«  GIBSON ES335 CHEAP »

Published on 03/24/13 at 07:52
1992 model made in Korea. Very nice finish. Natural color

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice.
Guitar a little heavy for my taste.

SOUNDS

Those who loves me, blues, smooth jazz, rock 70, then look no further, this is the guitar for you. With some modifications, it will be a great while.
The original pickups are not bad, but they lack a bit of character.
I changed both pickups for a Gibson Classic 57 and the handle 57 + CLASSIC in Chavalet. And there was nothing here to see. It is very very close to a Gibson ES 335.
After this mod, you get everything you can find on a Gibson ES 335 for a much lower cost.
The sound became warmer, more mellow (neck pickup) and more accurate and incisive (bridge pickup). In short it was the sound of a Gibson ES335, and there is the foot.

OVERALL OPINION

I played it for 2 years and since I make that change pickups, I am nirvana. All those who have done the same thing as I understand me.
Even if the purchase and installation of microphones GIBSON is a cost a little higher (about 250 € installation included) the game is worth the candle widely.
