Fitted with a pair of Memphis Historic Spec (MHS) humbuckers, and a fast mahogany neck topped with a rosewood fingerboard, the Gibson Memphis ES-339 lends itself to just about any musical style you're into.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eHollow body richness meets solid body sustain - Gibson Memphis designed the ES-339 to have the same tonal appeal as its big sibling, the ES-335, but with a smaller body style. If you grew up on solid body guitars but crave the warmth and tonal complexity of a hollow body, the ES-339 is for you.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eYou'll love the harmonic richness that resonates from the ES-339's semi-hollow body, and you'll also really appreciate the feedback resistance and enhanced sustain provided by its solid maple centre block. Gibson Memphis redesigned the neck dimensions and used low-profile frets for a more comfortable feel. Guitarists of all calibres can appreciate the sound of the ES-339, but if you perform nightly, you'll find it to be a dream come true.”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeatures -\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Body Type: Semi-hollow body\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Body Shape: ES-339\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Body Material: 3-ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Top Material: 3-ply Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Body Finish: Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Neck Material: Quartersawn Mahogany\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Neck Shape: Rounded C\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Radius: 12\"\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Fingerboard Material: Rosewood\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Fingerboard Inlay: Pearloid Dots\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Number of Frets: 22, Medium Jumbo, Silver  \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Scale Length: 24.75\"\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Nut Width: 1.687\"\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Nut Material: Bone\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Bridge: ABR-1 Bridge with Nickel-plated Brass Saddles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Tailpiece: Die-cast Zinc Stopbar Tailpiece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Tuners: Kluson Deluxe\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Neck Pickup: MHS II Rhythm Humbucker\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Bridge Pickup: MHS II Lead Humbucker\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Controls: 2 x volume, 2 x tone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e 3-way toggle pickup switch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Memphis Tone circuit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e Weight is 7.18 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular ES 339 was built by Gibson’s Custom Shop at its Memphis facility in 2009, and is finished in Sunset Burst gloss. And it is sweet to play. With its \"small hollow body\" concept, the sound is somewhere between an ES-335 and a Les Paul, in our opinion leaning slightly towards the 335.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar is in excellent original condition with no changes, repairs or modifications. It has been played in over 12+ years and has settled nicely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd being a Gibson Custom Shop guitar (serial # CS 90xxx), its fit and finish is second to none. These CS instruments really are something special.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is barely a mark on this guitar. Some very fine scratch marks on the back, but almost impossible to see. There is almost no tarnishing of the metal parts. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully adjustable, and the frets are excellent, with no visible wear. The pickguard shows light pick swirling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e The only thing we can see changed on this guitar is the relocation of the neck end strap button to the upper body bout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction of the ES 339 means it can be warm and woody, mellow and lush on the one hand and then rock hard when required, depending on the amp\/pedal combination.
