Been on a lifelong semi quest (going on nearly 30 years now).
It's driven by the sound of in my head that is closer to an arch top than a 335. That land in the middle.
Sustain and feedback resistance of a great 335 - but more acoustic zing ala an L-5
make sense?
Currently I have a few that are all variations on this goal and each is a wonderful instrument. Each also has a unique take on the center block.
I'm always open to input from the brain trust here at TGP. I'll post my 2 cents if anyone is interested.
Here is a pic of the current roster (my '68 335, that I've had since I was a kid, is not in the pic)
from right to left -
'63 50th anniversery reissue, CP Thornton Improv, Sadowsky Semi, Ribbecke, Suhr archtop semi.
