Semihollow electric guitar, Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers, LockTone Tune-o-Matic, Grover Rotomatic, Kalamazoo headstock, Vintag... Semi-hollow electric guitar from the Inspired by Gibson collection with Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers and LockTone hardware Authentic shaping and classic semi-hollow sounds are the hallmark of the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson ES-339 Vintage Sunburst. This more compact and lighter sister of the famous ES-335 follows the traditional design guidelines of the Gibson model and uses a maple laminate body with surrounding cream binding and centre block to minimise the feedback susceptibility of the semi-resonance construction even at high gain levels. A hand-adjusted Rounded C mahogany neck brings out the proven ES playing feel in all registers of the 22-fret Indian Laurel fretboard, whereas two Epiphone Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers on the neck and bridge call up the complete sound palette of the famous semi-hollow and evoke present PAF character. The resonant combination of LockTone Tune-o-Matic and Stopbar forms the bridge construction, while genuine Grover Rotomatic tuners on the headstock ensure the right tuning. The Epiphone ES-339 from the Inspired by Gibson collection convinces with its official dimensions, the classic Kalamazoo headstock and excellent sounding Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers. Alnico Classic PRO humbucker & CTS electronics The two Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers resemble the classic recipe of the first Gibson humbuckers from the 1950s. Armed with Alnico magnets, these humbuckers get the best out of their respective positions and convince with a well-balanced sound, present mids and a moderate output, which allows both humbuckers to show off their strengths for both articulate cleans and hotter sounds of rock and metal. Of course, the electronics follow the high sound standards and are composed of separate volume and tone controls from the US electronics specialist CTS. Finest hardware components For a particularly resonant sound transmission, the Epiphone Inspired by Gibson ES-339 Vintage Sunburst features the proven combination of a LockTone Tune-o-Matic bridge and a LockTone Stopbar. The bridge pin with locking function provides additional stability and a better connection to the body, giving the sound image an improved response. In addition, a nut made of Graph Tech NuBone and six Grover Rotomatic tuners are used. These ensure not only precise and reliable tuning results, but also the classic look in combination with the authentic Kalamazoo headstock and traditional kidney wings.
