 2010 Gibson ES-DS 335 Faded Cherry Satin Finish
Scale: 24 3/4" | Nut Width: 1 11/16" | Top: Maple | Back: Maple | ESDSRDCHI12590729

Here is what Gibson themselves has to say about the venerable ES-335 - "History speaks for itself. The ES-335 is one of the most important guitars of all time. Right from its introduction in 1958 as the world’s first semi-hollowbody electric guitar it has been a mainstay of players eager to balance the gorgeous, round, mellow tones perfect for jazz and blues with the edge and sustain of a full-blooded solidbody.

Today the Gibson Custom Shop creates exacting duplicates of the ES-335 as it first left the Kalamazoo plant in 1958. That year just 267 were built, but the original vintage 335s grew steadily in popularity, peaking in 1967 thanks largely to Eric Clapton’s high-profile use of a cherry ES-335 in the band Cream. " From Gibson.com

This 2010 ES-335 features a beautiful Faded Cherry Satin Finish and with a single-ply bound maple body this guitar does bare a familiar vintage look. Some of the fine appointments on this Gibson Custom Shop ES-335 are a Rosewood fretboard, vintage tulip shaped tuners,  57 Classic humbucking pickups, two volume pots, two tone pots, and a three-way pickup selector switch.

This 2010 ES-335 is in excellent condition, there are just a few minor pressure cracks next to the bridge, pickup, and volume and tone knobs that are common with a satin finish, these cracks are not through the body. There is also a minor 2mm ding on the back as seen in the photographs below.
