NGD - Gibson RR ES-335

Post by Dano_NZ »

Couldn't resist it in the end. Rich Robinson ES-335. Had to sell a few of course to get this in. How's it sound? Brighter than other 335's that I've tried (which I like but I'm no expert), plays super well and I'm a sucker for Cherry Red and a Bigsby. Thanks to the lads at the AKL/WLG RS.

Pretty cool man. I saw it up at the K Rd Rockshop in all its glory. Play it hard! There are some other mint high end Gibson’s and Fenders there from a private collection.

That guy's collection must have been insane (most likely still is). Scored a 2005 SG Junior Batwing as well from the same collection. The P-90 screams. Love the looks of the silver relic Tele but I don't have any other guitars to offload.

I met the dude- he bought my old bandmaster. Nice chap- makes Molly look like a rank amateur. Well... any of us gear whores really.
