    Epiphone ES-335

    Epiphone

    ES-335 2021

    Needs verification

    A locking upgrade built for 10mm holes. Epiphone don't publish this guitar's hole size and it may be smaller, so measure one before buying: 10mm is a straight swap, anything smaller needs reaming.

    Why we say this

    Gotoh specify a 10mm bore for the SG381 housing. Epiphone list the standard ES-335 with Epiphone Deluxe tuners and don't publish the hole size, so it isn't known whether the holes are the modern 10mm or a smaller vintage size. Take one tuner off and measure: 10mm means it drops in, anything smaller means the holes need reaming.

    Schecter
