Gibson ES 335 Dot

manufactured 1983

Played by B. B. King, John Lee Hooker, Clapton (Cream era)

I don't play this one very often, it tends to ring forever and you have to play it with a really light touch. Having said that it has a very nice sound. Bought this in Orlando Florida when I was there studying sound engineering. When I told they guy running the course about it he asked me how much I got discounted. He looked horrified when I told him I paid the price tag amount. He told me 'never pay what the advertised price is for a guitar'. Good advice that I have tried to stick with.
