![]() ![]() I eventually purchased one through a private auction, which I found out afterwards was also listed on Craigslist. ![]() I actually purchased three JL REVS' date=' two of them were are at different stages of completion, but I sold those. Gibson is now selling an ES 330 (which is essentially the same instrument, but with a wider neck which is joined to the body at a higher fret, which means the PUPs are in a different location) for about the same price one of the Lennons, so that's another option. The '65 and Revolution guitars are suberb instruments, and are a cut above even the Elitist Casino (which in itself is excellent). The Revolution also has no pickguard, and an additional black control knob is included, as a knob that didn't match the originals was used as a replacement at one time. The Revolution also different tuners (gold Grovers), and marks are made in the headstock to simulate where the impressions the originals would have left. I have both, and will admit that the Revolution sounds a little different, but any two models of any guitar, especially a hollowbody, are bound to sound somehwat different. This gives the neck a slightly different feel, and is said by some to increase the resonance of the body. ![]() The Revolution model is meant to reproduce the condition of John's guitar after he had the sunburst finish (as in the '65) sanded off, so it has only a very light layer of matte-finished laquer on the neck and body. '](*,)īesides the color, the depth of the laquer finish is different. Lol' date=' oh yeah I didn't realise they were a different colour. ![]()
