Larry Carlton and Gibson ES-335: 'Right machine with the right man'

"Master musician Larry Carlton has experimented with other guitars, but hes always returned to his trusted Gibson ES-335. The instruments warm tone is integral to Carltons distinct sound and playing style," writes guitar.com's Bill Milkowsi. "But Carlton has a special bond with his instrument - its the right machine with the right man - and, on Fingerprints (Carltons newest solo release and 20th album as a solo artist), the results are breathtaking.," Milkowski concludes. "'Its the same one (ES-335) Ive had all these years. I got it new back in 1968,'" Carlton says.
