The release of the Foo Fighters’ latest album serves as a reminder: this is a band that, for decades, has maintained a rare intensity within the rock landscape. Between grunge heritage and modern power, Dave Grohl continues to embody a visceral and sincere vision of music. And what better way to celebrate this new chapter than with a guitar in his image? The arrival at the shop of a Gibson Dave Grohl DG-335 Collector’s Edition, in its legendary Alpine White finish feels like a true celebration dedicated to this timeless sound.
Some guitars do not simply follow the history of rock. They immediately become part of it, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. That is exactly what happens with this Gibson DG-335, a piece that is as rare as it is desirable, offered here with a very low serial number.
Gibson DG-335: the hybrid DNA of Dave Grohl’s guitar
Directly inspired by Dave Grohl’s iconic guitar, the DG-335 retains the hybrid DNA that makes it so distinctive: a perfect blend of a Gibson ES-335 and a Gibson Trini Lopez. The result is a semi-hollow with an instantly recognizable look, but with a resolutely rock attitude built to take on stadiums.
Its diamond-shaped f-holes, Firebird-inspired headstock and powerful humbucker pickups make it a formidable stage machine, designed to deliver as much groove as saturation. It is no coincidence that Dave Grohl has used this model, particularly in its Alpine White finish, on stage with the Foo Fighters since 2021, a version that became absolutely iconic among fans in a very short time.
An ultra-limited Gibson Dave Grohl DG-335 Collector’s Edition
But this Collector’s Edition model goes even further. Produced in just 50 examples worldwide, this ultra-limited series is already becoming a Holy Grail for collectors. Each guitar, made by the Gibson Custom Shop, benefits from an exceptional level of finish, faithful to the spirit of vintage models while offering modern performance. In other words: an exclusive piece from a series that is already impossible to find. The kind of instrument that does not pass through the same hands twice.
This is not, incidentally, the first exceptional DG-335 to pass through the Shop. Some may remember this signed prototype version from the Custom Shop, an extraordinary guitar that had already made a strong impression a few years ago.
More than a signature guitar, this DG-335 is a symbol. A symbol of a sound, an era… and a musician who continues to make contemporary rock resonate. A future collector’s piece. Without a doubt. So, celebrate the Foo Fighters with the album, their June concert in Paris or, better yet, this guitar!
