[FrankAxtell]

Here's a short minor blues funk jam using my new Gibson ES 335 Dot Reissue thru my old 50 watt Marshall half stack.

The guitar sounds great! The all in all sound is absolutely convincing.
By the way, I like your phrasing - it leaves room.

Very good.

[Lev]

really smooth sound and phrasing, did you mic the marshall? What did you use to record?

[aeolian]

Frank, may be you had a little Larry Carleton in mind? Terrific, as usual.

Thats real nice Frank. How do like that 335 I just got the same one a few weeks ago my first 335, one sweet instrument.

[jpfeifer]

Frank,

I just had a chance to listen to this track.
Man, this is great! I love the sound of a 335 (I want one). Your playing is fantastic on the tune. Nice phrasing, and the tone is great as usual.

Thank you very much, yeah this new ES 335 is sooooo nice. :D
I looked around for over a year trying out ES 335's at different stores until I found this one, plus the price was great for a new axe. I got it at a place called Legends
Guitars in Tampa FL .The high end guitars at Legends are awesome along with really friendly well informed staff.

OOps! I should'a looked at your sig. But now I get to see the color! Thanks Warren. How do you like the Bigsby?

[warren0728]

the bigsby is pretty cool...i don't really use a tremelo much but the bigsby is pretty smooth. I really like the look of the bigsby and it seems to stay in tune ok too.

I got a REALLY good deal on the guitar at the labor day sale at Guitar Center :eek: (an offer i couldn't refuse)....so i had to bring it home :D

Uhhmm, to get back to the topic of the recording - Frank, I can't load the file, did you remove it?

[duhvoodooman]

Frank, I can't load the file, did you remove it?
The link in the first post is bad. The functional one is HERE (http://www.thefret.net/showpost.php?p=14041&postcount=7).

Sweet tone, Frank! I would never have guessed that was a 335. Nice job.

[sunvalleylaw]

Frank, I just found this one, which I really like! I enjoy hearing the different ways a 335 can sound. Thanks!

[Steffe1973]

Holy smoke:rockon: , that was awesome!! I REALLY :rotflmao: liked your phrasing,
thats very skillful of you.:bravo: Nice tone and great bends!!!
All the way amazing playing!

[just strum]

Very nice Frank. It sounds great and heightens my desire for an ES335 - oh, and playing as good as you would certainly help.

Practice, practice, practice.

Nice playing Frank. I would never have thought that was an E335 either. :D
