Fun Fact: The heat press machine that Gibson uses to bend and form the wood to make the sides of the ES 335 body, (half the body) can do a piece of wood wide enough that once it's formed they can take it over to the band saw and get 4 sides, enough to make 2 guitars. That heat press machine is the SAME one that Gibson has used ever since the ES 335 first started being made in the 1950's!! So while they are now being made in Tennessee, it's still the same machine that they used in Memphis AND in Kalamazoo!! I do not like that color choice but for some reason I wouldn't mind having one lol. I don't know anything about Cornell other than he is 1 of the 6 original grunge lead singers of which only 1 of them is still alive, Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam. I remember back in the early 90's when other rockers would talk about grunge and they couldn't understand why people wanted to listen to such depressing music and one guy actually said he won't be surprised at all when he hears that one of those guys ended up committing suicide because if the music was any indication as to their mental health condition, it's just a matter of time before one of them does it. Then about 2 weeks later Kurt Cobain killed himself! I like the clear knobs but since I am constantly playing with my volume and tone knobs when I am playing I hate not having numbers on the knob. I have a guitar that uses those knurled knobs without numbers and it's annoying!!

The finish droplets around the head stock is caused by 1 of 3 things. The person who sprayed it was standing to far from the guitar and the aerosol dried a little before hitting the surface (common) or the person didn't clean the head of their spray gun (also common). And finally not cleaning the surface (common as well). If I had to guess I would say someone got lazy cleaning the nozzle of the spray gun since it is localized to one area. As for the tearing on the inside you said was common to see, it happens because as they cut sideways they are cutting across the grain, if you do it too fast then that is the result. They just need to slow down the machine that cuts the pickup pockets and stop trying to do it in one pass. Tear out with a router bit is pretty common and a lot of people have issues when they first use a router. I made a cord for mine that has a dimmer that acts as a voltage increase to control how fast it spins, most modern routers have that feature but mine is a router from the 1950's and is why mine didn't have it. Cool guitar, I like the color, gives it an old Army motorcycle look. It just screams military with that color.

Trogly, do you dislike the Bigsby's mainly because of the "tuning issues" you've encountered or is it more than that? If so there are a number of things you can do to improve the tuning stability. Overlooked most of the time is the spring. Once the spring is broken in, you'd notice a HUGE difference, when they're new they suck!! Does take time and lots of playing. Try taking out the spring put it on a solid flat cement floor, stand it up and with solid sole shoes step on it with your heel, repeat a few hundred times. Then do it again a few days later, repeat once more and ya should be good. Once broken in the spring keeps its memory and tuning is much improved. Personally I prefer the 1 1/4 inch spring, has a bit more travel and is a bit stiffer. Find it keeps the best tuning and when you're not using the Bigsby swing the arm back so it lines up with the rear strap button. This will have the arm resting on the main frame of the Bigsby, essentially locking it in place and tuning will stay perfect when in that position. Know you've said many times you're not a fan of the Bigsby. Still, if you're keeping this guitar, play around with it, practice, it is another tool that can create some great tones and makes you a better player. Cheers, thanks for another great Video.

In ‘A Star is Born’ Bradley Cooper’s character also plays an olive drab ES, and I won’t spoil the movie but it is a tragically apt choice.

True but the newer models were more expensive to start with. I think in 2013 it was just under 2400 GBP for the green one. The 2019 version I saw was quite a bit more (don‘t remember the exact price).

So Trogly used the phrase “scalper’s market,” referring to the fact the people scooped them up to resell. But shouldn’t the use of the word scalper be applied to anyone who buys anything with the intention of selling it down it down the road for profit, whether it’s a new signature model, or some twenty year old guitar from Reverb?

I believe that the Alvin Lee reissue was the "Festival" model. It has a Bigsby B7 and does not have the Fender Blender volume control. The original Alvin Lee had a TP6.

I think these are heat and I’m about as big a Cornell fan as they come. But nothing will ever come close to the pre Fender Gretsch Duo jet’s he kept. Black hole Sun, fell on black days, both recorded on the black Gretsch through a Marshall.
