Thanks for the link, Randy. Three guitars of similar vintage year and construction. Yet, their conversation brought out the different personalities of the guitars. Really interesting.

@matonanjin You are welcome. The ES-335 is still high on my list of dream guitars.

When I was looking to buy my first electric guitar I wanted a classic that could play virtually any style of music, one that I would be happy with for a lifetime and would retain or appreciate in value.  After much research (and saving) I settled on the ES335. It was and is still all of those things. Surprisingly I dont play it all the time, but when I do, it never disappoints. When I put it down , I always end up saying to myself " thats a great guitar".

Anyone that feels they need the different guitars for different needs (all of us?) should have one of these in the herd/stable.  This is just one of those "must have" categories.  As you probably know I have somewhat turned into a PRS Fanboy but as you said, @NeilES335, every time I play the guitar in my profile I go " thats a great guitar".

A lot of people don't realize that when the Memphis division of Gibson came out with these, the "ES" stood for "Electric Spanish" and the "335" or "325" or "345", etc. was the manufacturer's suggested retail of the guitar.
