Gibson ES-330 Hollowbody Electric Guitar, Tobacco Sunburst
As a true companion of an instrument, the Gibson ES-330 fulfills a lead role on a stage, in the studio, or even on a couch. A guitar ready for anything and to take just about anywhere, this hollowbody meets high Gibson standards for exceptional playability and sound in any scenario. Wrapped in a simply radiant finish and lined with heaps of tonal muscle, this ES-330 clocks in to take on any tonal venture.
The ES-330 starts out primarily with a double-cutaway body made from three-ply poplar and maple. This classic construction makes for a resonant instrument that is acoustically impressive right out of the case. Take this hollowbody for some strums and hear the pristine sounds bloom with an acoustically impressive tone. Single-ply cream binding lines this guitar’s top, back, and fingerboard for some accentuation of the body shape and highlighted color. Extending from this three-ply body is a mahogany neck formed in a Rounded “C” profile. In hand, this neck offers an easy grip as it moves from lower to higher registers – effortlessly comfortable and playable. An Indian rosewood fingerboard aligns with the neck with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets. Across the fingers, this board is streamlined and smooth for articulate fretting and easy chords.
Audibly, this hollowbody classic comes to life with two Dogear P-90 pickups. These two P-90 beauties play with a respectable kick and can roll through classy, crystalline cleans to charming, overdriven bites when pushed. The electronic versatility this guitar displays is already impressive, but it only goes further and glows brighter with hand-wired 500k potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors for high-fidelity tonality right off the bat. Completely, this ES-330 is a marvel of sound across the entire spectrum. Acoustically or plugged in, this guitar shines.
The musical experience of the 330 only keeps rolling through its quality hardware specifications. A Graph Tech nut lands at the end of the rosewood board to ground strings stably for sturdy intonation. Six Vintage Deluxe tuning machines adorn the headstock to assure accessibility in string changes and ensure stability in tuning. At the opposite end of the scale length, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge lands with a Trapeze tailpiece to tie the intonation experience together and send off this guitar in style. A Gibson hardshell case comes included with this hollowbody to travel in style and security.
As one of Gibson’s most well-loved hollowbodies, the ES-330 brings to life a different side of the Gibson electric experience for any player to get carried away with – and rightly so!
