Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335 Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar - Pelham Blue Reviews
Requested by Foo Fighters fanatics for more than a decade, Dave Grohl’s iconic, diamond-clad semi-hollowbody makes its way into standard production with the Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335. This premium-grade Epiphone immaculately replicates the Grammy winner’s ultra-rare Gibson Custom DG-335 signature model, starting with a crisp and resonant laminated maple body and Trini Lopez–inspired bound diamond-shaped soundholes. Next, the chunky, one-piece mahogany neck proudly supports a laurel fingerboard that’s flush with eye-catching split-diamond mother-of-pearl inlays. It’s all topped off with an angular Firebird-style headstock equipped with Grover Mini Rotomatic tuners, complementing the rock-solid reliability of the LockTone ABR bridge. However, the Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335’s Gibson Custom inspiration reaches far beyond the aesthetic realm — a superb pair of Gibson USA Burstbucker pickups emboldens the DG-335 with a rich, expressive, and remarkably dynamic humbucking roar that’ll show off the best (the best, the best) of your riffs and rhythms. A professional-grade instrument in every respect, the Epiphone Dave Grohl DG-335 is no pretender; it’s the real deal and ready to fuel your “Everlong” alt-rock aspirations.

The Grohl to my Foo
Firstly thanks to Jake Hersha for sorting me out. I always get great service from Jake and the team at Sweetwater. The guitar arrived with no damage and was securely packed. Initial thoughts, the neck is chunky and will take some getting used to but I like it. The fret board looks amazing as does the rest of the guitar. I feel like the pelham blue is lighter than Dave's usual. Despite that, Epiphone did a great job with this one. Plugged it in and this guitar is a beast, the burstbuckers sound amazing and I feel like this is going to be my go to electric for a good while. May pull off the tuners to put on the grover mini locking ones at some stage. If you are a Dave Grohl fan (who isn't) or simply interested in this guitar...then don't hesitate and just buy it. You absolutely won't regret it. In Dave we trust!
Great Guitar, Great Service
First things first. Thank you to Nick Barton for assisting me in getting this guitar. Nick has been my sales engineer for several years now. I really can't say enough about how knowledgeable and helpful Nick has been over the years. What I appreciate most has been the few times I've asked a question he didn't know an answer to, he never tried to B.S. me. He said "I don't know but I'll find out and get back to you.".
I also want to mention Carson Peach. He stepped up and got me some quick answers while Nick was away. Some other places are content to blow you off if "your guy" isn't around. Sweetwater service is ***** star as well.
The Guitar is honestly better than I expected or hoped for. Absolutely perfect fit & finish. It was still in tune, fret ends are fine, nut is spot on. The action is very good, no dead spots or buzzing. Time will tell how well it holds tuning and who knows maybe locking tuners are in the future but as of a few hours (after the 24 hrs. of acclimating) it's just fine.
The hard case is very well made too. Yes, there are other 335 types and makes out there that may be less, but nothing detracts from this guitar. I do recommend it to anyone interested as a player or just a fan.
Worth the wait!
I have wanted this guitar for a long time and was unable to get one of the original Gibson run. I feel like I followed the rumors about this epiphone release for a lifetime. It plays amazing right out of the box. Big shoutout to my sales engineer Logan for all the help.
Wow!
This thing roars!! If you're hesitant because of the price, do not be. It is not your typical "Epiphone" - this baby seriously kicks ***! After shipping it was still practically in tune. It feels, and most important, sounds like a Gibson - especially with the Burstbuckers. Dave Grohl has got to be proud of this one!
Awesome!!
Received it day 1 - thank you, Adam!! I am honestly amazed at how good it feels, looks and plays. Compared to my '64 Trini Lopez custom shop, it is extremely close... the color is a bit lighter than an actual pelham blue, but it still looks awesome. I am attaching a photo next to my '64 Trini.
