Guitar of the Day: Gibson Custom Shop ES-339 Cherry | Norman's Rare Guitars

[@seanzinger]

I can rarely sit through a whole video these days with so much out there to click on. But this was truly amazing.

[@donhancock1721]

Perfect match for Lemmo's playing. Who's buying this one for him?

[@motivationeveryday1205]

Me

[@jonbon7219]

Full metal jacket

[@cminty6805]

About the most beautiful guitar playing I've ever heard. You're one of my favourite artists of all time Lemmo. This is much more than a guitar demo.

[@mr5811]

best addition to Guitar of the Day yet: outro solos.

[@jacobnemeth7634]

Lemmo’s playing is surreal. I don’t know how else to describe it

[@j.p.roofer3407]

These 339s are magical. I bought one about a month ago and I’m so happy with it.

[@thomasnissen1402]

Lemmo, congrats on the new guitar. You deserve it, fully. Be well friend, lots of love from Denmark!

[@mickkraviz]

lemmo really is a cool influence, his rhythmic playing is such a pleasure

[@keepyourmoneytricks2610]

First two segments of this it sounds like the guitar is breathing. Incredible player Lemmo. Love the daily mood enhancing videos you put out.

[@weatherboy1551]

Cant seem to pick up my jaw off the floor. That first part had me shattered. Absolutely beautiful, Lemmo!

[@CNFir-fs6zs]

Sounds nice, like a 335 but smaller body and sound. Susan loves Lemmo. Lemmo loves guitars. Guitars loves Norm And Jen loves Lemo, Like a friend

[@localguy8]

This sounds like an early 60’s song

[@musicfan8253]

Great playing Michael, as usual. And congrats again on that amazing gift from Susan.

[@jasonelliott3162]

Gorgeous playing. Gorgeous guitar too

[@schalksteyn9594]

I think there are a few guys who should open for Lemmo on his show, world class and above, not many can say they match this guitar Wizard. Love to "Whooo hoo" Jen, they make one "hell of a" duo. Love and blessings from Kruger Park in SA, they say here in SA....it's moosh in the bush.😁😁

[@saint6563]

One of the most beautiful electric guitar tones I've ever heard. Thanks!

[@ramencurry6672]

It’s a great guitar. Under rated too

[@DNeil5]

Amazing again! You are a true master artist. Beautiful playing!

[@3113_records]

Lovely playing as always.

[@PJ-jz5fm]

Great explanation of the ES series! I don’t know if you will see this comment Michael, but Bill Nelson of BeBop Deluxe (UK 70’s)was an ES345 player and obtained some of the best tones I have ever heard. “Crying to the Sky” on Sunburst Finish in particular will give any guitarist the shivers! Thank you for your great channel !

[@benink5690]

Best guitar work I've heard on KZbin in a while

[@forcytek1]

Fantastic❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@shayeasy]

that lower volume groove at the end was just perfect

[@jirwinelportal]

Michael you are making it sound like there are 5 instruments playing. Absolutely beautiful. So happy I got a 339 from Norman but now I probably need one with a Bigsby, too!

[@gilstanfill1011]

Enjoy your musicianship!!! I'm amazed every time I ketch one of your workshop videos. 🤟💙☯️

[@glarrymoreme]

That guitar is ideal, great sounding and so versatile. Fantastic playing again

[@jackorbit7258]

I really like that playing, Lemmo.

[@freddaniel5099]

Sounds pretty awesome once Michael wakes the guitar up ~10:20 or so. From there forward it rocks! 👍

[@jasonezzell6901]

Lemmo, you slay me. Also now I have to buy a 339.

[@MattSChewbacca]

Congrats Michael, you are a great player with great diversity and in my opinion very deserving, you have the ear and the ability.

[@changchikang5603]

Feel like in the paradise~ amazing tone and music with the gear.

[@el0blaino]

That sounded SO GOOD!!!! Thank you!

[@flinchey6962]

Love mine my main guitar at the moment, purchased my 07 339 for $1500 they’ve seen to have shot up a in price a bit really a remarkable guitar no issues

[@GypsyLane]

As always, great playing Lemmo! Picked up your album…listened to it on my recent vacation in Utah. Outstanding!

