HB-35 CH Vintage Series : Well balanced 335 type guitar

5 years ago

I have owned two Gibson 335 guitars one a Red dot like this and the other a natural finish.

This is lighter and easier to play. The pickups and hardware are not top quality as you would expect at this price but the body is not so cumbersome as a 335 and I find it easier to play.

My only major criticism is the position of the toggle switch. It is in the same place as a Les Paul but without the access plate. So if you have issues with its alignment or want to replace it its a real faff. Why not put it on the lower bout?

Still, all said and done its a good guitar for many musical styles and like all HB guitars I have owned excellent value.
