the headstock is also multi-ply bound and features the Custom split diamond inlay in mother-of-pearl and is equipped with Grover Rotomatic with Kidney button tuners.
The Gary Clark Jr. ES-355 is powered by a pair of unpotted Custombucker pickups with Alnico 3 magnets that are wired to CTS audio taper potentiometers and paper-in-oil capacitors, along with a Switchcraft three-way toggle switch and 1/4 output jack. The volume and tone controls are topped with black Top Hat knobs with silver reflectors and equipped with dial pointers. A mono Varitone control with a black chicken head knob provides even more tonal versatility. The hardware is VOS nickel, including the ABR-1 Historic no-wire bridge, and the guitar is finished in a striking VOS Cobra Burst finish. A Bigsby B7 Vibrato adds additional expressiveness. The included Gibson Custom hardshell case has a brown exterior, black plush interior, and Gary Clark Jr. graphics on the exterior.
