davidl Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 What does this have to do with Stratocasters ????? [flapper] ..... Yeah, seen those, I want one....... Hey Damian, What guitar don't you want or don't already have? Not terribly unlike the rest of us...minus the already have part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The RandyMan Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Hey Damian, What guitar don't you want or don't already have? Not terribly unlike the rest of us...minus the already have part. Yeah, really!! I'm thinking that Damian is going to open up a guitar store of his own with the collection he seems to be amassing. If he does, I'll be waiting at that front door.

The RandyMan Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 FuzzDude, if you want it, I say "Buy it!" I have a couple of Epiphones and for the price, they're not bad. I picked up a 335 Dot (my first Epi) for $400, and I'm pretty happy with it. That 339 sounds like a pretty nice deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not an excuse, it's a mission (that's what I tell my wife, anyway). You should take a picture of your entire collection and hide your face amidst the guitars. Then we can play, "Where's Damian?" Waldo got nothin' on you, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duende Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I have just googled the Ultra and it can be had for only £520! ($817)... The features look great too! What a potentially great little guitar "One-Of-A-Kind Electrics Built-in: If you thought the Ultra III was jam-packed with modern features, you won't believe what Epiphone has designed into the Ultra-339. Built discretely into the bridge pickup mounting ring is a full-function, chromatic tuner. Push it's ON/OFF button and sound is immediately muted when the tuner activated. Eleven color-coded LED's identify the note as well as whether it's sharp, flat or in-tune. To allow quick and seamless changes between each pickup system, the Ultra-III's NanoMag Volume knob now doubles as an A/B switch. Just push it in and quickly toggle between Magnetic, NanoMag or both pickup systems with no delay and no "pop." Two additional LED's on the pickup mounting ring provide a visual indicator of which pickup system is active (Red=NanoMag; Blue-Magnetic or Red/Blue=Both). Hook-Up Directly To Your Computer: The Ultra-339 features three different outputs. By using the standard 1/4" MONO output, both the Humbuckers and NanoMag are mixed into one signal. When you plug another 1/4" cable into the Ultra-339's STEREO output, the Humbuckers are routed through one cable and the NanaMag the other. In this way, you can send the Humbuckers to your favorite guitar amp and the NanoMag to the PA or an acoustic guitar amp. Using the A/B switch, you can now change "on-the-fly" between the two outputs. The third output is USB. Using a USB cable (included), you can plug directly into your computer and use guitar applications such as Native Instruments GuitarRigTM 4LE (software included) to play your guitar through a variety of simulated amplifiers and effects and listen through your computer speakers or headphones. GuitarRig also features a recorder, a metronome, a tuner and more" Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
