A rare opportunity to acquire one of the most sought-after modern Gibson artist models. This 2007 Gibson Custom Shop Dave Grohl Signature DG-335 is an early example from the original limited run, bearing the serial number 101 of 200.
Inspired by Dave Grohl’s own heavily modified 1960s Trini Lopez model, the DG-335 became an instant classic. It merges the tonal heart of a vintage ES-335 with a distinct and aggressive aesthetic. The iconic Pelham Blue finish, diamond f-holes, and split diamond inlays give the instrument an unmistakable stage presence, while the semi-hollow construction delivers the warmth, resonance, and feedback resistance that made these guitars famous.
The sonic signature of this model comes from its specific pickup configuration: a Gibson Burstbucker 1 in the neck position and a slightly hotter Burstbucker 2 in the bridge. This combination provides everything from articulate clean tones to the powerful, harmonically rich overdrive that is central to Grohl's sound.
Condition Report This instrument is in superb overall condition. It has been meticulously cared for and shows minimal signs of play. As is common and often desirable with aged Pelham Blue finishes, the back of the body exhibits a slight, even fading to a greenish hue, creating a beautiful and authentic patina. It is structurally and electronically perfect.
