Have the Bonamassa 335 62 reissue and its one of the nicest guitars I have ever played, pure sweetness. My only complaint is the Indian laurel fret board, be careful using standard fret board conditioner it will harm the finish.
Great playing! You know, I always think of Jerry as one of the prime flatpickers of all time, but really, he could do it all on guitar! Jerry, Chet & Roy; 3 of the best who ever did it!
I just bought a used Epi 339 w/case form GC for $359 and took it straight to my fav looth for a new nut and set up. It will be ready in 2 weeks- VERY EXCITE!!!
Having watched this..... I have ya beat for price... I ordered mine quite a few years ago ...or should say my wife did as a present long before your purchase .. Turned out Sweetwater at the time had 4 available in the Natural finish & that they were actually new to the line having first come into the states apparently in Sept. and mine was also gotten in November. ( early Christmas gift ) Well the price for them in the beginning was $379 if memory serves. As you I purchased a hard shell Epiphone case , with guitar in the case for protection during shipping which my salesman suggested I do rather than ship separately . So in the end....to the lucky side for me. Guitar / Case / music stand/ strap all came to just about what your guitar cost itself. How timing makes a difference. It got me playing again after 30 or so years with some high school friends.....The best guitar in the world.....not doubt it isn't....but as you state.... " Band for the Buck " absolutely Thanks for your video
I've had my Riviera for about a year and a half now. It's stayed just as inspiring as when I first picked it up, if not more. Truly a remarkable instrument, especially at its price point. Also, you should ditch the pickguard. It's more aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion, and I swear I could hear a slight change in tone when I did so, but that was probably just being able to hear the sound projected better through the bottom F hole.
Very interesting! Hopefully the sour notes I hear when I’m playing aren’t really there at all😂😂😂 All joking a side I think your playing is pretty good considering your hearing troubles. Heck, A lot of us hear good and can’t play like that! Love you brother!
I tried a Gibson 339 today. The shop didn't have an Epiphone 339 in stock. Woo Wee what a nice feel. I can't afford it. Is the Epiphone 339 that big of a difference? Thanks!
Absolutely fantastic have a wonderful Easter long weekend also Monday was my friends birthday also my birthday also Sunday is my younger sister birthday ❤😊
