Thanks again for all the helpful suggestions here. I checked out as many of the guitars as I could get my hands on, watched lots of YT reviews etc. and fell in love with the sound, feel and looks of this flamed maple ‘Raspberry Tea’ model… my daughter insists I call it Chuck, since well, Chuck Berry and it arrived in time for Johnny B Goode in BLIM Unit 2.
damn thats a nice looking guitar enjoy!
Very cute
Excellent. Sounds like ya did as good as you could at research. You’ve done the best you could and looks to me like your research paid off well.
That’s a stunning looking guitar. I love that color. I’m kinda down with sunburst. I’m kinda prejuduce though, my Casino is sunburst.
I’ve got two Epiphones (out of 5) and love them both. They play good, they sound good, they look good. Don’t know what else there is. I’d get another one too. They seem to be a great bang for the buck imho.
Congrats. And enjoy your new guitar. A guitar that looks that cool will certainly make you the best player you can be…
Rock On!
That’s a beauty. I’m jealous. If I could justify buying another guitar, it would be a 335 or 339 type.
Chuck played an ES-350T, a single cut, but since that model is no longer available except as a custom-shop order, a 335 is certainly a fine analog!
Thanks Mark! I remember seeing a custom Chuck Berry model years ago, but it was at custom shop prices . This will have to do!
Haha! I hope I play half as well as I look holding it
Happy NGD!!! That is a nice looking guitar. If it plays as well as it looks you’ll be happy for a long time.
What’s the exact model ? (Asking for a friend who does not have already 2 electric guitars )
Epiphone ES-335 Figured, Raspberry Tea Burst ? Epiphone ES-335 Figured | Epiphone
‘friend’
Very nice! Happy NGD!
Congrats That’s a beauty. Does it sound as warm and bluesy as the looks would imply?
Hi Ashu ,
Happy NGD
That is a nice one I wish you a loit of time together
Greetings
Looks awesome! Congrats!
Thanks Nicole! Yes it does. I’ve only ever had Strats before this one, so the difference was very noticeable. I will post a recording at some point…
