The Shark Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 I've been waiting for "Bigson" to get these right. The color is spot on. That was always the rub. They just didn't look "vintage". And "vintage" is the fade. Gets here on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santellavision Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I love that color! Nice find! I don't like the bright reds either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a '64 years ago, Ernie. It had a really strange neck shape and a headstock repair, so I sold it. But it looked exactly like this one. I can't wait.

hamerican gigolo Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I want a 335 so bad, but can't justify the expense. OP, play it in good health. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubs_42 Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 @The Shark my complaint all along with reds on the reissues is they have been just too dark. Special the 90’s stuff, my SG from 98 is dark and you can barely see the wood grain. That 335 looks fantastic, my it turn out to feel as good as it looks.

santellavision Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 That era has some wacky specs. My '66 had a really thin neck carve and only a 1-5/8 nut! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobB Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 That is nice. I love 335s. They are just too large on my frame. Hard to look rockin’ when all one sees is two little legs sticking out beneath the guitar… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
