Crafted in the historic Kalamazoo factory by former Gibson artisans, the Heritage H-535 Standard Semi-Hollow Guitar is a premier alternative to the legendary Gibson ES-335. It features a laminated curly maple body, a solid centre block and a traditional '60s neck profile, offering excellent resonance and feedback control. Equipped with premium Seymour Duncan '59s or Heritage 225 humbuckers, this highly articulate and versatile guitar effortlessly covers everything from warm jazz to overdriven rock and blues.

The parent company of Swee Lee, owned by the Kuok family, now owns the factory where these Heritage guitars are manufactured.

A defining piece of musical craftsmanship, this exclusive Heritage H-535 guitar will be autographed by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong. As we celebrate our 10th anniversary at the JASS Benefit Gala 2026, your bid goes beyond acquiring a rare collector's item. It is a direct investment in the cultural heartbeat of our nation.

The autographed guitar will be presented to the winning bidder on stage by Prime Minister Lawrence Wong at the JASS Benefit Gala on 26 September 2026.
