Members solly Posted April 11, 2012 Members Share Posted April 11, 2012 Heres something a little different from Gibson, the 335-S reissue. All maple body, maple neck with Granadillo fretboard. Obviously brighter than a Les Paul but not ice pick bright, very nice clean and with overdrive. I dont know who gets the credit either Sweetwater or Gibson but this was the best setup guitar out of the box ive ever had. Nice low action, no buzzing, just needed a slight pickup height adjustment. The Burstbuckers sound great. Build and finish are great, it some some really nice flame on the back of the neck and i think the plain top looks fantastic. PICS!!

Members Texas Noise Factory Posted April 11, 2012 Members Share Posted April 11, 2012 Nice guitar Solly! I keep meaning to post that I got one of these recently. I went ahead and bought an original one in Silverburst though. I found one at a good price and had always wanted one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BG76 Posted April 12, 2012 Members Share Posted April 12, 2012 Cool! IMHO Granadillo is a great fretboard material, even when compared with Indian rosewood. You have got to give Henry J props for producing American made guitars at all price points without moving offshore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It surprises me that places dont use better "stock" photos, it might help sell more guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members scott944 Posted April 14, 2012 Members Share Posted April 14, 2012 thanks guys! The Granadillo board is very nice. Makes sense, as it is the tonewood of choice for clarinet and oboe makers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
