Oh man what a beautiful guitar! Before this deployment, I would make weekly visits to Guitar Center just to play on it for a few hours... I will own one someday....
You might as well make 30 videos using the same guitar and rig. Every time I see you play a different guitar, I go "wow" nice guitar, same tone, To each his own. rock on.
I've just purchased one of these fine axes (used, but in great condition); a far more manageable size than, say, an Epiphone Sheraton - and I'm six feet four tall! - but keeps "that" sound. I thought it would be really neck heavy but the balance is better on this than on the Sheraton I own (and am now selling). I've posted elsewhere that I'll be using it for more than just front pickup blues and jazz.
I am thinking about buying this guitar and I was wondering what did you think of the guitar out of the box quality ? Needed adjustments ? Over priced ?
which one is best for blues and classic rock ? es 339 or es 137 ? can a 59 rounded neck be like a 30/60 afetr a luthier work, or the fingerboard is bigger on the es 137 and nothing can make it a 30/60 neck ? i want to gergor hilden in my next life.....bélo
Awesome playing. Looks a lovely guitar. On the 2 neck profiles - which is more similar to the PRS Custom 24 standard neck? I have one of these and it is my favourite neck profile. I am thinking of the ES-339. Thanks a lot.
@PF1964 the ES-339 is smaller than the 335, more like the size of a Les Paul. I like it better for that reason, it's kind of a middleman between those two models. Truly the best of both worlds.
they sound very similar, they use the same hardware, wood, and construction with a few little tweaks, 339s have an output jack like a les paul's as opposed to the 335's top mounted one, and the the 339 uses different volume pots.
and the answer for your second question is purely up to you, but the 339 will fit in any place a 335 will
Excellent use of volume controls and toggle switch. Your tones have convinced me that I want a 339 for myself. Great job man and beauty guitar! BTW do you like this small body size? Would you rather play a 335 or this? Thanks!
@Jwguitarjam i bought this 339 from greg and yes they are the cheapest custom shop ES guitars from gibson...but i can tell you...this 339 sounds way better than many more expensive es guitars from gibson...the harmonics, sustain and response are incredible...i´ve played some 335´s and the sound was not so open
This guy can play for sure but what's with his fingers! They look like they have shit on them!

whats the difference between es 335 ans es 359 ?
iConverseMyLife 5 months ago
@iConverseMyLife es 359- sounds kinda like a les paul but not as beefy or aggressive as its a semi hollow.
Es 335- big airy and mellow tone. Classic semi hollow for blues or jazz , well it covers alot of genres much like a les paul

Is the sound of an ES339 very different from an ES335? How different
Which is more appropriate for Jazz and Blues?
