The Gibson ES-333 is a semi hollow body electric guitar made by Gibson Guitar Corporation.

The ES-333 is quite similar to the Gibson ES-335, but varies from the ES-335 in the following ways:

  • The finish is a thin satin finish, versus the ES-335's thicker full gloss finish.
  • The headstock has a silkscreen Gibson logo, versus the ES-335's inlaid pearloid logo.
  • The headstock has no further decorative inlay, versus the ES-335's "crown" headstock inlay.
  • The pickups are Gibson type 490R and 498T, versus the ES-335's Gibson 57 Classic pickups.
  • The back of the body has an access cover for the electronics, versus the solid rear of the ES-335.

The body is made of arched, laminated wood, with the exterior and interior laminations being made of maple.[2] There is a maple central core in the body, to which the top and bottom, and neck are attached. The neck is one piece of mahogany, with a rosewood fingerboard and pearloid dot markers. The hardware is nickel-plated. As delivered by Gibson, the ES-333 had no pickup covers, nor pickguard, and came with black "speed" knobs. Switch tip color was alternately black or creme. The truss rod cover is unadorned, and the headstock overlay is the fibre material used on many contemporary Gibson models.



Note: This is a vintage instrument in perfect working order. Please review or ask for more pictures before buying it. No refunds will be accepted
