This is a Custom Shop 335. Not a historic. It'll have Burst Buckers. A 59 neck. Don't know yet if it's Chrome or Nickel. A CS s/n. And a body profile that is distinctly mid-60s. Two colors are being offered. The other is a sparkling color similar to burgandy but will be called Merlot.

But Nashville for sure. That's why you see my old friend Randy with his mits on it!

Just noticed the horns - since when have they had the ability to do that? Chris, you starred in the Clapton 335 vid from memory - could this be the same tooling that was used for the EC run?

Edit :

Significant difference when compared to the regular shape.

Chris is exactly right. The body shape is identical to my original 64, not a 59, but the neck is quintessential 59. The burstbuckers sound GREAT in it. Here's mine.:jim
