Why do I no longer own one? Must get one.

p.s. Love the Valensi model:
I've always loved that Riviera tailpiece. Unique.

Really? In what way? I'm interested.
I always thought stuff like the ES-335 and ES-330 kinda guitars were the same body shape except for the pickup difference (humbucker vs. P-90s).
I owned a Korean Casino for a long time... played the shit out of it until it fell apart. I'd really like to get a John Lennon Inspired model, the natural one. Not worth it for $1,000, but a friend can get me a substantial discount.
I forgot you're an Epi phan!

Casinos and 330s are full hollowbodies. 335s and Dots are semi-hollows.

Casino's "horn" always look different to me
the newer ones anyway...
I think...
yeah a 330 and a 335 are the same, I've played both. I'm not really a Epi phan
very much.. but things have been everywhere so you always see them...

I always loved the Sheraton. I'd love to have one, but I play guitar so rarely nowadays.
I'm just going to make due with my dot.
