DIME-O-LICIOUS

I bought this guitar at a local guitar store USED and it is easily the best guitar i have ever owned, ive had everything from gibson les pauls to B.C.Rich signature Kerry king v's, none of them compare.

"Get one. I will make Dime happy"

even though you can tell it's a digital sticker when your up close it looks amazing when you take a couple steps back.

i got this in a trade and still oh $200 but well worth it

only 9 cuz the 2nd fret wasn't seated all the way so there's a bad fret buzz when playing on the first fret.

they need to make a full blown version with original floyd and emg's

An omen is a sign, and Schecter was right in naming this guitar the Omen. With its sleek carved top basswood body, 24-fret bolt-on Maple neck with a Rosewood fretboard, and two Diamond humbuckers, it’s sure to be a signal that great sound quality and beautiful design go hand-in-hand.

Pickups could be better; a bit on the deep side, they tend to lack a bit of of high end sparkle. The pickups have the potential of being replaced down the road as I got in on this guitar way low, however, one should remember that this is basically a good value, entry-level guitar.

Made in Korea. Basswood body. Bolt-on maple neck. Rosewood fingerboard. 25-1/2' scale. 24 jumbo frets. Dot markers. String-thru tailpiece. Diamond tuners. Chrome hardware. Dual Diamond humbuckers (passive). 3-way toggle switch for pickup selection. Electric Blue Finish.

Bought used so factory set-up cannot be commented on. Previous owner never played it — guitar, when purchased, was covered in dust. Cleaned up, the electric blue finish is fantastic. Almost transparent, it shows off the basswood grain nicely. I did note a few small finish flaws below the surface, but again, this guitar gets high marks for value for an entry level instrument. Biggest complaint is the sharp fret edges. I will need to do a fret job on it as the previous owner may have let the fretboard dry out (and shrink). The neck pocket was very well done transmitting good resonance throughout. Had the frets been done better, the rating would have easily been close to a 9.

None needed. I do my own work.

The ES-335 brought hollowbody tradition and solidbody performance together in 1958, and is still one of the all-time classic guitar designs. Gibson’s Custom Shop offers this variation on a theme with a plain top and satin lacquer finish.

First , let me begin by saying that there are several companies that make better guitars than Gibson, and at much more reasonable prices, but the fact is that if you want that classic 335 sound, there's only one way to get it, and that's to buy the real thing from the guys who invented it.

I play blues, classic rock, and jazz, and this guitar fits all three styles perfectly. Nothing else sounds like it. It was exactly what I was looking for. I have owned other Gibson semi-hollows before including an ES333 (junk), and a Lucille. Both of these guitars incorporate the 490 series humbuckers. To my ears nothing compares with the Classic '57's. They're really what makes this guitar shine. It's extremely versatile.

This ES335 Dot rolled of the line in March of 1995. Cherry, but not the solid spray paint looking cherry. 50's rounded neck.The finish shows though to reveal some nice flame. '57 Humbuckers. Gibson brown hardshell case with the pink lining and cover. If you're looking for a 335, it has all the standard features.

I purchased this guitar used on ebay. I bought it for a great price and had planned on spending a couple of hundred to make it playable, but it needed nothing.

The frets show a little wear on the top 3 strings, but in no way effect playability. The original owner had the action way too low for me, and the relief needed adjustment. A 1/8th turn of the truss rod and an action adjustment returned the guitar back to factory specs (action measured at the 12th fret: 5/64" at the sixth string down to 3/64" at the first string), and the guitar now plays and feels perfect for me.

Intonation is perfect measured with a Boss TU2 tuner. No fret buzz or acoustic rattles. Structurally sound.

The fatter 50's style neck is straight with no twists or humps, the bridge is perfectly centered. I don't examine every inch of my guitars with a magnifying glass. If there are any defects in the finish work I have not found them. It looks and feels great.

Eh. Sometimes they answer emails…sometimes they don't. And that's just for general questions. I do have an idea though, about the quality of attention you'd recieve if you contacted them with a complaint.

