ES-335 DOT Plaintop

This is one fine guitar. It offers the best overall tone quality and sound range for almost any type of music. The fret board is very smooth, action is great, and the neck design is such that if fits the hand beautifully. The bridge construction is the best available in my opinion (pitch adjustment is super easy) and I love the position of the string retainer relative to the bridge. The volume and tone knobs are not knurled so you have to grip them to turn them (not perfect but OK). The position of the pickup switch, however, is perfect. The balance of the guitar is great, no load on the left hand, and the overall finish is tremendous, its like a mirror. It is the finest guitar I have ever owned and I consider it second to none. It is head over heals above my Fender guitars.
