Frequently Asked Questions
It's similar, but the center block on the 339 tames some of the hollowness, resulting in a tighter, more focused sound, and a bit more sustain.
It's a subtle refinement – a bit thinner and more rounded than the '50s profile, making it feel exceptionally smooth and easy to play, especially for faster playing styles.
No, the finish is purely cosmetic; it’s a nitrocellulose lacquer applied over the flamed maple, and doesn't impact the guitar’s sonic characteristics.
