Troels Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 The sticky post about Gibson Custom Shop serial numbers is incorrect/incomplete and can't possibly be an official and serious message from Gibson. These days all guitars with regular serial numbers coming out of Memphis are Custom Shop guitars with orange labels as well as the CS number guitars coming out of both Memphis (339) and Nashville. All guitars from Memphis come with Certificate of Autenthicity and Gibson Gold Lifetime warranty, custom case and include custom shop case candy. Another excellent example of Gibson lacking knowledge about themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWanker Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 The 339 is not manufactured in Memphis. Wonder how they can sell this model for so much less than a 335?...hmmm??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ES-339 is made in Memphis as are all the CS signatures (Carlton, BB...). Only Historic ES-335 1959 and 1963 with block inlays are still in Nashville - but it's not clear if they are still available. Gibson Customer service knows less about Gibson than your and me - unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWanker Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 2 things; 1) You assume too much, & 2) 339s are assembled in Memphis, there's a big difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
