The Golden Era of the Gibson Thinlines

Here is a beautiful example of a first-year 1958 ES-335T with some very rare birds-eye figure in the top.

Notice the label showing ES-335T. Many of the early 335s do not have the TD designation, just a T.

Other pictures show the typically low ABR-1 resulting from the early shallow neck angle on 335s as well as some great finish checking on this guitar.

This guitar is from the collection of Tom Wittrock, a good freind and host of the Vintage Les Pauls area of the Les Paul Forum.
