ES-339 PRO Semi Hollow Electric - Ebony
 This product is no longer available.
Through the course of more than five decades and myriad shifting musical styles, the ES-335 has remained one of the most popular electric guitars of all time. Its ingenious blend of hollowbody warmth and complexity and solidbody bite and sustain made it arguably the most versatile guitar available when Gibson introduced the model in 1958, and that design imperative hasnt changed today.

For some players more accustomed to the slimmer lines and more compact dimensions of a solidbody electric, though, the standard ES-335 can feel just a little large and unwieldy. Enter Gibson Memphis's ES-339, a guitar built to the design ethos of its predecessor the ES-335, but fashioned to proportions closer to those of the legendary Gibson solidbodies such as the Les Paul and SG. The gently arched top with real f-holes, thinline semi-hollow body, solid maple center block to reduce feedback and enhance sustain, rounded symmetrical cutaways with unparalleled upper-fret accessall here, minus a little of the bulk and weight.

Just picked it up today after putting it on hold after playing it for the first time a few days ago. As a Les Paul player the neck felt very familiar so I didn't have to adjust to it at all. The fingerboard is very smooth and feels great. It doesn't feel bulky like a lot of other semi hollows due to the scaled down body. Pickup splitters are an amazing feature. I like to put the neck on single coil and the bridge on humbucker so I can change from a bright acoustic-like sound to a crunchy electric tone. The whole thing is nice and light as well. Overall fantastic guitar, more than worth the amazing price. 10/10 would recommend.

I purchased this used from L&M in Victoria. J.F. is outstanding and highy recommeded. It came with a high quality fitted case, and the price was a steal. I've tried quite a few Epi 339's (and 335's) but most of them had irritating quality control issues that made me avoid purchasing. It's a shame, as the design is great and the price is affordable. It seems to me that it takes the same amount of time and effort/investment to make a good one as it does a bad one, but I guess that inconsistency is part and parcel of Epi's Chinese operations. Anyway, this particular example is excellent - not perfect, but very good. A couple of silly blemishes, but nothing that affects the tone and playability. Annoying, but not a deal-breaker. Action and intonation needed to be reset. Easy enough to do. I added graphite to the nut grooves and saddles, and along with a lemon oil treatment of the fingerboard and new strings. Now it feels very nice to play. It holds tuning well, which I didn't expect from many online reviews. Good quality tulip Grover-style machine heads. The smaller design of the body sits well when playing. The body is light (of course), but neck/body feel well balanced. Sustain isn't legendary, but acceptable. Sound through amplification is good, certainly not great. I plan on upgrading the p/ups, probably will do the wiring and switches while I'm at it (although the switches are good quality and not as flimsy as many reviewers have reported). I think this one's a keeper.

This guitar is a phenomenal guitar for the price that is being paid. The coil-tapping gives even more variety when messing around with tones and sounds. The semi-hollow body really makes the guitar sound powerful when plugged into a good amp. I definitely recommend this guitar for anyone looking for an affordable but still versatile guitar!

I have had this guitar for about a year now and it continues to impress me. The variety of sound and great feel is fabulous. Excellent quality, it just needed a little setup to suit personal needs.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
