Assuming that the amp and the lead are in ideal working order, the underlying problem can frequently be caused by the guitar pickups. Here’s why.

The very first thing to state is that this doesn’t apply to every brand as the quality of some suppliers is still below par. Like numerous industries, as one company raises the bar and begins to produce superb quality at a reasonable price, it’s very tough for competing organisations to not follow suit. With factories in the Far East mass-making hardware for the guitar such as: guitar pickups, tuners, bridges and electrics at very cheap prices, this without doubt impacts the high street price.

Gibson Custom Guitars Launches Gibson ES-339 Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitar
Nashville, TN (PRWEB) October 2, 2007
Gibson Guitar, http://www.gibson.com/ , the world’s premier musical instrument manufacturer and leader in music technology, launched its newest electric guitar model today, the Gibson ES-339, a traditional semi-hollow body guitar in the alluring size of a Gibson Les Paul electric. This new electric guitar, which delivers the singing sustain and all of the characteristic nuances of the classic ES-335 Gibson semi-hollowbody guitar including the shape, resonant tone, hardware and more in the versatile size of a Les Paul, will be available exclusively through online guitar and musical instrument store Musician’s Friend http://www.musiciansfriend.com/ and its affiliates through the end of 2007.
The Gibson ES-339 electric guitar will prove to be a holiday gift favorite for beginning and amateur to professional and advanced guitar players of all types. Hailing from the Gibson Custom Shop in Memphis, TN, the hollow body guitar is incredibly versatile due to its unique design. Gibson’s original semi-hollowbody guitar was the famed ES-335, which was created back in 1958 to provide the perfect combination of solidbody and hollowbody features. With a solid maple block running down the center of its thin hollow body, the ES-335 provides the robust, resonant tone of a hollow body electric guitar while delivering the sustain and feedback resistance of a solid body. Gibson’s hybrid design became known as a semi-hollowbody guitar and remains a perennial favorite of players of nearly all styles of music.
While the ES-339 Video About the Gibson ES-339 features smaller body dimensions, it sacrifices none of the huge semi-hollowbody tone that makes the ES-335 universally appealing. The craftsmen at the Gibson Custom Shop in Memphis managed to shave several inches off the traditional semi-hollow body design while retaining perfect proportions that look classy and natural. All the features guitarists love about the ES-335 are present and accounted for on the ES-339 including a pair of ’57 Classic Humbucker pickups that deliver full-bodied tone with rich midrange and singing sustain, as well as tulip-head tuners, nickel guitar hardware, ABR-1 bridge, stop tailpiece, dot fingerboard inlays, and lacquer finish which make the guitars look like they came right out of 1958.
Gibson also included the mounting of the output jack on the side of the guitar instead of on top to keep the guitar cable out of the way. The 339 also sports Gibson’s new Memphis Tone Circuit, which preserves the high frequencies no matter where you adjust the guitar’s volume control. The Memphis Tone Circuit gives the 339 a beautiful, open tonal spectrum at any volume.
The ES-339 is available in two guitar neck sizes. The first, a 30/60 neck has the slim, wide feel of an early ’60s Gibson, with an extra .030-inches of depth–perfect for today’s faster guitar playing styles. The second, a heftier ’59 neck profile, is also available for guitarists who prefer a chunkier neck but still enjoy fast, smooth playing action.
The ES-339, comes with a hard shell guitar case, has an MSRP of $ 2,821, is offered in three vintage-style finishes–Antique Red, Antique Vintage Sunburst, and Light Caramel Burst and is only available through online guitar store Musician’s Friend and its affiliates including Guitar Center.com, Music123.com, Guitarsale.com and PrivateReserveGuitars.com.
