  5. why would you buy a guitar and not know what it is? call gibson and give them the SN.

    ES-339

    inspect the guitar before you buy it. problem solved. my ES-339 is perfect. sweet thread resurrection, though.

    the burstbucker 1/2 are actually more vintage correct in that they have an uneven number of windings. it is those extra windings that give the BBs that little edge that i like. the 57s are good, but they dont do it for me. i havent played the 57 plus though

    i dont think he jumped all over you. but you are both right. it really just depends on the year and the model. most historics made in the last 5 years have the BBs. but i have also seen new R8s with 57 classics when they are supposed to have BBs.
  9. +1 i have seen the old 90s case bleed into white guitars. only think i can think of is maybe humidity? sounds too stupid and obvious to be right though....
  10. keep in mind that Jimmy Page washed his hands of the guitar you speak of. i love the way my Classic looks, but i dont like the way it sounds. the PUs are too harsh and grating for my ears. I like more vintage sounds from a LP, which is why I like the BB Pros. For heavier stuff, I have my LP Studio and SG with the 490/498 combo.
