NiceGuyEddie Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Hi....any ideas if the body dimensions on memphis es 335 1960 vos, would be the same as a similar memphis 59 es 335?? Looking at 2009,2010 manufacture dates. Are the necks noticeably different from each other? i see they describe the 60 as a slim taper. Any differences with the nashville's dimensions?

skilsaw Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Pretty specific questions about two specific guitars. I'd be surprised if anyone has the answer. Why do you ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I don't know but the Memphis 59-335 neck has a 59 profile. Historic's are all Nashville-made, the Memphis Custom Shop Reissues have a USA production line serial, where Historic's don't. The neck profiles between a 60 and 59 differ. The 60s between Nashville and Memphis not really imho, but to slight degrees, which may be simply preference in feel. I have a Nashville and Memphis 60 and they are pretty much the same though the Nashville feels slightly flatter on the back. Just off the top of my head. I imagine someone will further clarify.

NiceGuyEddie Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 I have an oppurtunity to get an es 335 '60 vos, but i dont want to committ if its noticeably different in body dimensions and neck profile. I know the historics have a more accurate body than say a Memphis, non historic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle mud Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I believe that the body dimensions will be the same on either guitar. The necks of course are different between a '60 and a '59 reissues. I have had both and prefer the thinner '60's neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
