Description

This 1961 Gibson ES-330 in Cherry has held up remarkably well, with a rich finish that’s developed beautiful checking across the top and back. It’s almost entirely original, with the lone exception being a replaced nut—everything else, down to the plastics and electronics, looks right. The neck is the slim early ’60s carve but with a standard nut width, making it quick without feeling too narrow. The P-90s have that dry, woody snap these guitars are known for, with plenty of warmth when you roll the tone back. A clean, excellent example from a sweet spot in Gibson’s vintage thinline lineup. Comes with the original hardshell case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
