Propane is the most versatile fuel ever made

I’m 51 and virtually invisible to women. That invisibility enabled me to afford a custom shop 61 335 a few months ago. I L O V E it. And the smell is otherworldly.

At £4599 I would want it to be versatile enough to also make some toast.

When Andertons were based in Haydon Place (1975 ish) I was 16 and allowed to play a Gibson 335 in the shop! I have never forgotten that day. I still can not afford one!!!!

6:30 Pete slips in an "authentic" so smooth ahaha! I hope that video's never forgotten.

I know guys who despise Les Paul’s and Gibson’s in general but just about everyone I know who plays loves the 335, myself included. I’ve done everything on it from Gypsy jazzy stuff to high gain metal. They always sound amazing to me!

I still want a 335, but I'm a 330 guy. Those P90s with the hollow body... just love 'em.

Thinkin about getting an ES 335 in cherry, had the Epiphone Dot and loved THAT guitar, so I think getting the Gibson after all these years will be quite the treat. What the hell, we only go around that track of life one time.

6:29 "The aroma is so "authentic" in this room right now." I really don't know how I'd react if I heard someone say that in my home.

Man...Pete always looks like a kid in a candy shop in these videos, bet he's gotta be close to the most happily balanced dude I watch on a semi regular basis, he's happy with where he is and that's a big piece in life, well done fellas...Mr. Anderton, your playing has come far, your an inspiration to the rest of us too-busy types, keep on guys, all the best from over the big water.

My 335 is terrific, it’s a 2009 Gibson Custom 1959 DOT with Factory fitted Bigsby. Found it in a music store in Cape Town, South Africa in 2015. It had been hanging in a corner of the store for years, unloved and priced way below it’s true value. Gorgeous Beast! Thank you Captain and Danish Pete for another fantastic video!

I've got a Strat, Tele, and 335. I love them all but I'd say the most "versatile" is absolutely a Tele. They will just simply do anything and when you plug one into a Vox there is a moment of sheer ecstasy that awaits you every single time. I adore all three of my guitars though.

I randomly impulse bought a 2019 ES-335 in natural a few days ago. I’m honestly shocked. It’s the best guitar I’ve ever played (I own a USA Strat, a Veritas, and a Gretsch White Falcon). This guitar has become my #1 already!

I have a 2018 Memphis-built 335 "figured" in Natural/Dark finish and wouldn't trade it for anything. It is a truly spectacular instrument. Easily the best guitar I've ever owned in my 50 years of playing.

I know this video is 3+ years old, but... you guys are so right. CS guitars are just a different level. All of mine are either CS or vintage. I have 2 CS 335s. A 58 vintage burst and a red 64. Both are amazing and different. Love the. Just picked up a 61 Les Paul. NOTHING LIKE PAFS!!! Love the show, guys... be well.

I got a 1963 ES 345 in 1979 when I was 18 and I still have it. I’ve thought about selling it from time to time but I just can’t. It’s become a part of me. Gibson semi hollows have a unique tone. Very versatile, but maybe not as versatile as a telecaster.

This is just £4599 above my budget. Won't ever have a ES-335. Beautiful guitar, but damn those are expensive (even the "cheaper" ones)

I have only been playing a few years and have tried to find which guitar I like the most. I have a tele, Les Paul, and have tried strats as well. I just recently picked up a Epiphone ES335 and to me it’s the most comfortable guitar I have played. I also like that it’s it so versatile and it can get you just about any sound you want. It has a certain sound while played clean that no other guitars gives you. Some say it’s too big but I’m only 5’7 and it fits me fine.

Just got one this last year and man oh man am I in love with it. Hanging onto my 335 for life!

I just recently bought a '97 Nashville built es3335 standard , after a few tweaks and a new nut , its got whatever I was wishing for in a 335 . i was playing double bass in a band last year and the guitarist had the custom shop 64 es335 . it feels a lot lighter in weight than others I've tried . but every one has that classic slight compression and plunk when you pick a note . in fact they sound so nice clean and loud that putting overdrive on top with a pedal seems like its taking all that lovely clean compression away .

