Thans Jim! I cant seem to put this guitar down....

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

I'm afraid my #35 was sold to Bluesky in NY.

I've sold a few guitars lately, but this one hurt to see go.

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

Does the neck binding cover the fret edges on the ES335JBs?  That is, are there nibs or no nibs?  I read a Vintage Guitar article that states that there aren't, though mine does have nibs....

Note that my #35 is now being flipped on Ebay.

He had given this song and dance about how he had and missed a prior JB335 and was dying to have another. He intended to flip it all along. That's he perrogative I guess, but question his motives.

If you at all tempted, I wouldn't come close to his asking price. Just saying...

Hey, I'm sitting here waiting for #335 to arrive at my door in Durham England. Feeling very pleased and ever so slightly smug about my lucky number! Hope its a good un!

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

Not this again! Welcome Davydet, hope I'm wrong on this but a number of Chinese counterfeit models were uncovered in the US, all bearing the number '335'. This number was apparently either not included in the run or is owned by the man himself.

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

Hello:-h

Thought I'd like to say Hi! Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place, but whilst looking for info on Gibsons ES335, I found this register of the signature guitar which prompted me to write.

On Sunday just gone, I went for a ride on my bike to a local guitar shop in the UK.. Actually went to look at a used Collings In 35 lc, as for some crazy reason I fancied a play on a hollow body, but .when I got to the shop a guy was sat playing it.. And I thought..hmm quite nice. We chatted for a while and he told me he was going to buy it... Anyway, he said, hey, take a look at the used ES335..it's a signature model and they hold prices pretty well. The Guitar he pointed out turned out to be a used and very lovely Joe Bonamassa signature guitar.

The sales guy said, here, have a go. I can honestly say its possibly the most sweet guitar in every way. Just beautiful!...  I'm not a very good player, but I can tell a great guitar when a pick one up. I could barely put it down!

After a bit of thinking over a couple of nights and the should I shouldn't I dilemma as really need to buy a little car to use over winter.. But really like the gorgeously lovely Es.. And today some reckless spending...  She came home today and now lives with me in the UK. Number 223

I'm so pleased.. And feeling quite lucky to have found such a rare guitar. I'm hoping she will like being played on my Swart AST pro amp. It's been a nice Christmas

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

Re: Joe Bonamassa Signature ES-335 Registry

Just saw Joe's great show at the Hard Rock in S. Florida.  Friend of mine told me Joe does the "pawn shop" guitar search in each town.  I am retiring from playing, but I have the original 66 335 I have had since a kid, and I would like it to go to a real player, not some collector.  This guitar has thousands of miles and thousands of gigs on it, so real players know what I mean.  Anyone interested?

I was fortunate enough to score one in Denver tonight.  I should have it next week.  Looking forward to it, I hear nothing but good things.
