Re: Wildwood guitars has gloss top CS GOld top JB for sale

I'd like to know how many 335's were made. I am aware of the 50 so that GC put out, but I have seen many other sites with them listed. I can understand that a GC affiliate like MF selling them, but what about Amazon (through Music123, who I think is another GC affiliate)? I'm sure when Joe has all of the info he'll pass it along.

Also, the Music Zoo has 6 JB LP's that say it's limited to 400, but have the regular Gibson serial numbers. No mention of CoA's, just a mail in for sunglasses and discography.

I hope I can have the funds available the next time the guitar is available. Especially at that price.

Well...I'm one of the lucky guys that bought a Wildwood one. Number JBG005 to be precise. I spoke to Edwin Wilson and Thom Fowle and they insured me the Wildwood rum is limited to 25 pieces. On youtube you can see many examples played by Greg Koch...but never higher than serialnumber JBG025...so I guess Edwin and Thom are telling the thruth here!

Anyway...I don't care how many they build as long they are first class guitars and true to Joe's specs!

Congrat's ! Use it in good health. I have my JB Studio in my lap right now!. Absolutely one of my favorites to play. I'm going to lessons later and bringing my Epi JB. LOL. P.S. I just checked e-bay. There are  4  new released (latest edition) Gold tops available.
