Only a handful of guitarists receive the honor of a Gibson Signature Model, and even fewer are as intimately involved in the creation of the instrument that bears their name as six-string hero Johnny A.
We recently asked the Boston-based instrumental virtuoso to tell us the story of the creation of the Johnny A. Signature Model.

10 Giants of the ES-335
Asked about his devotion to the ES-335, six-string great Larry Carlton once said the instrument allowed him “to go between blues, and jazz, and rock, with the same guitar.”
It’s that sort of versatility that’s made the ES-335 a favorite among some of the world’s finest players. Since its introduction in 1958, the semi-hollow-body, semi-acoustic classic has earned lavish praise for its warm sound, terrific sustain, resistance to feedback, and great playability. That praise has continued with the recent release of the much-anticipated 50th Anniversary 1960 ES-335TD.
Through the years, a Who’s Who of rock, jazz, and blues players have turned to the 335 at some point in their careers. Young guns such as Jason Wade of Lifehouse and Andrew Stockdale of Wolfmother are increasingly turning to the ES-335, as well.
