"I've always liked the semi-solid ES guitars. The new ES-347 has an excellent sound, and I like the wide neck and pickups too". Joaquin Lievano with Jean Luc Ponty... "I can get warm and mellow sounds for jazz - but can also get a good biting sound for rock". and George McCorkle - the Marshall Tucker Band...
