Can you still buy the Chris Cornell sig ES-335's ?

[SirJackdeFuzz]

I always thought it will be a very limited run model.

Even Rob Chappers & The Capt (see youtube) said there will only be a few hundred made.

But now i see on Gibson's site that it is still on their site - does that mean you can still get 'em ?

I love that Flat Black model.







But then again, i love this one too :

Gibson stated that there will be 250 in satin black and 250 in satin olive, and they'd better stick to that.
They began in 2012 and all will probably be sold out in early 2014.

I bought one guitar last year.........Chris has 1 and 2. I have #4. :bigok:

Gibson is known to keep stuff on their site for info purposes for a long time after a model is discontinued.

I doubt that the Cornell 335 will see anymore than the original production plans. It's a pretty limited appeal to a lot of players and many of the cats that do want one are young guys that can't afford it. They are still for sale in various places if you want one. If the time comes and you're unable to find one just DIY...335 + Lollartrons + Bigsby and yer there.

I'm in the same boat. I would love to get a 335 but I think my next purchase will be a nice Martin. I played a really nice HD-28 the other day that really got my juices flowing.
