Weight # 6 LBS 5 OZFor a guitar to take just about anywhere, the Gibson ES-330 plays starring roles onstage, in the studio, and on the couch. A true companion of a guitar with a reputation for exceptional sound and playability in any scenario, the ES-330 clocks in to meet any musical task. Decked out in a radiant finish and loaded with heaps of tonal muscle, this hollowbody fulfills high Gibson standards for playing and sound quality.
The ES-330 comes together first with a double-cutaway body made from three-ply maple and poplar. This classic construction makes for a resonant instrument that is impressive acoustically right out of the case. Take some strums on this 330 and hear the sweet sounds bloom with an acoustically impressive tone. Single-ply cream binding wraps 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 a solid grip as it moves from lower to higher registers – effortlessly playable and comfortable. An Indian rosewood fingerboard meets up with the neck with twenty-two Medium Jumbo frets. Across the fingers, this board is smooth and streamlined for articulate fretting and easy chords.
Sonically, this hollowbody classic comes to life with two Dogear P-90 pickups. These pickups play with a clean kick that can roll through classy, crystalline cleans to charming, overdriven bites when pushed. The electronic versatility this guitar displays is already impressive, but only glows brighter with hand-wired 500k potentiometers and Orange Drop capacitors for high-fidelity sounds right off the bat. Totally, this ES-330 is a marvel of sound across the entire spectrum. Acoustically or plugged in, this guitar shines.
The experience of the 330 only keeps rolling through quality hardware specifications. A Graph Tech nut lands at the end of the rosewood board to ground strings stably for solid intonation. Six Vintage Deluxe tuning machines line the headstock to assist in quick string changes and ensure stability in tuning. At the opposite end of the scale, 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!
