Gibson ES-339 Honey Burst – compact semi-hollow electric guitar with classic tone and modern comfort
Overview and features
The Gibson ES-339 is a modern classic that captures the tone and spirit of the ES-335 in a smaller, lighter form. With its semi-hollow construction and elegant Honey Burst finish, the ES-339 delivers the signature Gibson warmth and versatility that have made the ES series a mainstay among players for more than six decades.
Construction and materials/components
The body is built from three layers of maple and poplar, finished in thin nitrocellulose lacquer that enhances resonance and sustain. The mahogany neck features a comfortable Rounded C profile, while the rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dots provides smooth playability. Its compact size makes it ideal for long sessions on stage or in the studio.
Electronics and sound
Equipped with a ’57 Classic in the neck and a slightly hotter ’57 Classic + in the bridge, the ES-339 offers an impressively wide tonal range. The hand-wired control circuit features two volume and two tone controls plus a 3-way toggle switch for intuitive sound shaping. The ABR-1 bridge and aluminum Stop Bar tailpiece provide tuning stability, sustain, and classic Gibson tone response.