Lee looks so proud when Pete is playing lol! I wonder how many guitars you guys sell because of Pete?

SG Standard can do everything from cool jazz to death metal.

I hate it when they refer to Mick Taylor and they mean Mick Taylor and not Mick Taylor.

What I need in my life is a series of videos containing every Andertons intro song, goosebumps every time.

Duuuude I relate so hard to what Lee said at 18:30. I enjoyed my 335, but once I played a 58 reissue at CME, I could hardly even look at mine anymore. That guitar was alive, the neck just bounced every time you played a chord, it was magical

Alvin Lee made that colour famous! He's one of the most underated players of his era, original player and amazing voice! Help Me (Live at Filmore East) - By Ten Years After I'm Going Home (Live at Woodstock) - By Ten Years After If you want some good ones

I have the CS '61 Sunburst. It's become my absolute go-to. Love it.

Got one...after years and years working and selling middle class guitars and love it so much ! Afraid to play it outside 😁, but awesome sounding guitar !

335 is my weapon of choice and never looked backed.

My vote goes to the ES-345 as the most versatile guitar - because it's an ES-335 with Varitone (yes I know some people hate it but it does give some usable tones) and it's stereo (or mono if you like). Although for me the PRS 513 comes close too for versatility.

I prefer the 339 over the 335 but still great guitars.

Very happy I already own a Memphis made 335 as pretty much everything that came out of that factory was custom shop standard. Bought from Andertons of course🙂.

Josh Smith just posted a vid about the Tele being the most versatile guitar. Tele gang forever 🤘🏻

The guitar sniffing in this video is out of control. .... And I love it

That 59. Oh baby! I'm a fender guy but the tone on these 335's are killer!

The 61's super slim neck definitely shelves off some low end from it's tone, which actually helps it speak more clearly. The tone always follows the neck.

Lovely guitars, i bought a Harley Benton copy, and i was so surprised how good it is, a change of strings, and wow brilliant value for money, better than the Epiphone Dot i tried, maybe i got lucky, but it is such a well built and sounding guitar, you can really rock it out, and then play Jazzy, and bluesy , very versatile

I just took the plunge and bought an 2020 ES 335 in Natural Figured Antique, for my 70th birthday, (from Andertons) on the back of watching this vid and many hours of Jools guitarist Mark Flanagan. It sounds and looks amazing not to mention the lovely smell of nitro when you open the case, I am getting giddy ...

For those of you who find the body of an ES-335 too large, check out the smaller semi-hollow ES-339.

In my opinion the most versatile is an HSS Strat 335 is my favorite because of tone and looks

Shout out to the ‘64. Got mine a year ago, my first semi-hollow. I couldn’t try out all 3 models for various reasons so I had to rely on video reviews that all sounded mediocre thru a tablet. I got the sense that the ‘64 had controllable bite if you need it and still have all the warmth. To my ears, the ‘59 had a bit more of the lower frequencies while the ‘61 sounded brighter. I did notice the nylon saddles on the ‘64 but didn’t give it much thought. I still haven’t personally played the other 2 models but I don’t regret picking the ‘64. The unwieldy (for the slight) body size gives me pause but the tones are worth it. Thankfully the ‘64 neck profile suits me well so it softens this misgiving.

It's been so long since an inspiring guitar music bit part. That intro jam. Gorgeous.

Got a 2013 63 reissue 335! F'ing great guitar! I changed the pickups for OX4s. It plain kills now!

Really do sound so sweet. Sometime, you should do a hollowbody comparison, Gibson, Gretch, PRS, Tele thinline etc. Just to illustrate the differences. The semi's do get under-rated by many.

Marty McFly is the reason I wanted to pick up the guitar ;)

Love the 335 style, and ended up with a Yamaha SA2200; and very very happy.

That family, maybe e.g Steve Howe with the ES Artist, Alex Lifeson with the ES-355, and so on.

I've been playing 335's for decades. They just fit me. I showed up for a session last week sans guitar; I borrowed a Les Paul. No discernible difference.

A '73 335 TDW is my number 1, but I'd still have to say nothing is more versatile than a '72 Tele Custom with the Seth Lover Wide Range Humbucker in the neck.

