2003 History Japan (by Fujigen) ZMS-CFS ES-339 Semi-Hollowbody (Brown Sunburst)

2003 History Japan (by Fujigen) ZMS-CFS ES-339 Semi-Hollowbody (Brown Sunburst)Made by the Fujigen factory (the place that made Japanese Fender models for over a decade) for distribution by the Shimamura stores in Japan only, History models were mostly high end using exotic woods and quality constructions. The ZMS was made in 2003 and predates the Gibson ES 339. Designed to bring the warmth of an ES 335 to a more compact playing experience, it's made with a maple top with a mahogany back and center block (weighs 3. 3kg's).

The original Gotoh tuners and Fernandes branded bridge keep it tuned and stable