[@henkkman]

Damn it, Lemmo did it again! 😅. Beautiful playing!

[@stevelaferney3579]

Awesome and then some. Thanks Mike. What playing on what a guitar! I want a 339 just send it right over. Droool! I wish. Later maybe.

[@localguy8]

Thanks for explaining the ES differences 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️

[@frankswildyear]

Beautiful picking

[@DheadslayinG]

Im guessing the first playthrough is what plays at the gates of heaven

[@ganaorganador]

Michael, your playing is awesome! So much mood.

[@novanut1964]

beautiful sounds and playing, good video

[@fabrizio.24]

That's a incredible guitar! Incredible color and sound!!! 🤘

[@alfonzothomas3587]

That may be some of the best picking I ever heard!!

[@Evy-1988]

wow, that is a beautiful composition

[@guitarboix5606]

I love how he plays

[@chayseinderrieden3883]

These are my all time favorite guitars. I wish I never sold mine 😪

[@soofitnsexy]

duhhhh......buy another theres a ton out there

[@QuickCygan]

Damn I love that first tune, I think you've already played it on a 12 string in a diffrent video. Great chords. :)

[@Michael777Simmons]

Well done. Awesome thanks 😊

[@BaconatorJames]

I bought a new Gibson ES-339 ('Satin' black, kind of entry-level) 2yrs ago & it's the best sounding guitar I own (I really love '57 humbuckers). I'm still pretty new to guitar, only started playing in early 2018. I would appreciate any commenters' advice on why, if money were not an issue, would anyone benefit in getting a 'figured' ES-339? A figured 339 is definitely prettier & worth more for resale, but are there any tonal/weight-distribution things to note? I'm in love with the compact size of the 339 vs the 335 & part of the reason I got it is because it's much more comfortable than a Les Paul & I can't tell the difference tonally. I bought an Epiphone ES-339 a few months before the Gibson to be sure I knew what I was getting, since I'd have to buy the Gibson without playing it first. I've got a "Les Trem II" installed & a roller-bridge & Graphtech XL nut, so it surprisingly stays in tune.

[@davewheel8974]

Great demo and playing, you've given me some cool ideas!

[@triniep82]

I love that first song on the neck pickup. Bits of Bach in there!

[@brendanbeirne2]

wow -- your playing is unreal!

[@tonya4157]

Awesome! Man I love that guitar. Just Awesome.

[@benink5690]

God that's so pretty. K want a lesson on that. That reverb/delay/Modulation is amazing sounding DAMN!!!

[@stancoleshill8925]

I always enjoy running across a new guitarist. I really like your style Mike. Oh and PS. I just bought a 339 just last week !

[@Followyourlight420]

My next purchase!!

[@michaelhotz7118]

Beautiful

[@davidj6008]

Love It! Because of course I would Every tone from anywhere, at anytime Have a Sunburst hardtail Monster Also, great demo 😁👍

[@benink5690]

What reverb/modulation is that? Sounded like a part from Zelda. Beautiful

[@TheFuckingVicious]

Sounds like a shimmer reverb. Example: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXazk4amja5gm8k

[@КириллЛисивец-у1з]

wow! awesome arpeggios!

[@paul2602]

So nice, as always.

[@marklee_702]

Bonamassa needs to invite Lemmo to open for him. 😎

[@j_laf9575]

Someone make this happen

[@mickkraviz]

hell yeah

[@risinggio8822]

Killed it

[@hughiehendrixx4811]

God bless you all. 🙏🏽❤✌🏾

[@jimwolf8121]

Great Demo! You get a lot out of that 339.

[@MR-wp5dz]

Holy shit, was completely to be this moved by a guitar demo. damn dude!

[@SuperHansen80]

Lemmo + Mono guitars = 🤯

[@musicl0ver543]

I just bought the epi 339 and love it but now wished I’d bought the Gibson

[@ADP72]

Right hand !!!! Dang GUY !!

[@ardiris2715]

Hmm, is Lemmo planning on touring soon?

