myspace.com/jessenoah Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 dont tell me which ever one sounds or plays the best im not in a hurry to buy anything, but i am kinda thinking about it ;) i already have a les paul heritage 80 elite, a studio, a EDS-1275, which gibson should be the next addition to the family
Tim Plains Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Well...do you want another Les Paul? You have two or three of them don't you? You know me, I'll take a Les Paul over any other guitar. If you do want another Les Paul, get a reissue. R6, R8, R9...whatever.
daveinspain Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I went with the Ebony Custom... That was my last purchas and I'm very happy....
KennyF Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 Only because of your current collection, I went with ES-335.
cajunman831 Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 i second the ebony or heritage cherry sunburst custom
lpdeluxe Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I don't like accumulations -- I mean, collections -- I have a rule of owning no more than two of each type of guitar that I play, so I have two resonators, tuned to G and D, two basses, a fretted and a fretless, two flat-tops, and two electrics, a Les Paul and a 335. I had the LP and an Epi Sheraton II with Seymour Duncans, so when I got the 335 the Epiphone went on the block. Besides, everyone ought to have a 335. And variety is the spice of life.
Wild_Rose Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I went with the Ebony Custom... That was my last purchas and I'm very happy.... and how could you not be?
SRV-Zeppelin Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 I couldn't decide. If you play any blues AT ALL (or even Classic Rock, for that matter) forget Gibson for one guitar and get a Strat. Gibson is awesome, but won't give you the sounds that a Strat or Tele. as for the selection you've provided, I'd say either an ES-335 or a Firebird... if you're looking to expand your sound, that is. If you want another guitar just for the sake of owning another guitar, get an anniversary R9. (Customs are cool too, but I've never liked the block inlays. Although they are sweet guitars.) Good luck in your purchase!
myspace.com/jessenoah Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 my fenders i had a vintage MIA reissue strat, couldnt play the thing @ all, and i didnt care for the sound, and it was a nice a strat as there is damn it looked good
Old Deadhead Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 I personally like the semi-hollows. They'll give you a differnt tone than the Pauls and SG's.
djroge1 Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 buy something you don't already have - that's why I think you should get the 335.
paulsmulebarn Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Telecaster FTW! Long-time tele fan, here... but since you asked about gibbo's I guess I'd vote 335. In black.
AXE® Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Or....... You could grow a set and make up your own mind .... HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
surfpup Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Or.......You could grow a set and make up your own mind ....HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Plek'd!
myspace.com/jessenoah Posted October 11, 2008 Author Posted October 11, 2008 the last time i had the balls to think for myself, i got me banned im planning on making a GC trip to see what i see but im not really GASsing for anything yet
:oilpit: Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Plek'd! haha I totally forgot that I started that. but im not really GASsing for anything yet I have GASSed for 2 guitars in a matter of 12 hours. Today my guitar teacher brought his black beauty over, so I got pretty obsessed with them. Then I stumbled upon a few 335s and now I want one of them. So many choices.
retrosurfer1959 Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Everbody needs a 335 or maybe a 339 or hell one of each
pippy Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 Don't know if you already have a Firebird but, if not, as you like Fenders you'd probably really like one.
Silverbursted Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 R7, R8, or R9. I did not see the Traditional on your list, but I would not buy a Gibson without at least playing one or two.
myspace.com/jessenoah Posted October 13, 2008 Author Posted October 13, 2008 i was thinking a 70s or 80s custom among the others
:oilpit: Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 i was thinking a 70s or 80s customamong the others That's gonna be my next Les Paul. Bizzarre (spelling?) guitars had them for 3 grand. cheaper than a new custom from GC.
myspace.com/jessenoah Posted October 13, 2008 Author Posted October 13, 2008 i love thoose norlin era pauls the perfect neck size, low frets............... i love em
