1968 Gibson ES-330 TD – Walnut – Long Neck
We present an all original 1968 Gibson ES-330 TD – in its original Walnut finish – long neck. Made in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Condition
Overall, this Gibson ES-330 TD is in excellent and clean condition with minor cosmetic play wear. This hollow-body has a fantastic laminated maple body and features a mahogany neck and a rosewood fingerboard with block inlays. It features a C-shaped neck profile that gains a bit of depth as you move into the higher registers of the fretboard and has the 1 9/16″ nut width. This is the “long neck” version of the 330 model, meaning the body and neck meets the same place as a 335. The original Walnut finish looks gorgeous and strong.
Originality
This fantastic ES-330 is 100% original throughout – just like it left the Kalamazoo factory back in 1968. The 2x original P-90 pickups sound great and are well-balanced. The original Kluson Deluxe double-line tuners are intact, and these tuners turn smoothly with their original white buttons. The bridge is the original chrome ABR-1 Tune-o-Matic with chrome trapeze tailpiece as well as the chrome pickup covers. The 4x original witch hat knobs turns smoothly and are all intact.
Pickups and the electronics/wiring remain untouched and intact, with no broken solder joints, no re-wound pickups. All original and correct.
Comes complete with the original Gibson hardshell case with yellow interior. Latches and handle are in perfect working order. Comes with a vintage strap.
