1962 Gibson ES-330TD, Sunburst + HSC

Cool spec, block inlay/black dog ear P90 ES-330 finish in sunburst. A very good overall example with a killer neck!
Successor to the ES-225, the ES-330 was introduced in 1959 - a model that bridged the gap between the new centre block guitars and Gibson’s classic archtops of the previous decades. The 17-fret neck to body join and lack of centre block made for a lightweight more comfortable feeling guitar for many, and the P90 pickups and fully hollow body gave a different tonal character that lent itself well to jazz and blues as demonstrated perfectly by the likes of Grant Green and BB King.
This one has had a couple of hardware changes - the bridge is a later Chrome/wired repro with brass saddles, the raised diamond tailpiece has been replaced with a different style trapeze, and the tuners are aged repros. The sunburst finish has aged nicely and shows some very fine delicate lacquer checking. The binding has yellowed as expected and the headstock has had some minor touchup around the edges and face. 
Pots and wiring appear correct, complete with 2 original black beauty capacitors. The dog ear P-90’s are original, each having a strong output and balance between them. The tone has punch and warmth with a nice thickness to the sound. Overall this is one of the nicer sounding examples we’ve had, and with a couple of changes to keep the price down this is an excellent buy! Comes with a non-original hard case.