My experience is that they are friendly and helpful when they bother to reply, regarding simple issues that aren't going to cost them anything to resolve.

In my opinion, this is the most flexible guitar in the world. The "perfect" guitar. Distinctive full sound with the 57 HB. Glides-no need to bend. I play it out of an Axsys Line 6, so it can hit almost any sound. A little large but it is absolutely beautiful.

1997- made in USA-24 fret-laminated, figured top-standard Gibson set-up;2vol.2tone, one 3 way.Classic '57 HB (rhythm,treble). Maple body with maple centerblock, one piece Mahogany neck. Vintage Sunburst. Double cut. Stop tailpiece. Grover tuners. neck-1960 slim taper. Case included (I hope so for $2000)

I found the factory setup fine. Minor adjustment to the neck HB- that was it. I have 13 guitars and I checked the entire guitar out with my magnifying (lighted) glass, and it was without flaw. A truly great example of Tennessee craftmanship. (Guess where I live?). Lots of flame- a true reissue of a classic.

The people at Gibson are the best! No repairs-new.

Featuring an ultra thin, two-horned body, the SG Series addressed two of what Ted McCarty saw as the major issues of the now-retired Les Paul body style: weight and limited access to the upper treble register. The new body shape of the SG Standard was dramatically lighter than the old Les Paul, and offered access to the entire fretboard. Now part of Gibson’s proprietary new Vintage Original Spec series — the next step in their journey toward perfection.

An ultra-fine layer of D’Addario’s exclusive EXP Coating is bonded to the 80/20 Bronze wrap wire which is then wound onto the hex-shaped core wire, resulting in a built-in barrier against corrosion and wear. Strings retain their inherent extra-bright tone and natural feel, yet last 3-4 times longer than traditional strings. These are D’Addario’s brightest-sounding extended play strings.

"Perfect Strings"

These strings will not easily rust, they never show dirt or grime and never flake.

The strings are a bit pricey, BUT you must realize that they pay for themselves around the 1st month you've had them. Because you don't have to change the strings, you're saving money.

The quality of the strings are extreemly high, as I stated before they have never slipped on me after first tuning. A capo will not cause need for re-tuning on these strings and they're very easy to put on your guitar, clearly labled and packaged.

I feel confident in using these strings on ANY of my future guitars, and they do make me have a bit more faith in the company.

Marquis

I have used many types of strings from elixers to Dean Markley's and everything in between but you cannot find a better sounding string than the Martin Marquis. I use them on an 82 Yamaha FG180 and when I first play with strangers in a jam session (playing Martin Guitars) they ask me "damn what kind/brand of guitar is that"? I tell them "it's the strings" although the guitar is not a high end instrument it is a good guitar. The marquis really set it off. Most of the time the strings hold up but here lately i have had some durability and tuning problems (not staying tuned). Do they sell lower end or reproduction marquis that i am not aware of. Anyway these are good strings man.

Fender Six from Magnolia, Arkansas (Jul 23, 2008)

This is a serious guitar. It appears to have almost everything it takes to be a great steel string guitar: Great balance. very powerful but warm and singing tone. Deep bass and crystal clear trebles. Overtones are excellent. It responds!

Like other GAS(guitar Acquistion Syndrome) suffers I've been repeating the buy-and-sell or upgrade practice. Not satisfied with Martin 000-28EC, I tried such high-end guitars as Santa Cruz, Huss and Dalton, Collings, etc. But they sound great but don't measure up to this particular Martin. I think there is something about it.(Many other Martins do not sound great)

This is an OM version of D-28 Marquis or a Indian Rosewood version of OM-28GE. Superb adirondack top. A simple elegance and beauty.

Action is perfect. Finish is excellent. It is a simple beauty.

I didn't deal with Martin company directly. But they provided limited lifetime warranty.

I purchased this from Foxes Music in Falls Church, Virginia. They(esp, Mr. Blair) are very kind and responsive to customers.
