In this exclusive clip from The Collection, musical icon Peter Frampton and Gibson TV’s Mark Agnesi take a closer look at one of the most immaculate 1959 ES-335™ guitars you’ll probably ever find. Finished in a rare color from the transitional period between 1959 and 1960, this semi-hollow beauty stands out not just for its condition, but because Peter actually says that the ES-335 could be the one guitar he’d choose over anything else. High praise considering Peter Frampton is well known for using his Gibson Les Paul Custom “Phenix.”

Frampton shares why the ES-335 holds such a special place in his heart, explaining how this exact guitar became his go-to on both All Blues and Frampton Forgets the Words albums, and how this particular model is lighter and warmer than his 1964.

From the rarely-seen finish to the untouched neck and the fact that this guitar appears on some legendary albums by Peter Frampton, this is the kind of guitar that turns heads and is one of the rarest guitars in Peter Frampton’s impressive guitar collection. Hear how Frampton acquired it (hint: blame Gary’s Classic Guitars) and why he’d pick a 335 if he could only choose one guitar for life.

If you’re a fan of Peter Frampton and rare guitars in general, this video is for you. You’ll likely never see a cleaner vintage guitar!
