      Dream job? I dunno. For every blissful 15 minute video they make, they probably have 10 hours of people like me coming into the shop, with champagne tastes but only beer money, and we don’t play like Lemmo.

    Whenever I see a blond 335 I remember how I foolishly didn't buy one in Montreal in the early 70's. The guy I knew in the music store was trying to persuade me to buy it for $500. It must have been a 59 or 60. The color was a bit faded and it had rusty strings. So I brought in my 59 330 to compare.
    Mine looked better and sounded better, but I didn't know to change the strings, and the difference between a 330 and a 335. The only consolation is that I still have the beautiful 59 330, and I bought a blonde flame maple 335 which is great. It's all good. Live and learn, and don't cry Iverson spilled milk, and be happy with what you have and not what you could have had.
    Thanks Lemmo, Jen , and Norm.
    BTW can someone please buy this guitar for me? I would really be thankful.

    I had to move the bridge on my 2006 Gibson ES-335 White Diamond Custom Shop guitar to make it play in tune. And that wasn't the only issue! We had to go through a couple of bridges before we finally stopped the high and low E strings from slipping off the fingerboard! Eventually my guitar tech had to re-fret the guitar . . That was the only way to stop the strings from slipping off while playing! And I used 11s all through my long professional career, and also from years before as a semi-pro guitarist. For strings of that thickness and tension to keep slipping off the neck, you knew there was a serious problem.
    I bought the first White Diamond guitar in Australia and was probably the second-highest profile guitarist in the world who had one. The guitarist in The Scissor Sisters also played one on the video for their only hit in this country at least. That guitar was perfect in every way. But the second one had remained unsold for two years, and the Gibson distributor wanted it gone, and so Gibson offered it to me for three grand, just to get rid of it. It was that guitar which had all those problems.
    Once Matt Bryant, my excellent guitar tech, and I had worked out all the kinks in it, that guitar was practically fool-proof and bulletproof. Trouble was, I have unfeasibly huge hands for a short guy, with short thick fingers coming from a thickly muscled hand, from decades of Powerlifting. The neck was the typical unplayable skinny Gibson neck profile from the 1960s. Totally unsuitable for me, that was for sure! So I sold it for what I'd paid for it. The first one I bought had a lovely thick neck. That model had a mahogany center block, and I don't know if that was solely responsible for the incredible roar the guitar produced through the dirty channel of every Marshall amp I owned, but believe me, I wouldn't have it any other way! I sold that guitar back in 2021 to a guy who could barely play, which was heartbreaking for me, especially since he soon after the sale, invited me to join his band on lead guitar, and I had to watch it being played so badly every band practice . . but I needed the money and he paid cash for it without haggling, so . . . .

    You can see the wiring harness through the bottom f-hole. This is unacceptable (and possibly a sign of further issues). Other than the fact that the guy's a decent player and I am not, the guitar doesn't sound any better than my Epiphone Dot. And you could cut back on the reverb quite a bit.
