The Trad Pro features traditional construction

Epiphone used 5-ply maple to construct the body, making the Trad Pro strong and lightweight. It's sturdy enough for the tour bus without being a backbreaker. The semi-hollow design gives it a touch of hollowbody tone with the stability of a solidbody—the same recipe Gibson President Ted McCarty cooked up for the first ES-335 in ’58.

Humbuckers with extra "oompf"

Early P.A.F. pickups were most often made with alnico II or III magnets. The Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers in this ES-335 Trad Pro are type V. That makes them slighter hotter than vintage counterparts. A push/pull circuit splits the coils for brighter single-coil sounds.

Updated hardware that solves an age-old problem

Patented in 1954, McCarty's tune-o-matic bridge allowed players to fine-tune the intonation of each string. Paired with a stopbar tailpiece, it's a super-stable combo—until you change the strings. Then, nothing holds them in. With Epiphone's LockTone system, you won't have to dig around dark stages searching for a stray bridge or stopbar—they won't fall off. Another benefit—more sustain.

This is the ES-335 to get for classic sounds at a working musician's price

The Epiphone ES-335 Trad Pro is a solid value in a semi-hollowbody. You can't go wrong. A hardshell case or EpiLite gig bag is available separately.
