Legendary Semi-hollowbody Tone, Smaller Body
The Gibson Memphis ES-339 semi-hollowbody electric guitar gives you the legendary sound, playability, and versatility of Gibson's larger ES Series guitars, and delivers it all in a smaller body size that's ideal for guitarists more comfortable with solidbody instruments. The lightly-arched maple top adorns a "thinline" maple body with a solid maple center block that reduces feedback and enhances sustain. Adorned with a pair of '57 Classic humbuckers and a fast mahogany neck topped with a rosewood fingerboard, the ES-339 lends itself to just about any musical style you're into. Sweetwater guitarists love the Gibson Memphis ES-339. You will, too!
Gibson Memphis ES-339 Semi-hollowbody Electric Guitar at a Glance:- Legendary tone from '57 Classic humbuckers
- Hollowbody richness meets solidbody sustain
- Gibson Custom's commitment to quality
Tonal excellence is yours when you plug the ES-339 into your favorite tube amplifier. Loaded with a pair of '57 Classic humbucking pickups, each with their own volume and tone controls, you'll be able to dial in chiming country tones as easily as savagely distorted rock tones. The neck pickup gives you classic hollowbody mojo for everything from smooth jazz to dirty blues. Flip to the bridge position, and you'll command sounds covering everything from bright and clean to raw and mean. And when you roll back the volume, Gibson's Memphis Tone Circuit is onboard to maintain your high end.
Hollowbody richness meets solidbody sustainGibson 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 solidbody guitars but crave the warmth and tonal complexity of a hollowbody, the ES-339 is for you. You'll love the harmonic richness that resonates from the ES-339's semi-hollowbody, and you'll also really appreciate the feedback resistance and enhanced sustain provided by its solid maple center block. Guitarists of all calibers can appreciate the sound of the ES-339, but if you perform nightly, you'll find it to be a dream come true.
