Some of you have seen my beautiful '04 Gibson ES-335 Dot Reissue:
Well, good old Santa Claus and the Stork have combined this year to bring her a little brother:
It's an '08 Antique Vintage Sunburst ES-339...... a fantastic little guitar that's a knockout to play!

+1 one on the request for a report. I've also been interested in how it sounds compared to it's predecessor the 336, which is a solid block of mahogany routed by a CNC and capped with a solid maple top. These are also very nice to play and I suspect a little darker than the 339 which is of laminates on the top, sides and back with a center block much like your 335. Really nice looking guitars Aitch....congratulations! Glad the Peterson tuner worked out for you.
