Epiphone Limited Edition ES-339 P-90 PRO (Ebony)

Epiphone Limited Edition ES-339 P-90 PRO (Ebony) Overview

Epiphone's new Ltd. Ed. ES-339 P-90 PRO is a modern guitar with roots firmly planted in Epiphone's classic era when Epi's famed Kalamazoo factory produced rock's most legendary instruments in the late 50s and 60s. Featuring a reduced size ES-style body and Epiphone's new P-90R PROGäó "soapbar" pickups, the new ES-339 P-90 PRO semi-hollowbody turns back the clock while breaking new ground in sound and style.

First introduced in the late '50s, the original ES series became an instant rock classic that brought the feel and look of an archtop to a generation of players who had grown up playing solid body guitars like the Les Paul. But for some, ES-style archtops felt too bulky to play on stage or in the studio. Now, the new ES-339 P-90 PRO is the perfect remedy featuring smaller body dimensions while still retaining the bell-like tone the ES series is famous for. And just like Epi's nouveau classic ProBuckerGäó humbuckers, the new P-90 PROGäó "soapbar" pickups are a stunning recreation of the first generation of handwound P-90s which many consider the best single coil pickup ever made.

The Epiphone Ltd. Ed. ES-339 P-90 PRO features a reduced size laminated maple body with a solid center block like original ES-style classics and a black pickguard with metal "E" insignia. The Mahogany SlimTaperGäó "D" profile 24.75" scale neck has 22 medium jumbo frets and is hand-set and glued with a mortise and tenon neck joint with TitebondGäó glue. The 12" radius neck features a rosewood fingerboard with pearloid inlays and a 1.68" nut. Single-ply cream binding on the fingerboard and body completes the classic look.

The Ltd. Ed. ES-339 P-90 PRO features Epiphone's new P-90R PROGäó "soapbar" pickup, a true recreation of the first generation of P-90 pickups found in Les Pauls. Epiphone P-90R PROGäó single coil pickups are individually voiced for rhythm and lead and provide a huge variety of sound choices for the modern guitarist. For those used to carrying two or three guitars to get all their favourite sounds, the new Ltd. Ed. ES-339
P-90 may be all you'll ever need to take to a gig from now on. Epiphone's guaranteed electronics also include standard controls for each pickup's volume and tone with smooth black tophats with metal inserts, a tough 3-way toggle switch, and an all-metal heavy duty Epiphone 1/4" output jack that gives you a lifetime of worry-free use. The Ltd. Ed. ES-339 P-90 PRO also features rock-solid hardware including Epiphone's LockToneGäó Tune-o-matic bridge and Stopbar tailpiece along with "Deluxe" tuners with tulip style buttons.
