Gibson es 330 on the way

[g6120]

Just ordered a new Gibson es 330 L sunburst which should arrive here next wednesday .

Like the fact it has p90 pickups always thought they sounded great but always let them pass me by . Have a Epiphone casino which will sound close but the Gibson has a longer neck a bit more fret access and the neck is fatter as well .

Think after this Im done !

They will sound a bit different as the pickup placement is not exactly the same . The bridge pickup on the es 330 is closer to the neck than the casino which does effect the tone to a certain degree and the neck is a bit larger more of the late 50s vintage while the casinos is much like the 60s vintage . Longer neck will increase playabillity on lower frets .


Anyway those thoughts worked for the wife

I don't think my ears would notice the difference.

I've had discussions on other forums about the selection of guitars. Recently had one guy that was considering spending about $900 on an LP or buying three Agile, all the same guitars, just different finishes.

Since my collection is limited, I try to make sure whatever the current guitars I have, they have variety.

Since this latest gave you enough variety and your wife bought into it (nice one), I guess all is good.

How do those two exist in the same reference?
Everest = challenge
Paris = porcupine
