Wasn't looking for a guitar just some them 1000 dollar pick ups. This guitar on the site doesnt come up easy. Its buried deep in the ES section.

If you look now it was the last one :)

Calibrated T-Type humbucking pups. Haven't heard these yet but we shall see.

No one had or has these as its Gibson Exclusive which I'm assuming only Gibson has them.

Thats fine with me just hope Gibson is better at packing guitars than Fender is out of the factory.

If it comes with broken neck Ill post pics of that too :)

they made some in 2013 I have seen. Are all gold front and back with creme plastics..(?) Most of the other goldtop 335's I have come across are either custom shop M2M or refins. Cherry is the choise for a refin also it would seem. If it had been any other color....I have been able to resist everything not goldtop. It makes life easy...

the black plastic and the dark back make it very unique. it will fit nicely next to his Les Paul friend :)

A few fenders from factory and no breaks or damaged boxes, who delivered yours?

Enjoy the new 335!

UPS has the package. I forgot it was a holiday weekend. I hope it dont sit in a hot truck somewhere. If it does it might set me back from opening it up. That will last about 15 minutes :)

Flawless built guitar the black is one of the darkest I have seen and I love it. Th gold deep and well done on flaws I can find. I know all the good spots to look for thanks to MLP. Sounds incredible. Picked off a crappy little Bad Cat Cougar amp just for it. I hope this is the strings left my fingers like this. It doesn't wash off so easy. The neck is a little dry so we oil it down and clean the strings off. I really like the strings on it I need to see what Gibson used on it. Had to take the night off to sign for it UPS was late. Thanks UPS for keeping me home from work. That worked out for everyone. Little bit at the job got some OT sitting around and I get to sit home play my new guitars. :)

what color you say? Gibson says dark back. I could have sworn it was just plain old ebony. Not so.
