From Gibson:
Chris Cornell was a modern innovator who left a legacy that transcends genres or expectations. His
voice carried a generation into the unknown, but somehow always got us back home. We miss him
dearly. When we first partnered with Chris to work on his original Gibson ES-335 Artist Model, it was
immediately clear that he also had an innovative eye for guitar design. Features like the aged Lollartron
humbucking pickups, clear “no number” top hat knobs, and Olive Drab satin finish, make this guitar
one of our most distinct Artist Models to date. The Mother of Pearl Chris Cornell “signature” peghead
inlay makes this limited run of 250 pieces a special tribute to the celebrated artist.
