I'm not sure if the year is correct, but the model appears to be. Honeyman-Scott can be seen playing his Gibson ES-335 at the 1:45 mark of this Pretenders live performance for "Brass In Pocket." In his 1981 Guitar Player magazine interview with Jas Obrecht, Honeyman-Scott stated he acquired a 335 when he was 16. According to statements in the interview, during recording sessions for The Pretenders' debut album, Honeyman-Scott multi-tracked the solo bridge on "Mystery Achievement" with his 335 and Chrissie Hynde also "borrowed" his 335 to track her guitar part for the song, "Kid".
