Gibson=overpriced. Nice guitars, but completely overpriced and driven by hype. It's a plywood guitar, remember that. Plywood. I would def consider some other brands before I threw down huge money on...
Skip, who passed away in 2023, operated a music store in Sacramento for several decades. His son has retained Heritage to conduct an auction with the proceeds going to charity. Skip amassed a...
It’s unfortunate that you can’t try before you buy. Gibson 335s are generally great instruments. But, of course it has to be right for you. My main electric is a 335 and I find it to be a...
It is definitely the same guitar. I looked at all the old posts and it’s the same one you posted a PSA about. The person who bought it in response to your PSA is the same person I bought it from. It...
Oh yes I played that guitar for sure. Spent some time with it and it is a woody sounding guitar. It keeps up with the best. The neck is a bit full too assuming this is the same one Big Mike had....
I recently bought a used player-condition Eastman AR810CE with floating pickup. I love the sound, and especially through an amp or PA plugged in. I gig regularly, but found I could not play live with...
I can't talk you out of buying a guitar I just bought myself!!! I was going to get another Epiphone 335, in fact I did, but had to return it. So I searched for a better one, and before I did, I...
If you like the sound of a "typical" GIBSON semi-hollow then your choice is manifold but you should also consider the other usual suspects : an Ibanez JSM100, Yamaha SA2000 and various Eastman...
The way my teacher described it seemed it was more like the ‘feeling of the distance between two beats’. Either that or I failed to understand what he meant. Which is likely tbf. Sent from my...
My main reference or guide on improv is playing tunes. My main tool is rhythm (I imagine rhythmic hits and throw notes at them). My co-tool is learning the instrument in such a way that I don’t...
The title says it all. Are the current run of 'standard' ES 335s any good? I've noticed some very appealing prices at Thomann. The 'T Type' pickups seem a bit divisive from the bit of research...
Useful insight. Thank you. Do you see the 3/4 bars as any different? They each follow a 5/8 bar. No equation. Just a different subdivision. If you're feeling 2/4 against the 4/4 and 6/8...
Thanks for the complement, but there are lots of other great players on this forum. It was quite a coincidence to end up with this guitar. I spend winters in Florida and it turned up when I was...
