Epiphone ES-339 Semi-hollowbody - Cherry Review

Great guitar!

Very happy with this guitar - it played perfectly right out of the box, action and intonation set up just right for me. I previously owned an Epi 335 and sold it, a decision I've regretted. I bought the 339 for the smaller body and absolutely love it. Nice snappy sound on the middle position and I'm able to get some nice "chime" out of it for recordings. Maybe a little less… read more "woody" than the 335 but that's not what I was going for. Also, the guitar came in perfect condition and was packaged with care. With less stock available because of the pandemic, getting guitars has been more difficult. I had some very bad experiences with another company that several times sent me old guitars (expensive Gibsons) in bad condition trying to pass them off as new, very frustrating to say the least. Thank you to Sweetwater and to Ashton (my rep) for delivering a quality product.

Super helpful!

I knew I wanted the new inspired by es-339. David, the sales rep assisting me, made the purchase experience outstanding and helped me "see" their inventory of cherry 339's enabling me to pick out my specific guitar. Thanks for your great customer service!

Dream Struck

I purchased this guitar to see if I liked the style enough to actually buy a Gibson ES 339. After playing this Epiphone a few weeks I really can't imagine anything playing much better. I play and get caught away in the zone I call Dream Struck. It's simply an Awesome Guitar. That's partly because the team at Sweetwater take such care in setting every guitar up to be the best it… read more can be. I've bought a lot of guitars over the years and so far the ones I purchased from Sweetwater have been perfect, right out of the box.
