      LOL. I cant recall seeing anything but "mouse ears" on the Epi's. But I haven't paid all that much attention.

        Is that referring to the cutaways? Don’t all 335s look like that?

          I've found'em to have a arguably "better" tonefootprint than their older, oddly-shaped ear counterparts.

          It's stated that all Sheratons come with laminated necks, but I've serviced quite a few with one-piece maple necks, so that's another thing to look for that's preferable when buying a second-hand Sherry to mod.

            Now I see the mouse ears compared to the pointier horns. I thought they all were the same.

            I want whatever this is (or the modern equivalent with humbuckers)

              That's a Sheraton. I've actually played one from '59 a few years ago at Dave's Guitar Shop in WI.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                I can see the pics now too JB. That's a sharp looking guitar for sure and a very nice top to boot. Very nice score. I too prefer the looks of the mouse ears.

                  I'm pretty sure the whole 'mouse ears' thing was in reference to Gibby 335's. I believe the early 335's had the rounder 'mouse ear' cutaways and that later versions, while still rounded, were slightly pointier.

                    That is one sharp looking guitar with the gold hardware and the top is gorgeous...tobacco burst! It looks very classy indeed...something you could play at a black tie affair or something...maybe a wedding?
