The Gibson CS-336 is in fact a perfect and compact arch top as it is made up out of a solid back and a solid two piece top! This version in TV White with a wrap around bridge and P-90 Pickups is a very HOT one! ultimate cool guitar from the memphis Custom Shop!

It delivers the classic look of the 335 with its elegantly tapered figured-top but the Custom Shops engineers have enhanced the CS-336s playability. Although the CS-336 has the same body lines as the ES-335, the model is scaled down to provide solid body style comfort. And its neck has the slim, "fast" profile of vintage 60s Gibson guitars.

To create truly great resonating properties, the back and sides of the CS-336 are a single piece of mahogany that is shaped inside and out like a classic Gibson archtop, but with a solid center beam running the length of the body from the neck tenon to the tail block. The model's solid, two-piece maple top is also carved inside and out to the shape and thickness of ES-series archtops, but it, too, has a solid center section that matches up to the center beam of the body.
