Seriously every review ever should be like this! They even added bass and drums to give us some idea how these guitars sound in the mix. Great job guys!!
Guitar review with full band is the best.

I absolutely love the sound of the ES339, will definitely be buying that one
The 339 has the most beautiful finish here. And the output jack not being on the top and rather being on the side is better.
Yes! Just what I need. An affordable, good ES 335. Thanks Epiphone and Thomann. Great video.
I was on the fence going insane over which one to get (only ever played strat style guitars, but I want more of that Britpop/psych rock feel so I was looking for a semi hollow)…… I ultimately went with the 339… it just felt right…. In fact it feels so right that I wonder how I ever lived without it. I absolutely LOVE the 339!!
Well done! More of such jams please, they speak for themselves about the products.
Epiphone have really impressed me this year I have a les paul and love it its as good as any other guitar I have owned if not better.
Love the tone, love the musicians & the feeling, love the ballad rythm, love the es335 cherry ... Ok... I'm ordering right now.

I played on both epiphone 335 and 339 great sounding affordable guitars. Great playing like the sound you guys get out of them.
Great solo!! I've only been playing guitar for 7 months and already have three guitars 🙈 a mexican player strat, a baja tele and a cheap Ibanez acoustic. I don't have anything with humbuckers on and though I've promised myself not to get anything else until i reach an intermediate level.... that 335 is insisting that i should try it! 😬

@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses - yeah thanks! i feel the 335 has a lot of aspects to it that are totally different to what I'm so far used to. The semi-hollow body, the larger body shape, the shorter scale length, the humbucker pickups and darker tone..... and when my rational mind tells me I don't yet deserve another guitar i hear another voice saying "think how good it'll look hanging on your wall! What piece of art could you get for that price!" 🙈

Nice choices. The 335 would probably be a good addition. For my tastes, a Baja tele and a 335 or 339 would be the ideal combination. I also have an Ibanez style string acoustic that sounds way better than the price would suggest.

Don't be ashamed. The amount of guitars you have does not have to reflect how long you've been playing or how good you are, just how much you can spend and how tolerant is your wife
I have an 339, but the 335 have that iconic tone, very particular sound. Love it!
I dream of having an Epi 339... at last they made one!
I just bought the 339. It’s fantastic. Great video 👍
I bought the 339 - loving it! Cherry Red 🎯
Guys, this was flipping awesome. These new epis are something else 👍, great new style of vid
I had a chance to spend an afternoon playing the 335 and 339 side by side. Both were very playable(full disclosure: I usually play a strat). But what struck me was that that 339 is not just a miniaturized 335. That was sorta what I was expecting. The 335 had a much richer hollow body tone. While the 339 had a much tighter Les Paul sound without going all the way to a Les Paul. It was a nice compromise between the 2. The 339 feels heavier until you hold them both one after the other. Not much difference. I had also heard complaints about access to the upper register being more difficult on the 339. I didn't find this too be the case at all. Both the 335 and 339 had excellent access to the higher frets. Which one is better? That's an apples and oranges question. The 339 really is it's own guitar and holds it's own when compared to the 335. Having said all this, however, I think the 335 is the one I would choose. Of course if you want something to shred with I wouldn't suggest either.

That's a good point. I have both of these models and love both of them, but the Epi 339 is closer to a Les Paul or an SG in sound than it is to a 335, in my opinion. It's a lot "punchier" and in your face. I do prefer the neck pickup sound on the 339 though.
No words said it all! Great job! Lovely guitars!

Both guitars sound great. I was thinking about buying the es 335 figured from Epiphone now I may end up getting the 339 too!
It doesn't matter how many guitars you own, everybody needs more and price wise these look tasty. I wonder what the quality of these are like over the long haul compared to recent Gretsch's? 😯

I have es 339 and I'm so happy .. this is a good guitar .
This so so good old style blues ballad. Wow!!
Beautiful guitars and playing. I have an Aria Pro ll TA40, love it. I was playing through the Matchless 30 on my Axe FX ll, sounded great.
The headstock and neck look superb. Nicely dressed with the crown logo and white binding. Nothing fancy. Realy sets the body off, like youre not always looking at the WHITE inlays on the fretboard. Great session and guitar.
Super!!! Thanks!
Nothing against the 335, but the 339 sounds fantastic and it’s easier to manage size makes it easier to use on the live stage.

I tried a 335 style Hagstrom once and despite I loved the tone... The guitar felt too big. It happens the same with dreadnoughts. The 339 is a nice alternative.
New headstock looks beautiful!!
Very nice guitar and playing! I will be buying the new Epiphone ES-335 when it hits the stocks..
I have both of these and love them. The 339 is as if the 335 and a Les Paul had an offspring. I am going to have to get a wound G for the 339 though.
Superb playing Kris and loved the tone of the 335 .
Nice, very nice playing. Sharp guitars!!!
Oh man... BEAUTIFUL!! I LOVE MY EPI 339
very nice playing guys ... really capture the Mayer sound!
Such good price too! Never wanted the dot or pro cause it didn’t really look better to me. But this is fantastic!!
Thank you for doing John Mayer!

I really love my 339. I can play jazz like joe pass. Then i pull the knob so it vexome single coil and jamming like albert king. Then i push the knob again and crank the distortion so i can headbang to thrash metal. Actually this jazzy guitar can play metal agressively.
Yes ... both of them please. No no ... gift wrapping not required!
which amp is the es339 pluged into ?
I play always this song as rhythm guitar, my son plays a lot of JM as a solo guitar but never studied this wonderful song. He is looking for a ES-335.....
