Fantastic Instrument
Finally bought a 335 after many years admiring everything about them and my initial thoughts are that it even exceeds my expectations! Build and finish are first rate, I chose the satin cherry finish which looks fantastic and has a lovely sheen so not dull or bland. The neck is a rounded C and feels perfect for me, it feels identical to my 60’s Les Paul Standard and the quality of the fretwork & neck binding is excellent, as is the action. The sound is as you would expect ie excellent and it plays great and keeps perfect tune, so a fantastic buy in my view!
Update - a year down the line and I still love it, it’s my go to guitar!

Gibson perfection
Waited a while for this to arrive and doesn’t disappoint. If you don’t have one then you need to correct!

Best guitar ever
I started out on a classical guitar when I was 12 years old. Since then I have owned all sorts of guitars, some electric, some acoustic, some more expensive than others. The Gibson ES-335 is by far the greatest instrument I have ever owned, with my US telecaster as the only possible contender. I had never spent so much money on a guitar as this one, but as soon as I opened it up I was sure that I had bought something special. It’s so versatile and it writes melodies for me.
I got the standard one with the dots instead of the block inlays because I like things simple. I also disagree with people who think cheaper replicas are just as good as Gibsons - there is a lot of difference, and it is worth the money.
