2024 Gibson ES-355 ‘59 Reissue

Matt Munisteri demonstrates the thin-body electric that he uses in his latest batch of lessons in his Western Swing Guitar course on Peghead Nation.

Peghead Nation instructor Matt Munisteri is a vintage guitar aficionado (check out his demos of his 1930 Gibson Master Model L-5, 1949 Gibson L-5N, and 1957 Gibson L-5CES), but recently, he’s been trying out a 2024 Gibson ES-355 ‘59 Reissue at home to explore some semi-hollowbody sounds. Matt’s most recent video shoot for his Peghead Nation Western Swing Guitar course coincided with a California tour where the 355 was his guitar of choice. While taking a break from his lessons, Matt demonstrated the guitar with it plugged into a Fender Hotrod Deluxe in our studio.

To study guitar with Matt, see his Roots of Jazz Guitar, Swing Guitar Soloing, The Song According to Matt Munisteri, and Western Swing Guitar courses on Peghead Nation!
