Re: Hollow Body and Semi Hollow Body contest

Heres my relatively new 335. It's an 06' and I have installed some of Kevin's Lord of the Blues pickups, 500K vol pots and PIO caps, it is possibly the best single guitar I have heard, I love the tone. I will detail that in another thread, here are pics. and yeah, I chose to remove the pickguard, looked better with the double cremes.

Re: Hollow Body and Semi Hollow Body contest

Guitar: Gibson 1997 ES-135 rescued for a pittance from Craigs List from a guy who beat it up, stripped it improperly, and left it for dead. Refinished with Reranch Fender neck amber tint, and a thin coat of tinted nitro gloss. Aged the whole guitar, including the binding (which was previously bright white). The refin was intentionally done haphazard to make it look old and kept all the battle scars. This thing looks ancient. Added some GFS P90's.
