The guitar has the right quality sound for the bluesy music I play. It has a nice mellow sound, and is not to too bright.

The finish on this guitar is outstanding. All detail work was done well except the fret ends. The were not properly dressed, or polished. Looks like I will have to do that myself, (major disapointment). The guitar has a nice slim neck, which I seem to be getting used to.

Purchased the guitar off of EBAY, and it did come with a one year warranty.
Overall Rating

I have been at the guitar for some 30 odd years. I like the weight of the guitar, as it weighs about 3lbs less then my last semi hollow. I was also looking for a slimer neck. Not an ES335 by any means, but would fit the bill for regular gigging.
