Dennis G Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 ES 339 is without a doubt THE best deal that Gibson has out there right now. You can play just about anything with that guitar. +1. I love mine. Here's a promo clip from a couple years ago. It's got a pretty wide range. http://www.gibson.com/Files/AllAccess/2007/Audio_Video/ES339_DEALERSv1/VideoPlayer.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coors Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 it is one of those things you just have to spend quality time playing a few of them to get your feel for what you like. i personally have a 68 sg standard that i still play twice a weekk in a apraise band. i love it as the older ones have a thinner neck. but i hear the new ones do to. good luck in your choosing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milod Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Any ES in that price range is pretty much a great deal if you like the neck on an individual instrument. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottGrove Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 If you really want oppinions, I'll toss in what will be the most unpopular ones by far, but they seriously are my very favorite Gibsons ever made. The Norlin year axes with the Bill Lawrence single coils and bolt on necks. Yep, honestly. Such great axes IMHO. S-1, Corvus III, Marauder II, V/2 Challenger III. The only 2 guitars that Gibson has put out in the past 25+ years that I like are the Les Paul Traditional Pro and the Reverse V. So, let the mud slinging begin.....but, you asked and you got my honest answer. Way too many flawed finishes, broken headstocks, quality control issues for me to pick anything else.
