I think it was one from the 80's, apart from this daft bugger of a picture, I can't find a single other photo of it. Guitars gone.

Of course, all of them !!!

Although if I'm being honest, my playing style/ambitions are far more suited to a full bodied Archtop.

Spoilt for choice with Gibson as well as innumerable other quite fantastic builders.

I think when me next ship comes in that's where I'm headed.

But keeping this thread on course, the 335's are a thing of real beauty, which I appreciate greatly.

So did these '60s normally trapeze 335s have a centre block for the converion to stoptail?