[@airtechmech6681]

I want that guitar! I could trade in my Epi ES-339 maybe. I do really like it, though and I certainly can't play it like you do.

[@jluther1755]

What no one wanted to buy this guitar for you Lemmo 👍

[@timhallas4275]

Sweet tones. Your right, it is a clearer more defined tone than a 335 . I think I want to build one.

[@davids9192]

Norm definitely traded up when he retired Agnesi and gave Lemmo his opportunity.

[@Ron_Padgett]

lol

[@mattrogers1946]

🙄

[@alv9815]

The 336 is totally different than the 339. The 336 is basically a Les Paul with F holes. The body is a solid piece of Mahogany

[@bizky75]

Beautiful guitar 🤙🏼

[@beercheersrccrawlers]

What do you guys think about a 340 NTD? White with some binding..it's pretty sweet.

[@craigthomson3621]

I have a lefty Gibson ES-339 and I love it. Would like a lefty fully hollow ES-390 but I don’t think they exist (I guess the closest would be a lefty Collins I-30).

[@Zackarysmackary]

Dude is killer

[@marshallkohlhaas80]

Dang dude you didnt have to go an do that!!!!!!!! NYCE!!!!!!

[@tlister67]

I have this guitar without the bigsby. Mine has a serial starting with CS made in 2008 IIRC. Custom shop cert and case. They had some troubles with fingerboard being poorly finished during that time, it was a forum topic back then. Plays and sounds great though.

[@Toraboramusic]

How much is the Custom Shop 339 worth now in USD?

[@tlister67]

Toraboramusic Not sure, I saw one for around $2300 in a shop that had a pickup swap.

[@jeananatole7340]

Excellent game! but impossible to find this guitar for sale

[@curtisnewton895]

cute lovely guitar

[@jasemaxable]

A rockn Lemmo. Yes

[@keomo]

3:36 Zelda fairy!!

[@davywalter]

Also appreciate the 10 Years After refs!!

[@bluehazeboy]

You guys ought to try an es les Paul,

[@angelsolanot8053]

I don't know why, you've always evoked / reminded me of Mick Taylor.

[@glenkepic3208]

I can dig this. Nearly 10 years ago, i swing by the SM GC for the heck of it. See a used Peavey Vypyr 15 for $49.00. Look for a guitar,,,,Black sparkle finish Epi 339. Always loved the concept of a shrunken 335 but this was sorta blingy (pearloid binding,too). Played great. Bought the amp.

[@jeffmansfield914]

Holy cow! Lemmo ate the cake from Alice in Wonderland before playing that 335! 😳 😉

[@TheBotsra]

God Bless Lemmo your wonderful. I hope you are doing some studio work. I'd hire you but I'm poor

[@littledaddi3]

First song is an ocarina of time influence so hard lol

[@JR-tu3sm]

Track ID please !!??? The first song is amazing

[@soundinthesky96]

wow i've never respected 339s, but now not only do i want one i think i might even prefer the sound to a 335

[@B-leafer]

Could do a shootout between a Gibson es 339 vs. Gibson cs 336??

[@geraldhills41]

Pity we couldn't hear it without all that reverb !

[@tymeryder7264]

Grand guitar

[@dantepalomba7356]

B5 on a 339? Interesting. Is that the best way to go?

[@xaviervermeulen8484]

The first part was so smooth, I thought you were wearing a Gojira band's tee... I found that funny the contradiction between the band and the smoothy playing. I'm disappointed now ^^

[@metal123h]

Hope they stick with this format of Brandon doing the description and Lemmo the playing

[@macleanberry5638]

What is that first song he played?

[@mikelanzafame3401]

I am wondering as well!

[@alancastellon9225]

Zelda I think

[@mikelanzafame3401]

What the heck is Zelda

[@mickkraviz]

@@mikelanzafame3401 The Legend of Zelda is a high fantasy action-adventure video game franchise created by Japanese game designers Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka. It is primarily developed and published by Nintendo, although some portable installments and re-releases have been outsourced to Capcom, Vanpool, and Grezzo.
