What’s Special About a "DEMO" Model?
Gibson guitars marked "DEMO" on the back of the headstock are typically used for in-store demonstrations or trade shows. These guitars may have been handled or played but are still in excellent condition. While they're technically not "new," they are often in perfect working order, and many players love the added character these demo models bring.

This ES-355 features Custombucker Alnico III pickups, providing unmatched clarity, warmth, and power. Combined with its feedback-fighting center block and handwired CTS pots with paper-in-oil capacitors, it offers a dynamic, versatile sound that will shine in any musical genre. The '59 Medium C profile neck is smooth and easy to navigate, making for a superb playing experience. Whether you’re playing in the studio or on stage, this guitar has it all.
