Yes, the ones made in the '70s-'90s are great values vs. the reissues.
Good point. Also, it's easier to find a 320 in a color other than Mapleglo or Jetglo ...

Buy one of Gary's. . . or both.
There is no reason to ever be bored.

what about the JL limited edition... would that compare more to a 58 or a 64?

It would compare more to a C64.

JL's were made before the C series and are essentially 325v63s with fancy pickguards. Hence, much less historically accurate than a 325c64. More collectible, though.

I meant to say it would look more like a C64, but is closest to a V63. The OP asked was the JL closer to the C58 or the C64.
