Members stormin1155 Posted June 23, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 Mmm, what's the big jazz box with the massive neck? The jazz box is a 1969 Byrdland. And the picture must be decieving, because it really doesn't have a massive neck, in fact is a short scale (24") and narrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ΨWindingΨ Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 ... man, I wish Gibson would pay more attention to details. That long tenon joint is a joke. *scratches head* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members docjeffrey Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 Nice collection of Gibsons you have! I love my 335 (it's an '04). Took three years to break it in. It sounded like a solid body when I first bought it, but it's loosened up considerably since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, Doc, that might be the most direct I've ever heard it expressed that a semi-hollow most definitely breaks in/ opens up - that you can really discern a difference... Oh, and great guitar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and great guitar too. Funny thing is, I bought one of those little ES339's and it sounded like a semi right off the bat. It was NOS--2 years old--when I got it though.

Members goosefartfan Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 beautiful guitars. we unfortunately share the same taste in guitars. thanks for the jealousy:cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Prages Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 I don't think the question is whether the bridge is backward or not. The questionable part is that all the saddles are lined up in a straight line and all the way forward. I've NEVER seen a guitar that is intonated correctly with the saddles lined up like that.

Members goosefartfan Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 oddly enough, I have a TOM bridge git and all are all the way to the back (away from the frets)except for the low E and A saddles (they're about 1/8" away from the back) when intonated:blah: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members goosefartfan Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 oh yeah, the ramp side of the saddle should be facing the stop bar. people only change it around when they need a bit more room to adjust the intonation. And yes, it's easier to get a screwdriver in when the screws face the pu's Now let the TONE gods strike me........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vcnyls Posted June 23, 2010 Members Share Posted June 23, 2010 Sweet! I have the same guitar (but mine's a 2005 or 2006). Fantastic instrument! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
