If you’ve ever been swept away by the reverb-drenched, psychedelic Americana of My Morning Jacket, you know that Jim James is a tone chaser of the highest order. This signature ES-335 is a direct tribute to his go-to workhorse, capturing that elusive balance of vintage grit and modern reliability. Built with a 5-ply laminated maple body and a solid maple center block, this semi-hollow beauty delivers the resonance you crave with the feedback control you need when you’re cranking the gain on stage.

Under the hood, this guitar is all business. A pair of Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers work alongside premium CTS potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors to give you a tonal palette that ranges from smoky jazz cleans to soaring, saturated leads. The "Seventies Walnut" finish offers a sophisticated, throwback aesthetic that looks just as good under stage lights as it does in a studio rack. Whether you're channeling the spirit of rock legends or carving out your own sonic path, this ES-335 provides the sustain and "vibe" that has made the 335 a staple for players like B.B. King and, of course, Jim James himself.
