Guitar of the Day: 1971 Gibson ES-335TDW | Norman's Rare Guitars

[@rba614]

I truly feel the walnut 335 does not get the level of respect it deserves.

[@mcmdrpiffle447]

You understand that this Guitar is a Walnut 'finish' and not actually Walnut wood? It's prolly maple. 'saw the Norm's episode where he brought the guitar in' M

Forgot I was at double speed and I was thinking man he’s playing really good today.

Got a 73 TDW. Refretted with SS Medium Jumbos. It goes wherever I go.

[@thefounding5879]

Lemmo is the coolest! He indulged me to have a professional play my 1905 Washburn on the couch a couple of years back and made it just sing!

[@victormusic01x]

..Gibson fire 🔥!..pure, demo by Lemmo!..he plays it like he knows he’s lucky 🍀 to be playing these little friends..you know it!..put me in a good mood..peace from the east..coast..stay safe and stay strong..New York May 5, 2021..

Awesome video Michael! The Robbin Trower video was so cool! And I grew up with the Allmond Brothers! Awesome! Great video as usual Jen! Thank you, both!

Norm needs to search for some hidden gems in other brands for guitar of the day. Epiphone/ Ibanez have been stepping up their game in 2021.

Lemmo on fire. The descending lick at 6:17 just is too cool.

[@quefour9710]

I love how the reaction of the dog matches the blues flow of the first song. He (dog) looks tired from kick’in azz all day.

[@BuzzcutGtr]

First off, that is one of the coolest dogs on the planet. Second, walnut makes for a nasty, snarl-y, straight-ahead rock 'n roll sound. Third, EVERYTHING sounds good with Lemmo™ behind the pick.

[@70zenboy]

Yeah little bear is gorgeous Isn’t he. Agree 100% lemmo is a monster.

[@christianvance1614]

That jam was amazing.

[@jasonaustin3270]

Es-335 is my favorite guitar. Followed close by an old tele. But many years ago when I was young no one wanted these in this color, wished I'd kept mine.

[@slbolfing56]

Too Rolling Stoned! Killer way to start!!! Awesome guitar

[@jamesmitchell263]

Man he is getting better all the time

[@Al-Madhloom]

Beautiful look for that guitar, I also like the walnut SGs, those are beauties as well 👏🏽 👏🏽 🥂

[@rylieriley]

I've always loved the look of the walnut 335's (I'm sure I'm not the only one). You did that beauty justice with your demo, Lemmo.

[@clive3100]

I once owned a 1970 walnut 335 during the early 90's. Was a great looking guitar and personally really liked the walnut finish. It started a 10 year 335 'journey' and set me on a quest to own two 335's from the so-called classic era. A cherry '60 dot neck and a sunburst '63 which were both more true to the original construction/appointments, etc.,. ... Thinking back in comparing the two, the '60 sounded better, but the '63 was the overall better guitar, (IMO). But I still recall my first used walnut one and this guitar sounds very cool while in Michael Lemmo's hands.

[@michaelreid5912]

ML... brother you and Little Bear gave us ‘One Way Out’ walnut styling... well done!

[@philfrank9226]

Fantasic playing, well done, ah and a nice guitar. Like the tailpeace.

[@noscrubbubblez6515]

Mine is very much like that except for the addition of the tone splitter toggle (1979). I played along with whatever song came on the radio for years with such varied of sounds it made. I preferred into my STRAT although the strat was much more comfortable. I remember when the white binding yellowed and I remember seeing the same walnut at a Guitar Center priced higher than ANY other guitar ($1,699 in 1990?). I gave the strat away but the Gibson is not disposable.

Took with me everywhere I was for 4 years in the Air Force and was the only guitar I had for almost 20 years .. traded it for a new Gibson 83 or 84 LP Gold top with P90's... one of the biggest regrets of my life.. don't have the Gold top anymore either..😣

What about a stereo Gibson?

Got to get me one of those cool T-shirts. Has Alex Lifeson called the shop yet?

[@GuyNarnarian]

The beginning part on the bridge pup sounded like the surf song in Pulp Fiction when Mia and Vincent sit down to eat at that 50's diner. Cool tune even though he played something else. Does Lemmo always nail the looper perfectly? I think I saw an edit there for the first time ever.

[@Marceloriighiii]

Too rolling stoned for that guitar, great playing lemmo, cheers !

[@ajaykumargoel9398]

Hey what's that slow bluesy jam at the beginning called? I've heard Greg Koch play it too, but idk what it is.

[@SamSveistrup]

The guy I was cleaning windows with had a grazy SG Maestro Red Cherry Red and a Princeton Reverb which I found out was 60's and then his basement had like 20 guitars and 8 amps at least big speakers in the ceiling soundsystem wireless bluetooth too at least two of them and to play Jimi I got to try a brandnewish i mean 2000's probably almost, even maybe 2010's rosewood slab board maple neck beautiful strat classic burst to sunset orange from dark which is what my Fender T-Bucket is my great acoustic so I'm debating a olympic white strat and that type because my Les Paul is black but Jimi's my favorite guitarist and I've never had a white guitar I don't think.

[@SamSveistrup]

This playing is incredible sorry I didn't catch it before my curfew so I could play along
