Great thread! Here's my '59 ES-225TD. Don't mind the Epiphone case- it's in better shape than the '60s Gibson case that the guitar was sold to me in.

I have a brand new $350 Epiphone ES-335 Pro as well. It's a really good guitar but not really in the scope of what's being shown here.

If the '59 neck profile is your cup-O-tea, then the RA is the one for you... The pickups in that thing are great too... :peace2

Bummer Kenny. That's not what I wanted to hear. The '59 neck are just a little too thick for my hands. Oh Well.

Maybe they'll come out with another RA with a 60's neck. That would do the trick!!!

WOW!!!. I agree with Kenny. That is a BEAUTIFUL guitar,and it just happens to be made my birth year.

That would be awesome to find a '59 like yours. One of the days........

The most beautiful to my eyes, and yes I sold the LC at half price (broken head).

The 335 neck seemed way too slim, and even the 330 neck / body junction feels better to me, the guitar feels closer & lighter of course. So I'm left with a set of Tom Holmes!!!!:salude

LS, that 330 looks amazing. What year is it? I bet it sounds incredible.

I guess this is what happens to an ES when you REALLY love it and play the hell out of it.

Here's Elvin Bishop's ES-345
