Necks are now attached using hide glue, which many argue sounds better than synthetic glue. Gibson Memphis Shop also re-engineered the truss rod, truss rod washer, and anchor to their original form. They also eliminated the tubing that surrounded the truss rod. New Kluson Green Key Tuners now feature proper vintage profile, color, and performance specifications.

Odds of even finding a "block" '335 from the 1960s today are almost zero. The next best thing is to get your hands on the this Gibson Memphis 1963 ES-335 TDC. It has the looks, the sound, and the star power of the real deal.Legendary tone from unpotted MHS humbuckersTonal excellence is yours when you plug the Gibson Memphis 1963 ES-335 TDC into your favorite tube amplifier.
