1964 Gibson ES-330TD, USED
The 1964 Gibson ES-330TD is a classic hollow-body electric guitar, known for its warm, resonant tone and vintage appeal. With its fully hollow thinline body constructed from laminated maple, this guitar offers a rich acoustic character with excellent responsiveness, making it a favourite among jazz, blues, and rock players. The original sunburst or natural finish, combined with cream binding and a bound rosewood fingerboard, enhances its timeless aesthetic.
Equipped with original tone pots and sought-after bumblebee capacitors, this ES-330TD retains much of its vintage circuitry, ensuring an authentic 1960s tone. The volume pots were replaced in the late '70s, though they still complement the guitar’s tonal integrity. The two original Gibson P-90 pickups provide a warm, articulate sound with a dynamic response, excelling in both clean and overdriven settings. Whether you're playing soft jazz chords or gritty blues leads, this guitar delivers unparalleled vintage tone.
This particular model has been fitted with '60s reissue Gibson Kluson tuners, maintaining its period-correct look while ensuring stable tuning performance. With a comfortable, fast-playing mahogany neck and a 24.75-inch scale length, the ES-330TD offers exceptional playability. Lightweight and resonant, this guitar embodies the golden era of Gibson craftsmanship, making it a prized instrument for collectors and players alike.
