I've never forgotten the first ES 335 I played. A dot neck cherry from 1992. The same year as my Les Paul, identical neck profiles but a sound so good it hurt to leave the shop without it.
For the first time in many years I'm finally in a position to 'go hunting' for my first ES Gibson, but while I can identify a good Les Paul from sheer familiarity I'm lost in the complexity, verity and history of models that have gone through numerous changes over the years.
If you were to point me to three ES 335,s made in the last 10 yrs that I should not ignore in my quest,. Would you mind listing them for me?
You. can list your reasoning for this, I'd be really grateful for your help..
I started this thread in part as I thought it may benefit others in the same position as me
