Yeah. The ES-335 is one of those "before-I-die" guitars. I am leaning toward the sunburst or ebony.
BTW, Clapton should have stuck with Gibson.

 The John Mayall/Eric Clapton Bluesbreaker album set a standard for modern blues players and for the Gibson Les Paul played over a Marshall. I also would like to add Peter Green's Les Paul blues sound. BTW, Green's Les Paul is owned and played now by Gary Moore, who, after Cream broke up, toured with Bruce & Baker. Anthony, I believe Clapton's guitar in the picture is a ES355.

The current historic ES355:
Interesting that this is one of the few Gibsons with a first position marker.

mmmmm. I need one, but its gotta be red. After watching a lot of Warren Haynes, I just think a 335 NEEDS to be red.

For blues I prefer the long scale of a Fender ever so slightly, a bit more tension in the notes....or something. Still want a 335 myself, had a few copies in the past. BTW, i'm new around here, what does this "GAS" mean?
