Youtube has changed the face of music tuition forever, allowing tutors an almost unlimited reach and students a huge selection of content. If you’re ever faced with a technique or skill that you can’t quite get to grips with, you can be sure there's a Youtube video covering it in fantastic detail!
One guy who has really surfed this wave and made a serious name for himself is online guitar tutor, Marty Schwartz. We’ve all seen Marty, we’ve all probably spent time watching his videos and appreciating his direct, no frills delivery and lesson structure. With over 3.5 million subscribers and 2 billion video views, he’s respected and has helped thousands of players get a better grasp on their instrument.
Gibson has decided to honour his input into the guitar industry with a super cool Epiphone signature model, the Epiphone Marty Schwartz ES-335.
There are certain guitars that stand the test of time and with its timeless design, effortless playability and rich history, it's easy to see why the ES-335 remains such an iconic guitar. So let’s dive into the specs and see why the Epiphone Marty Schwartz ES-335is such a brilliant addition to an already stacked range.
Featuring a 5-ply layered Maple body, with a AAA Flame Maple veneer, it's finished in a slick ‘60s Cherry. A classic look, it really captures the magic of the golden era ES models.
The neck is something special, crafted from Mahogany; it features a gorgeous Indian Laurel fingerboard, embellished with Pearloid small block inlays. With 22 frets and a 24.75” scale length it feels smooth and comfortable, equally at home playing slick lead work or heavy chord strumming. The ‘60s SlimTaper Rounded C profile is a great platform and feels substantial but not overbearing.
A pair of Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers delivers those classic PAF tones, deep, rich and resonant they offer great clarity. Each pickup also benefits from a push/pull tone control for coil split, offering an even greater range of tones and textures.
This is a serious guitar and much more than just another signature guitar, it’s a great opportunity to get a ‘60s spec, small block ES-335 without the huge Gibson price tag, this guitar is a winner!