Took me ages to realise why I loved the red one on the right so much more (besides the colour and block inlays vs dots), it's the horns! I occasionally saw a 335 with the fatter horns and thought how gross they look, I now know I need a 64 335, thanks guys! ;)

I have Suhr Alt T pro semi-holow telecaster type guitar with Thornbucker PUs and I can get the same sounds and even more! Most versatile guitar I played. Sure ES guitars are very beautiful, but too big and too short (scale) at the same time for my taste! Cheers!

I've just bought a '72 tele (absolutely fantastic) and here I am looking up 335's a week later. Help me. These sound amazing but perfectly happy with my choice! Love the discussion in these vids, thanks for making them

Just getting into 335s! Much more versatile than I had ever thought! Bought an Epi Dot 335, in January followed swiftly by 3 more guitars and amp and 5 pedals all from Andertons of course! Lockdown has been expensive!🤪 But oh so worth it!

I owned a custom shop ES 335 Rich Robinson model a while back, while it played really nice I always had the feeling the ageing and period correctness were a bit over done. I ended up selling it and I bought a vintage '68 ES 330 for about the same amount. I still have that one ;-). In my opinion you can't really replicate that vintage feel of an old instrument that's been played for years, it always seems to be a bit contrived.

I’ve never met a semi hollow that I could get along with. 335 or 339. I’m an SG/LP guy myself. Maybe in the future. 😊

Got the 61 one. amazing guitar! smells good, plays even better. the thin neck plays like heaven. my best sounding guitar..

The 64 Reissues seems to be sold out everywhere. I hope a lot of people will buy one. So maybe someday I can get one used...

I was just watching your other 335 videos and this pops up... weird but so good !!

Well done! I love the 335s. They have a true unique tone to them. You are not kidding there is a big difference between the Custom Shop and normal production guitars. I have a 60th R9 and the neck, fit and finish is and tone are out of this world. I also picked up a 2020 Trini Lopez '64 Reissue and it is phenomenal. I picked up a Wildwood Spec '63 ES-335. It's a Memphis shop but it's tone rivals the two customs. Fret work and neck are not quite the same though. If I get another Gibson, it will definitely be a Custom.

Man I love this guitar. U til I can afford the Gibson, I have an epiphone es335 pro, and I had my luthier gut the electronics and install p-rails with triple shots and all switch craft and CT’s pots & switches & jacks and now it is definitively my most versatile guitar. Still doesn’t say Gibson on the headstock but will tide me over for a while : )

A 335-style guitar is arguably the most versatile guitar. No need to single one manufacturer out. Full size semi-hollows are my thing, and I have an Epiphone Riviera P93. Three P90s allow me to get any tone I can imagine. I'd put that guitar at the top of the list for most versatile. Two humbuckers can be limiting so a good remedy would be to have a 335-style guitar with a P90 in the Neck and a Filter'Tron in the Bridge. For a two pickup guitar that would pretty much cover all your bases.

Jools Holland’s guitarist is Mark Flanagan. A stunning underrated player.

My only guitar is a 335 and nothing else will do. I could listen to y’all noodle on them all day causeI just like the sound.

It's definitely one of the more versatile guitars out there, as long as Gibson doesn't bandsaw it in half and chuck it in the bin for a minor paint flaw.

Just like so many, that is my second favorite guitar. A 335 and a Strat is all I would ever want.

The room smells authentic. I laughed so hard!

I can only imagine if you had one of these, it would always feel like a "special" guitar to play - which would really have an impact on how and what you play. 335 owners, tell me if I'm right!

Cherry and Sunburst ones are all over the place. I got a 1958 Dot reissue with a pro installed Bigsby in Natural color. It's a gorgeous sounding blonde!

I've never understood exactly if the ES-335 (and similar models) as well as being iconic is the most versatile guitar, but it certainly has its own great personality and simply wonderful features... I have one that I use to record my songs and for some sounds it's really ideal.

