    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!
        23. That's the number of people Mr. T has pitied in the time it has taken you to read this sentence.

            "With a rate of fire of over 20 rounds per second, the IMI Micro Uzi is almost as fast as Yngwie Malmsteen, and 25.4 times more musical"

            Worst of all... It's true..

              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?

                    The Tokia looks cooler ... is that a saint symbol on the head? ... killer!
                    Broken down n' dirty dressed in rags ...

                      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)
