About this listing
1966 Gibson Trini Lopez StandardThis all original 1966 made in Kalamazoo, Michigan Trini comes in a lacquered Cherry Finish, with a laminated maple body, mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard.The Trini Lopez Standard is anything but standard, adding a funky cosmetic edge to the more common design of the Gibson ES-335. The diamond shaped f-holes and position markers give the guitar a stylish attitude, and are a perfect match for the single-sided headstock. Did you know this headstock on a Gibson predates the Firebird? The carries the "Trini Lopez Model" designation, with a couple of extra diamonds. This example has the typical 1966 features including chrome-plated hardware, nylon Tune-O-Matic saddles, enclosed strip Kluson tuners and the "silver capped" clear plastic knobs along with the engraved rosewood-and-plastic tailpiece insert. The pickups are the same chrome-plated Patent Number Humbuckers used by the entire ES-335 family, with the same wiring rig. While not unusually rare, the Trini Lopez standard shipped only 485 examples in 1966, compared to over 2500 ES-335's. Then as now, the Trini Lopez Standard remains the most colourful and distinctive member of Gibson's semi-hollow-body family. This is a visually striking, fine playing and incredible sounding guitar favoured by both Noel Gallagher and Dave Grohl.Note: I am not a dealer, just a passionate fan of music who has been lucky enough to find himself with too many guitars.
