Yeah- very nice looking guitar. Reminds me of a smaller Roy Orbison 335 (minus the TP-6 tailpiece)...

I didn't know ebony was an option. I'm waiting for a 339 in antique burst but I'd have gone for the ebony if I'd known. How long before Vari-tone is available, or would that damage Lucille sales?

GuitarCenter has the Antique Burst (with 59 neck) available now on their website. They also knocked the price down for the Antique Red (with 30/60 neck) to $1799. Not sure, why the Antique Red is discounted.

Apparently Wildwood just orders a few of these with custom paint colors, which makes them a little more expensive. The Ebony ES-339 is going for about two benjamins more than the Vintage 'burst.

 

Not that I'm complaining, I love black guitars! [cool]

That's a pretty good price if you like the Antique Red finish.

 

Anyway, it's nice to see these are becoming available outside of just the big-box stores.

I didn't think about Wildwood doing custom orders, but that makes sense.
