  1. hey i just pulled the trigger on a 2008 advanced jumbo- waiting for it to arrive. ... anyone with experience with AJ's care to comment?
  2. I have a es 333 that i absolutely love... provides me with everything i hoped to get in a semi hollow body guitar.I purchased a 80's MIJ epiphone sheraton but i got rid of it to fund the 333. the sheraton was a beauty but needed to be refretted. In my opinion the gibson es333 is far superior to the epiphone- better sustain, much more warmth in the tone and way more "ballsy" when cranked up. I purchased the es333 as a mint but used guitar with a antique cherry finish. I added nickel pup covers, a pickgaurd and top hat knobs,,, she looks sweet and i am imagining she will age nicely. hopefully she gets those cool check marks over time but m I would have loved to purchase a 335 but i couldnt justify the price given my modest abilities. I still am gassing for a 335 but i believe i am being seduced by the glossy polished finish and the fancier headstock. If I think past the glitz factor i know i got everything i need in the es 333. just curious how swapping out the pups for classic 57's will change the tone of the guitar. i assume it will sweeting and maybe mellow out the tone abit.. if this is the case i will consider a swap later on
  3. picked up an old sheraton yesterday... serial # 5033129 was told its a japanese sheraton from the 80's any help on confirming this would be great... rectangle paper label on inside is tan with brown splotchs stating kalamazoo..... old style head stock font with backwards 3 -E in epiphone... two screw hole truss rod cover.. any help would be great
