Does anyone have experience with these models? El G

 

I once owned this reissue:

It's great if you want a guitar the size of an L-5 with three pickups. The one I had was really quite nice, but very heavy and I had no particular use for the extra pickup.

I love my 2007, I use the middle pickup as a slightly brighter tone that the neck,so you can switch to it and stand out a touch more, without going to the bridge and getting too treble-y.

 

I also like some of the three pickup sounds for mellow choer-melody stuff, you can get some unusual tones. There is lots of knobs to play with.....

Got the old version with no switch!

Great guitar with a big sound, love it!

Use it a lot in my rockabillygigs. The middle pickup rarley get used though.

The neck and bridge together is magic!

I put a bigsby on it too.
