Product information

General

The American-made Gibson Modern Collection ES-339 figured has all the tonal character of an ES-335; the snug, manageable comfort of a slimline solidbody; and the sumptuous style of a AAA-grade maple soundboard coated in transparent nitrocellulose lacquer. While more compact than its cousins, this hollowbody packs the same rich resonance provided by a 3-ply maple and poplar build, alongside the full comfort and smooth playability of a rounded, C-profile neck, medium jumbo frets and 12" fretboard radius.

The ES-339 Figured: A Bright Acoustic Foundation & Thick Amplification

Since the body of the ES-339 has been shaved down a touch, the acoustic foundation has a brighter edge. To balance it out, Gibson have loaded this thinline archtop with a fat pair of '57 Classic humbuckers and the traditional four pot and 3-way switch control-combo, so this guitar can flip from the heavy bottom-end of the '57+ at the bridge to the more vintage vibe of the standard '57 at the neck, or mix up a forceful blend of both. In terms of hardware, it doesn't get much more stable than a set of nickel-plated Grover Rotomatic tuners, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, lightweight aluminium Stop Bar, and GraphTech nut. The Figured edition of the ES-339 comes complete with a hardshell case and Gibson Accessory Kit.

Gibson Modern Collection ES-339 Figured Blueberry Burst Semi-Acoustic Guitar with Case

Erg mooie gitaar van Gibson. De blueberry burst lak op een mooi figured esdoorn hout werk heel goed en heeft een behoorlijke wow factor. De bespeelbaarheid van deze gitaar is eveneens top. De hals heeft een wat dikker profiel wat voor mij goed werkt en de frets zijn heel goed afgewerkt. Klank is ook mooi, je krijgt een mooie balans tussen vintage en iets moderner vintage sound door de iets hottere brug pickup. De sound is misschien iets gearticuleerder dan bij de ES335, maar misschien een fractie minder warm. Je krijgt een strake, punchy sound uit deze gitaar die zowel clean als overstuurd erg mooi klinkt. Kost wat, maar is ook wel echt een top gitaar.
