    Default Epiphone Ultra 339 vs. 339 Pro?

    I can't afford a Gibson 339 so I'm looking at the Epiphone Ultra 339 and the 339 Pro. Is the Ultra basically a 339 Pro with an onboard processor? Would I be better off getting the 339 Pro and then buying a separate effects processor? Or... is the Ultra 339 an overall better guitar? I'm just an arm-chair picker playing for fun but would appreciate any informed opinions. Thanks.

    Structurally they are pretty much identical, except for the "better" pickups in the 339 Ultra and early 339 PRO. The pickups in the PRO series have been changed after a short while. Some people consider the original Burstbucker better. I have the later Classic Pro or something and I like them.
