Andre S Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 By body size. I know 339's are small. Other than body size what's the difference? To a regular 335? I don't think much. I think the pickups are the same. There is a Memphis tone circuit on the 339, which keeps the high end when the tone is rolled off or something like that. Change the topic to something related to es 339's and I'm sure someone like Murph will answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 The 339 is slightly smaller than a 335, but it's bigger than a Les Paul. It's a "touch" bigger than an SG, a bit thicker, but the horns are obviously different. I like the Memphis wiring for live gigging with a dimed tube amp a few feet behind me on a flight case. I can adjust sustain with a slight body turn....... I also am a big fan of the 30/60 neck. Mine's not red, though........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rigormortis Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Didn't one of the ES 33* series have a mahogany block instead of the maple? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
