Description Product Description Here's a semi-hollow with style! A Custom Shop CS-356 with an ebony finish and topped off with gold hardware and a Bigsby tailpiece for adding vibrato to your sound. The gold hardware is a classy touch as always, and the slim taper neck profile and 12" radius make it a great player as well. Ever since 1958, when Gibson introduced the first semi-hollowbody electric guitar, the timeless ES-335, the company's engineers have been fine-tuning the concept of combining the classic look of a hollowbody with the performance of a solidbody. The CS-356 achieves that goal. It features a single piece mahogany body that is tonally carved to include the back, rims and center block from one piece of wood. Added to that are the figured top, and ebony fretboard to give the guitar a classy look with plenty of functionality.
