I've been scanning the forum for years, never posted. Here's the deal, picked up the acoustic again after about ten years, been noodling, and now I'm on the ledge. Always wanted a Gibson es 335, can't afford it. Leaning toward epiphone dot. I know I'm not gonna get the Jerry sound with my new hollow body, but I need this guitar. Any ideas?

Any ideas?Those Epi Dots are pretty good guitars. I sold a bunch of them when I was managing a music store. Replacing pickups would be the only mod I would consider. Depends on which Jerry sound you're after. He used a Guild hollow body for a while. It would be good for a 60s tone.
