From the world-renowned Gibson Custom Shop comes this truly unique semi-hollow creation. Building upon what makes the ES-335 a legendary instrument, the Gibson Custom 59 ES-355 in Light Aged Watermelon Red finish carries similar special factors and unique traits that add up ultimately to an outstandingly impressive instrument. For any player, it's a delight.

This Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-355 Reissue in light aged Watermelon starts with a three-ply maple and poplar body combined with a solid maple centerblock. Staying light on its feet while resisting feedback, this semi-hollow design has stood the test of time. With its finely crafted body comes a loving visual tribute. This ES-355 has been treated with a meticulously formulated finish from the Gibson Custom Shop Murphy Lab. Designed to recreate the overall and subtle signs of natural finish aging, the Murphy Lab Light Aged finish treatment gives this ES-355 a truly unique look.

Playing this ES-355 presents an exceptionally smooth and sonically impressive experience. Two Custombucker Alnico 3 unpotted humbucking pickups deliver on the decades of knockout tones the ES-355 has become known for. Gibson's resonant and radiant semi-hollow and humbucker combination rings out with glorious warmth and clarity.

Compounding upon this voice and visual presentation, playability is still a crucial priority. A solid mahogany neck outfitted in an Authentic '59 Medium C-Shape profile slips into grip easily and is complemented by a solid ebony fingerboard. Mother of Pearl Split Diamond frat inlays reflect and match this ES-355's Murphy Lab Light Aged gold-finished hardware. An ABR-1 bridge is paired with a lightweight aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece for solid intonation.

The Watermelon Red finish has the look of a faded Gibson "Sixties Cherry", but perhaps a bit more translucent and a touch more pink in the mix. Overall, it's a wildly unique finish that lives on the color wheel in a space all its own. Add in the light aging from the mad scientists at the Murphy Lab and you have a wonderfully original take on a classic ES-355 design.

This ES-355 is dressed to impress with an impressive voice to match. True Gibson Custom Shop skill brings this guitar together for an unparalleled musical experience.

I Wanted to Like It
Style: SPF 50, Size: 1 count (Pack of 1)
I really wanted to like it because of the great reviews it gets with backpackers and generally with people that don't like "greasy hands syndrome" after applying sunscreen. But after using a stick I found that it's just not that good. The good: small, lightweight container. Not greasy. Good protection, I was in the sun all day hiking multiple days straight and only put on sunscreen twice per day and I didn't have any burning... and I burn easily. The bad: Value: the $12.53 sunscreen container only lasted about 8 days. And that was just my arms, neck, and half my face since I wore a shirt and long pants and a wide brim hat every day when hiking. I would expect this amount of sunscreen to last a lot longer than that on such a limited area. I'm not a big person either. Application, chafing: it's the opposite of greasy, almost chalky. You use the stick to apply to your skin in stripes, then you have to "blend it in" by rubbing with the backs of your hands so your palms don't get chalky. Since the stick is so dry this requires a fair amount of force and it chafes as you rub it around. When your skin a bit sandy it hurts. Application, crumbling: on a chilly but sunny morning, about 45 F, I applied sunscreen and small chunks of the stick crumbled off. I watched precious chunks of the already overpriced sunscreen drop to the ground. Residue: while it's not greasy, it's physical sunblock so it gives your skin the characteristic whitish sparkle. That's to be expected. But what I didn't foresee is it will rub off on anything your skin touches. My gear had white chalk-like marks (technically titania powder?) on my shirt collars, backpack straps, sunglasses, and a few other high-touch items. Overall I think it's a neat idea. I'm not overly disappointed with my purchase. But for $12.50 I expect sunscreen to be easier to apply and for the container to last longer than about 8 days. I can't burn $50/month in the summer months when a single container of chemical sunscreen will do the job. Pro tip: you can buy food-safe 3 oz TSA travel containers. Load one of those up with chemical sunscreen and you have something that beats this in every way except for the greasiness, which you can mitigate by picking a lower SPF sunscreen (the 30 SPF you wear is infinitely better than the 50 SPF you skip!).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect Sunscreen for Active Kids!
Coppertone Kids SPF 70 is a must-have for any parent! I’ve tried several sunscreens for my kids, but this one stands out for its reliability, protection, and ease of use. It’s no surprise it’s the #1 pediatrician-recommended brand—it really delivers. What I love most is that it stays on strong, even when my kids are running around, sweating, and jumping in and out of the pool. The water resistance (up to 80 minutes) is a huge plus, especially for long beach days or outdoor sports. I don’t have to constantly reapply it every 20 minutes like with some other brands. It’s also gentle on sensitive skin—my kids haven’t had any reactions, and there are no dyes or PABA, which gives me peace of mind. The lotion goes on smoothly, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave that sticky or greasy feeling. The SPF 70 protection is fantastic, especially for long summer days in the sun. And with a generous 8 oz bottle, it lasts a while even with frequent use. If you’re looking for a sturdy, effective, and kid-friendly sunscreen, this is the one. It keeps my little ones protected so they can just focus on having fun—and I can relax knowing they’re covered!

Kid friendly
This sunscreen is amazing! It goes on smoothly, isn’t sticky, and absorbs quickly. My kids don’t mind applying it at all, which makes outdoor time much easier. It provides excellent sun protection, keeps their skin safe during play, and doesn’t cause any irritation. The scent is mild and pleasant too. Definitely my go-to sunscreen for my kids—highly recommend!

Excellent Protection for Active Kids
The Coppertone Kids Sunscreen Lotion, SPF 70 has become a must-have in our outdoor routine. This sunscreen provides outstanding protection for my child’s skin, and I trust it to keep them safe during long hours outside. Reliable Sun Protection for Kids This sunscreen offers excellent SPF 70 protection, which is ideal for active kids who love being outdoors. I appreciate that it’s designed specifically for children, and it holds up well during activities, even with a lot of sweating or water play. Slightly Thick, but Worth the Effort The only small drawback is that it’s a bit thick, making it a little difficult to squeeze out of the bottle. However, once applied, it absorbs well and doesn’t leave a sticky residue, so it’s worth the minor inconvenience. Final Thoughts Overall, Coppertone Kids Sunscreen Lotion is an effective, reliable option for parents looking to keep their children protected in the sun. Despite the thicker consistency, it’s easy to apply and provides lasting coverage—highly recommended for peace of mind outdoors!
