The Epiphone Shinichi Ubukata ES-355 is a model that, while preserving the quality specifications of the iconic Gibson ES-355 used by renowned Japanese guitarist Shinichi Ubukata, offers a higher cost performance. This guitar is equipped with two Gibson '57 Classic pickups, a six-position Varitone switch, a Bigsby B70 vibrato, an ebony fretboard, and Grover Rotomatic tuners, making it a full-spec instrument. The Ver.01 of this model sold out immediately upon release.
While the body has some minor scratches, they are not particularly noticeable. The neck is straight, and the frets have 70-80% of their life remaining. It comes with a custom hard case featuring a skull mark, enhancing its unique appeal.
