I would also like to see a photo of the 1969 355. Until then I will send a fresh photo of my 2010 1960 50th anniversary from Memphis as a consolation. My absolute favorite guitar which I play most of all. Nitro lacquer, pickups without wax, slim neck, very light for a 335 and absolutely balanced in weight. I love her. The kind of nonsense you come up with sitting around the house...

I wanted a VOS (vintage original specification) with a matt finish. Here in Germany there were only high gloss lacquer versions. I had no chance to get this guitar at the dealers. They didn't bother and they wanted to sell what they had in stock. But there is a very good shop in London. They made a phone call to Gibson and I got one of the very last ones with matt lacquer before the series was finished. It was the first guitar I bought without playing it before and I was very lucky, it is that good.
