See site features Gibson, mine in 1998.
Some smaller defects finish, not too normal on a Gibson Custom Shop, but it is unfortunately common. Well, I quibble a bit because it's really minor, but it's still a Custom Shop!

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, it's a chouille about the same as my Les Paul Custom.
Access is easy to acute and ergonomics of the guitar is good. The micro switch is next to portada volume / tone, as on a Start. Personally, I am not using the switch is actually a filter. I use the microphones as they are, without filtering. The weight is very correct, nothing to do with a Les Paul, for example.

When the sound is not complicated, and you plug you play. In his clear, you can do jazz, crunch, it's perfect for Blues and saturated, incredible, I play without problem of Led Zep. Of course, the rock sound is less punchy than the LP Custom, but it's pretty convincing anyway.

SOUNDS

As written above, I play a bit of everything, especially Blues and Rock and it is perfect. For the Blues, and it is perfect for rock is good too
I play with a Mesa Boogie F30 lamps. Its clear -> clear channel and gain to 11.00, its crunch -> clean channel and gain at 14:00, his Led Zep -> overdrive channel and gain to 11.00.
I love the crunch sound of this guitar is terrible
On a Blues Junior, it's great.

OVERALL OPINION

I have this guitar for 2 years and I find this guitar very versatile, especially lighter than my LP Custom.
I love the sound of this guitar, perfect in its register Blues.
I do it again this election without flinching. I advise everyone to try the blues one day this guitar is a better choice different from 335.
