Does anyone else make a guitar like a Gibson ES 339? SIZE is most important

New or old. . . .

Thanks

Matsumoku made a small body semi-hollow called the Entertainer under their Vantage brand. I've only seen pics though but I'd like to get my hands on one.

thanks for the replies. . . .

anything else out there?

the 339 is very tempting. have to get my hands under those necks some more to see which i prefer. . either way, it seems like a good value for a gibson. .

Maybe the best value in their lineup, and it screams.

Just do it. Thank me later.

i AM going to do it.
went to play guitars today.
the 335 is still too big for me . . . played a sweet one today though.
also played the $850 les paul with p-90s. that's a sick deal of a guitar. SICK price. great guitar.
they didn't have any 339s.
i'm afraid i'm going to have to break down and go for the GC experience. i NEED to play both necks.
. . . . and i'm going for vintage burst :-D

Make sure you whip yourself up a GC coupon.

Or trade in a hamster wheel or something..

There's the 336...

If I was in the market for a 339, I wouldn't be able to resist that pelham blue one that's in the emporium right now.

Mike,

I've had a couple 339s and they are magical imo. The Heritage's specs seem interesting, but damn is it ugly!

i really really love my 336. very different tones though due to the maple versus laminate.
