Hi All,

I'm a phone call and a conversation with Mrs. Sws626 away from welcoming this to my modest collection:

I've always loved the sound of the 335 and all the recent bluesy additions to the Target program have tipped me over the edge. This one is a 2009 copy (or re-issue, as they prefer to say) of the 1959 model. I know there are some closet electric guitar players here, so I thought I'd share the news.

Nice guitar, love the color and they sound great. I have a Epiphone copy of that, could not afford the Gibson. Enjoy.

Beautiful guitar, Stuart. Try gifts, wine, and flowers on Mrs.Sws626. :)
I hope you are playing it at home soon.

Stuart:

That is a nice looking guitar. I was window shopping the other day before lessons, and they had the Epiphone copy of that hanging on the wall (in a lefty model no less). Was tempting, but for now I am looking at another acoustic. I already have three electrics.... :woohoo: Can't wait to see and hear it in action.

Cheers!

Jason

Is there any purchase that's more fun than a new guitar? I hope by now it's yours Stuart. Very nice. The 335 is a serious guitar that's for sure.

I am not "into" electric guitar at all. But that doesn't keep me from appreciating a beautiful instrument. Can't wait to hear it. When I first read the thread topic, I thought that perhaps someone had finally purchased a horse for me, and named it Gibson. Good luck getting this beauty. Izzy
