    A 335 is a badass sounding guitar. Play one through a cranked Marshall sometime. They sound better than a Les Paul.
    No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

    Agreed.

    I play slide through an old '85 335 and it just fucking melts!

    I'd rather have the John Sykes Custom...
    Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

    Of course, there's the Tokai-variant...



    Wrong color hardware, unfortunately, but that's near simple to fix, right?

    Looks more like a fleur-de-lis... Luckily, these suckers are also made as southpaws. At a reasonable price, too. (Some 600$...)

    Ooh yeah. Slap some Gibson p'ups in one, and you're set.
    (Got a 500T "Super Ceramic" in my own Tokai... Although, mine looks a bit like the Jimmy Page signature)

    The Big O !

    Nice looking geetar..

    That dude was inspirational, not just from a musician's
    viewpoint, but from what he rose from, in his personal
    life..

    Those knowing his history will know what I mean..
    Like a Phoenix literally flying out of the ashes...
