The Gibson ES-335 has always been one of my favorite guitars. So it was a nice assignment to work with Felix Martin who is a 14-string guitar player, and he very much likes the 335 style. The guitar in the following posts is just that: a 14-string guitar built in the traditional ES-335 manner. We're calling this the FM-335.

Laminating and Bending Sides
The laminates are plain maple veneers with an outside layer of flamed maple. Total thickness is approx. .110"
One wide piece of veneered laminate is used, and this is then cut in half to create the two "matched" sides.
