I've never seen a 335 look so good.

and look what it had inside:

i sold it some years ago on ebay for $8900 to pay a sheetload of bills and stuff. damn i had so little feedback (must've scared people off).
i shoud've held onto it for some time more. but i was just too paranoid having it at home...

Pat. :(

No doubt! Plug it in to a little Marshall 18 watter or hell, go for the money shot with a bluesbreaker, and throw down! Just heard Tales of Brave Ulysses on my way home from work!

God, what an instrument. One of these days I'll have a 335 in sunburst, because that is the Only Pretty Guitar.

Oh man, this thread makes me GAS for this 12-string at Capsule Music here in Toronto. I played it and it sounds great! $2500

BONAR.  Probably my favorite Gibson after a Gold Top LP with P90s

not quite as cool but i had this '82 es 335 for a while. from my personal experience the key to a good 335 is the size of the neck. big, fat neck es335s stay in tune better and i swear they sound better too! i dunno what the necks were like the '62 or '64 gibsons but those earliest 335s had chunky necks!
