Gibson ES-330TD in sunburst from 1960, (R35** FON stamp). It's had a refret but otherwise all original, not even the typical strap button added. In excellent condition, it's retained its 3 tone sunburst remarkably well with fine checking throughout. Weighs in at 2.55kg/5.62lbs.

There’s evidence of some kind of work on the back of the headstock, impossible to tell if it's just cosmetic or a repair of some kind but no sign of any break. It’s been done to a very high standard but does show up under blacklight, see photos.

It has the slimmer D shaped neck consistent with the early 60's, 20.1mm/0.79" at the 1st fret and 22.3mm/0.88" at the 12th fret. Width at the nut measures 43.3mm/1.70". The frets are in great shape with plenty of life left. Beautiful clean dark rosewood fingerboard with little wear. The neck is also very clean with plenty of adjustment both ways on the truss rod. Pickups are nicely balanced measuring 7.6K on the neck and 8.0K Ohms on the bridge.

Beautiful playing instrument, perfect neck angle and a strong acoustic projection from the old wood. No original case - will ship with a modern Crossrock tweed case. Please ask if you need to see something I’ve not captured. Better still, please come and give it a try, I’m based in central London.

Will ship worldwide - international buyers please contact me first for a more accurate shipping quote.
