Johnny D from Delaware
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
It's a Gibson, the real deal, and I have never had any issues with their quality or dependability.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
If it holds up like my other Gibson's (no reason why it shouldn't)it will out live me !!!
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
Very well made, no issues, perfect out of the box.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
I'm usually partial to chunky "59" profile necks, but this neck is very comfortable. The controls are basic, but what else do you need?
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
The pickups sound great, love the overtones I get. I'm sure once she breaks in, the tone will only enhance. But for a new born 335, she sounds awsome.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Love the satin finish (Cherry)it feels comfortable, not sticky. The binding on the neck is perfect too. It's a sweet looking guitar.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
Action was great, not to high and not to low....
