Once you buy a nice Les Paul it takes the GAS out of you.

Big semi hollow jazz box?

I went for the semihollow LP sized alternative

Is still want a 335
But I probably wont get it any time soon

Actually the country gentleman model (if you’re talking to me) is the same thickness as a 335 and even has the centre block.

It’s basically like a single cut 335.

Here is one that belonged to Billy Duffy from the cult. Him and The cure are what sold me on the model.

After that I discovered videos of Chet Atkins playing it and the tone he got out of it blew my mind. It kind of got cemented into my brain as the semi hollow Gibson id play in old age.

Your great sacrifice has been duly noted.

Hopefully no children starved due to the trials of this great quest, but if you lost a few girlfriends and pissed off a few friends,.. well such is life -as one day children somewhere in the world will sing songs around a campfire about the great Gibson guitar quest of Astro Zombie -and then they will hopefully do a nice Astro Zombie cover around the campfire too -or at least Bullet or Hollywood Babylon.

Shoes strings are being fed ex'd ASAP.

-much respect

I love that CG
I thought Chet played a Gretsch country gentleman

I never heard of the Gibson version

Now I too must have one

Chet switched to Gibson around the 1990’s. They made a semi-hollow to Chet’s specs, still named Country Gentleman, but very little in common with the Gretsch model of the same name.

Seems my quest is over, or is it ... ?

Beautiful guitar. Now you need a 90s wine red one and a Triple Rec.

If a Mesa fries your rectum, you're not using it for it's intended function, but I won't judge.
