Why? You have it already. Its an AVRI 62, Classic Player 60s, Vintera 60s…

I’ve been waiting for years for an affordable DG-335. They got so close with the Pelham Blue ES-335 they did. I will definitely be buying that guitar when it releases.

No doubt it'll be like £800/1000$

I want the DG Epi. But it's probably going to push eye-wateringly close to $2k. $1799 is my guess.

I love my dg-335 I bought when it came out in 2007, excited for more to be available!

I’m really enjoying all your information about these guitarists. I was going to add a suggestion to add Joe Bonamassa. I’ve been getting into his gear a lot lately. Guitars amps and pedals. So much to discuss and his tone is insane. Thanks bro keep it up.

Ive ordered my DG335. I cant wait for it to get here... in 5 months

If fender makes a John Frusciante Strat like they did with the Mike McCready Strat, they can definitely put me down for one.

Please a matte finish for the Silver Sky SE too!

Definitely need a DG 335. As long as they do the Epi as an "inspired by Gibson" model that has the higher end components and Gibson pickups I really do not care that the headstock has the Epi logo. But they need to keep the price tag around the $1,300 they have been pushing. Going to $1,500 like they have done with the Kirk Hammett models would be highly disappointing. I really like the idea of having a John Frusciante signature Strat as well. The possible prototypes he has been playing do leave a bit to be desired. Without relicking (not sure if that's actually a word) the wood under the finish, it kind of makes the guitar look cheap. Hopefully the execution turns out better or maybe Ill just have to play it enough to look more natural. Super stoked on those two guitar for sure.

I am a sucker for the matte finishes. My PRS dealer told me, “we aren’t allowed to say anything, but you’ll be hearing from us soon.” I would think it will be available for preorder within the next month or so.

my dream guitar is a Gibson DG-335. current prices of the existing ones are truly unobtainable. i wouldn’t be totally opposed to a trini, but i’m a 50s neck guy and don’t want a 60s neck (ie trini), and would prefer the stop tailpiece. that said, i’m really hoping to see a re-release of the DG-335. i’d be stoked to see both Gibson and Epi versions, though i’d be looking for a Gibson myself.

John mayer just announced the silver sky!

As much as I'm excited for the release of the Epi DG 335, I am more anxious on whether the guitar will be available for left-handed players. I saw the Emily Wolfe Epiphones and was so upset to see they weren't made left-handed. Those are really nice and the closest to an available DG/Trini type guitar right now, so my disappointment was down the drain. Anyway, thanks for the updates/speculation!

Nice Faded Black Tee!

Holding out for a reissue of the Noel Gallagher 355

🤞 on the JF guitar

Dave probably played a gibson custom shop with ephiphine logo hahaha

They will probably go the route like the Mike Mccready model.

Could you do videos on Rory Gallagher's, Eric Clapton's and Brian May's guitars?

I'd love the Fruciante Strat . But I'd not pay £1500 of a MIM version . Likewise an Epi at £13-1600 is not worth it .

have a very early road worn MiM Strat in 3tsb and the relic looks incredible. the newer MiM relic Jobs Look a bit artificial in my opinion. Also have a american vintage II 61 3tsb for around the same price as the MiM mc creedy. by the way no relic but the pu's in the vintage II are incredible 😉

Preordered the Faded Black Tee Satin! ETA July 2025.

What about Wolfies SA-126?!

dave grohl in Melbourne used a white Epiphone i didn't get any photos though

Really hoping for a gold DG335

I might pick up a Dave Grohl Epiphone. I’m not particularly a fan, but I like the Trini Lopez Gibsons that those are based on. I remember that it was often hard to find high E strings long enough to fit the ‘60s Trinis, which came with trapeze tailpieces, so I’d like having one with a stop tailpiece. Vintage ones are priced way out of my range, so are Custom Shop ones, and I wouldn’t want to mod one of those anyway. With it being an Epiphone, they should be more affordable. I don’t care if it’s called a Dave Grohl or a Trini Lopez-it’s pretty cool!

If I know Gibson and Epiphone then if they are planning a Gibson re-run (hopefully white too!) then they’ll release those first and Epiphone second. I hope to god they do gold it’s my favourite! But tbh all the colours Dave plays are cool 😆

I’m still waiting for my pre-ordered dead spec silver sky, hyped about it! And I’m also looking for the Manson EVO of Matt Bellamy from Muse 😅 But a Frusciante strat…. Pff my first guitar inspiration is also a really likable guitar, but please it must be American not Mexican

They just announced the John Mayer thing lol

I really hope for a JF sig strat but not a MIM but rather a USA version... however I just don't think JF is wanting to release a sign strat as for him even a pick with his name on it is too much "rock star" thing which he doesn't like... so if there will be a JF sig model that will actually surprise me...

My guess is Epiphone DG-335 Pelham Blue $1200 - $1500 (harshell case and Epiphone Pro Buckers) Epiphone DG 335 Gold Limited Edition $1500- $1900 (hardshell with Gibson USA Burstbuckers 2 and 3 like Dave's Gibby) Fender Frusciante Player Stratocaster $1000 - $1200 Squier Frusciante Stratocaster CV $800 - $1000

Frusciante!!)

I want the se Myles Kennedy I want that one

ill be too broke to afford a fender frusciante custom lmao

I really don't think we're getting a frusciante signature personally. I'm a huge chili peppers fan and a sig strat would be amazing but frusciante doesn't really seem like the kinda guy to want a signature to me, mainly because he's left the band twice because he didn't enjoy the fame and being a rock star. I assume the replica is so he can go a little easier on his 62' but who knows 🤷‍♂️

You forgot about the Tom Delonge Starcaster

Greta van fleet's Jake Kizska getting a 61 Les Paul this year (SG body)

Probably the most anticipated guitar of 2024 is the Tom Delonge Starcaster.

Mayer talked with Cory Wong on his Wong Notes pod about how he thinks that every guitarist that releases a sig should have their own "one-off" version of the guitar, something that no one else can get/have. Since every other color of the SS has been released, even his Dead Spec version, I actually think the matte charcoal SS may be his new "number 1" axe, akin to the BLK1 or SRV's #1 strat. Clearly, the BLK1 has been through so much that it clearly can't be a regular touring guitar anymore, so I think the matte charcoal SS is probably the newer version of that, maybe even with unique pups in it.

I would absolutely grab a white Gibson DG-335. If they release the Epiphone with a laurel fretboard however, that’s a dope guitar just gone to waste. Would much rather pay $200 more for a real rosewood fretboard

“Special” John frusciante pickups wouldn’t be any more special than the rest of the guitar…. It’s really just the relic pattern you are paying for.

John Frusciante needs to create some guitar-orientated solo albums. The last two RHCP albums were a letdown.
