Gibson ES-330 Hollowbody Guitar - Sixties Cherry
products.product.pickup_availability.unavailable
Some instruments don't just make music — they bend time and space. The Interstellar Tone Traveler discovered this firsthand the moment the Gibson USA ES-330 in Sixties Cherry came into orbit. Featherlight at just 6 lbs 6 oz, this fully hollow 3-ply maple/poplar/maple thinline body is sonically massive — its airy construction, spruce bracing, trapeze tailpiece, and deep-set long tenon neck creating a naturally resonant platform that feels alive in your hands. Unplugged, it hums with warm, woody overtones like a signal drifting in from a distant era. Finished in glowing Sixties Cherry gloss nitrocellulose with cream binding and a black 5-ply pickguard, it radiates pure vintage orbit energy that no solidbody can replicate. A Rounded "C" mahogany neck flows into a rosewood fretboard with acrylic small block inlays, 22 medium jumbo frets, and a 12" radius — effortlessly playable whether you're strumming jangly first-position chords or bending notes into the stratosphere.
At the heart of this spacecraft: a pair of hand-wired Dogear P-90 pickups wired to 500k potentiometers and Orange Drop® capacitors, delivering glassy, shimmering detail wrapped in warm, harmonically rich snarl. A Graph Tech® nut at 1.7", an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, and Vintage Deluxe tuners with white buttons keep tuning locked in precisely across its 24.75" scale. Yes — it's fully hollow, and at high gain it will talk back. But with a little finesse, it sustains and blooms in ways solidbodies simply can't touch. The feedback becomes part of the music — organic, expressive, alive. From blues and Americana to 60s pop, jazz, country, and rock, the ES-330 moves effortlessly across any sonic galaxy. It's not just a guitar — it's a frequency portal back to the golden age of tone, reborn for modern explorers. Plug in. Drift outward. Let it sing.
