One has far more character but you'd probably not use it on a day to day basis
i love it...tough getting inside it to fix the pickups though!
I still wish I'd kept the '59 President I had in about 1986/87 - someone had badly fitted a pair of DiMarzio humbuckers! But when fixed with something a bit more appropriate it was a really nice guitar. These days the tree-trunk neck would probably be highly fashionable too, although it wasn't at the time...

neck and body join still totally fine
What do you think they go for these days?
Removing the pickups for repair should be easy by the way - if you undo the control panel the wires are soldered on there, just make sure you note which goes where, and preferably tie a piece of cotton to each one so you can pull the wires back trough easily once they've been repaired. WAY easier than a Gibson 335...
