The Gibson ES-359 is a semi-hollow body guitar which is manufactured in Gibson's Memphis Custom Shop in Memphis Tennessee . The guitar is an upscaled version of the ES-339, featuring gold hardware, a multi-ply binding on the front and back of the body, and block pearloid inlays on the fretboard.
The Gibson ES-359 closely related to the ES-355, although the body is smaller than the ES-355, closer to the size of a Les Paul model.
In terms of electronics, the ES-359 uses what Gibson calls the Memphis Tone Circuit, which preserves the high frequencies as the volume is decreased.
