Hey guys, what about a ES-339 kit or is one available as a custom order? Mahogany or maple body with a veneer top would be nice too. Hmm..starting to melt with the ideas!

hey IRL what's the difference between a ES-339 and ES-335 ? The ES-1G is based on the ES-335 model.
I'd flick Ads an email and ask if a custom order is possible.
Woks, 339 is a smaller body.

ah ok cheers Pabs encyclopedia knowledge of axes hahha
The 339 is a smaller body version of the 335. Another idea could be a ES Les Paul kit (a semi hollow body les paul with f holes)
Sorry...just saw the ESV2 kit. Disregard that last comment about the ES Les Paul
That's the one but I don't want the cat included.
You'd probably have to live with basswood ply rather than maple or mahogany. But you should end up with a reasonable front and rear grain pattern if my ES-3 is anything to go by. Supposed to be all basswood but the front and back had a good figure on it. But a flame maple veneer for the top of a 339 style is certainly possible.
Simon, I can live with basswood as my TL-1Q has a great tone to it and it would probably add a bit of warmth to it. But it's always nice to dream, especially when it comes to a guitar.
Bass wood gets a bad rap sometimes, but really I cannot fault the tone. sure its different from say mahogany but I can't say that I haven't liked the tone I get from a basswood solid body or from a hollowbody.
