Raging GAS for a 335/3x5

TimmyO

Not sure where it has come from (possibly that BB documentary I watched a few weeks ago haha) but I have ridiculous GAS for a good-looking 335/345 etc 

I'm playing very little currently so no idea why - but by golly it's there. 

Show me your (preferably bound neck) Gibson semis!

Got my Lucille upstairs as well, but no pic yet!

Lucille (the house looks as if it's falling down)...

I bought this one from Mark at @guitars4you about two and a half years ago, and it's the longest serving guitar in the stable. I think that being a huge fan of BB helps!

I had a similar need for a Gibson semi so I bought the blonde 335 in August and the 355 last week.
Both are great but I still want to add a Rich Robinson 335 at some point.

Lovely, that - I'd like another cherry Dot again. It's one of the few guitars that I've regretted selling.

Blonde, Dot, 1960 reissue.

Took a bit of setting up, now plays like a dream.

This week, I are mostly gassin' for...

...a three-three-foive.

Can you rent one for a few days and get it out of your system?

A 335 is the only Gibson I've ever been tempted with...

I'm hoping it'll pass if I feed it attention - read about em, look at em etc lol

I had a cheery red 345 too which I often wish I’d kept.

My 2015 ES-345 '64 Reissue.

Waited a long time to get one of these but eventually took the plunge when Peach were selling them at a decent discount a couple of years ago. Have always loved the 345/355 cosmetics. Even quite like the varitone for the odd bit of skronky fun. Probably needs a Bigsby but I quite like the weight of it as is (8lb-ish) and don't want to add any extra bulk.

Very nice. Nice Heistercamp too

Ooops.

I appear to be going to look at a 335 on Saturday...
