Honeymoon goggles: 335 = worlds finest guitar!

Well, I finally popped for a 335 after wanting one for, oh, 35 years. Played it with my band last night, and am totally blown away by what a fabulous, versatile, great sounding guitar this is. Yes, it's the honeymoon phase, but man, what a guitar. I've got an ES 135 that I love, with the same '57 Classic pickups, but it's just not the same as the 335. It's great, but not quite as great. I've had 3 Les Pauls. Nope, not quite right for me. But this? This thing's a keeper.

Fantastic...I predict you'll like it even more as time passes; that's true in the case of my ES-335.

I agree with your statement that the ES-335 is the best guitar made. It is fun to play and own other guitars, but when it comes down to which guitar to take to a gig, the 335 goes the most. It's my #1 guitar of choice.
Thanks.

I own around 20 electric guitars, Fenders, Gibson, Epiphone, Reverend, but my Gibson 335 Memphis Reissue is my best guitar by far!
