  1. I have also never liked Hotel California, but I like Peaceful Easy Feeling, and love Take It Easy. Jackson Browne's writing voice is definitely present in Take It Easy, maybe that is why it has always been one of my favorites.
  2. I just sold my '14 J35 and will be buying a J35 Fuller's next week. My 2014 was very much up to the Gibson standards in tone and workmanship. I only sold it to get to a larger profile neck with a wider nut width. My preferred string set on this slope shoulder was Martin Monel light gauge. I also liked DR Rare Bluegrass 12-56, especially after they were old and going dead and starting to get thumpy.
  3. I like Monel lights on my '14 J35. It is strung with EJ19 Bluegrass strings right now, and they really bring out the low end. I have owned a J45, J45TV, AJ, and J15. The J35 is the best of the short scales. Pulling the pickup out and installing a new bone saddle made a big difference in tone in both my J15 and J35. I just wish the J35 had wider nut, and subsequent string spacing. I will be selling it soon in the hope of finding a Fuller's J35 or J35 Collector's Edition.