Spot on Video on 335s 😎 I’ve played all the 3 models: '59 - True Semi-hollow body sound with Gibson's characteristic tone '61 - Aggressive but pleasant sounding semi-hollow (my fav) '64 - Sounds & feels like a Les Paul aka Solid body but in a 335 format I was a Les Paul snoot but now appreciate and admire the versatility of a 335. Some times I feel, 335 is what a good Les Paul should sound like - rich with an acoustic halo. Cheers to Captain & Pete for sharing great observations, sound demos, acoustic quality and passionately making these videos! Love from India ❤

I'm a simple person, I see a red 335 hardtail I upvote

it really does sound better in red

i used to prefer the strat/les paul combi , but the last few years i have converted to the tele /ES 335 combi , wich for me are both the most versatile guitars ever made . But every now and then i still like to play my strat or lp . Just add an good acoustic guitar and you're done .

OMG Pete! Such tasty demo stuff when doing the comparison. Beautiful playing on these phenomenal guitars! LOVE the 335’s.

The red one for sure !! Sound so warmy ❤️

Can we take a second and talk about how dope this rhythm progression is? This will be learned and put on my looping pedal immediately! Hours of blissful playing approaching!!

I'm still a firm believer that the telecaster is the most versatile guitar ever made.

i love the look on petes face when the captain misses the change

Thanks for sharing the amazing difference in tone between the three, not to mention the various tone available with each.

Researching pedals and came across your channel and Danish Pete. A fan of the channel and Pete's playing. Excellent on both counts! Bravo! Loved the Fender 2018 Pedal review. Picked up a few of them.

I own Tokai ES224 with nitro finish, which is my gavourite guitar since I've bought it. Super versatile!

Man, that red es335 sounds flippin' awesome!!

Those guitars sound so good I want one!! The jam at the beginning was tight

I can't say how much I love my 335. It's an '81 dot in natural, which was passed on to me by my pop. I've never played a guitar that sounded better, at any price, and I've been playing a long time. If you can afford one at any of their various price ranges, you owe it to yourself to try one, no matter what genre of music you play. Heck, with the strides Epiphone is making, I wouldn't be surprised if theirs are great too. And they FINALLY fixed that bloody headstock.

Mark Flanagan in Jools Rhythm and Blues Orchestra. The Captain is the voice of reason

Had a '92 since new; BB2 replacing the 490 bridge pickup made all the difference in the world. My only issue is ergonomic: it's a big guitar to reach around, and the neck joins the body and extends further out then most, and I'm not that big a guy, so despite it being my favourite sounding instrument, I don't often play it.

I recently walked into a music shop intent on buying another strat. Thought I’d play a 335 just for “comparison”. iv always loved the sound and look of them but figured they were way out of my budget. After one touch to the neck I new this was going to be an expensive visit to the music shop. It was love at first note for my vintage burst satin finish 335.

I’m with Pete on this one the red 335 1964 is the one. I’m not into red guitars but there is something about the tone on that one.

for me the most versatile guitar ever is an HSS Strat

God that red 335 is just beautiful

🔥🔥🔥 Videos like this solidifies the duo top spot 🔥🔥🔥 I love the comprehensive look through the eyes of a player!

"That lovely, wholesome intonation."

I've lived in my perfect Les Paul world, and now you're making me want a 335? How dare you? 😀

Love the cherry tone and the natural look

Pete's playing always makes me smile!

Maaaan, that intro was the bomb, sounded so good!

These look and sound gorgeous! At the risk of gate-crashing a Gibson party - I bought an Eastman T-59/V-RD earlier this year, which is obviously "inspired" by the classic '335... and, yeah - it's just such a versatile guitar. It's a bit of a return to my roots, because my first "proper" guitar was an Epiphone EA-255 Casino back in the '70s.

I'd say they are both 'THE' ES-335 I picture. Burst for Dots, and the Red with blocks. Both are gorgeous.

Most versatile? I'd like it to be able to do high gain metal without feedbacking then. I think that that award goes to the Tele

I bought a 1968 Walnut Finished Gibson ES 335 in 1972 from a Pawn Shop for $350.00 Dollars with a Brown Leather covered hard shell case. Back then a lot people didn't know the value of most guitars and there wasn't the internet to help then find out. It now worth a whole lot more.
