Hi all,
I am in the market for a 335. Right now I am looking at the ES-335 Figured and the 1964 ES-335 Reissue. I plan to buy the latest 2021 model.
I assume biggest difference in terms of sound will be caused by the pickups:
Custombucker Alnico III - 1964 ES-335 Reissue
Calibrated T-Type - ES-335 Figured
My questions:
1. I assume the T-Type will be brighter vs. the Custombucker? Is that a big difference? What do you prefer?
2. I already have a Les Paul Modern with Burstbucker Pro. Which 335 will sound and feel most different vs. the Les Paul Modern?
I am trying to get a guitar that will be different vs. my Les Paul Modern. + I like to play blues / rock.
Thanks fo sharing your thoughts!
Best,
Andreas
P.S.: Planning for new gear is just exciting !! ;-)
