I like the drummer. Very talented. Bass player has a nice sound and I like they moved him up in the mix so you can hear him. Most producers bury the bass in the background.

it's a technical achievement that's unmistakable, but whether it's valuable to you depends on whether you're into the sort of pop/rock music that comes about as a result of studio experimentation

Interesting. Mine's a 335td but doesn't look like any of those. The Single coil/double coil swith is on the lower bout by the neck and it has a suspension tailpiece. My guess is that it was an early 80's/late 70's model. I should probably look it up one of these days.
