Gibson's ES-339 semi-hollowbody electric guitar offers musicians a winning combination of resonant tone and sleek playability. Its semi-hollow maple and poplar body resonates with woody character, enhanced by dual '57 Classic humbuckers that conjure vintage PAF tone. A rounded C-shaped mahogany neck and 12" fretboard radius play fast and familiar.

Dual '57 Classic Humbuckers Channel Iconic Gibson Tone

The ES-339's dual '57 Classic humbucking pickups deliver warm, harmonically rich tone reminiscent of Gibson's 1950s PAF humbuckers. With vintage-accurate specs and construction, '57 Classics capture the depth, dynamics and musicality of Gibson's golden age. They handle everything from articulate cleans to raunchy rock leads with ease.

Resonant Semi-Hollow Maple and Poplar Body

A lightweight maple and poplar body gives the ES-339 a resonant, woody voice. Its semi-hollow design minimizes feedback at high volumes yet produces ambient tone with subtle acoustic properties. A maple top further enhances articulation and note definition. The ES-339's body is comfortable to play during long sessions, ideal for musicians of smaller stature or those simply preferring a more compact instrument.

Fast, Familiar Rounded C Neck Profile

The ES-339's rounded C-shaped mahogany neck has a slim, fast feel familiar to most guitarists. Its 12" radius rosewood fretboard facilitates smooth bends and low-action playing. 22 medium frets extend the range to cover a wide variety of musical styles. The neck's moderate depth provides stability under the fingers without feeling bulky.

Robust Hardware and High-Performance Upgrades

Grover Rotomatic tuners with kidney buttons provide rock-solid tuning stability. A Tune-O-Matic bridge and stop tailpiece anchor the strings and transfer vibration efficiently. High-quality pots and caps are wired to a three-way pickup selector switch, individual volume and tone controls for versatile tonal shaping. All hardware is finished in nickel, complementing the ES-339's transparent ebony finish. Now available at Guitar Center, pick up your ES-339 Gibson today.
