Original 1967 Gibson ES-330TD Sunburst

Description

1967 Gibson ES-330TD – Sunburst – Beautiful, Original Example

A superb example of an original 1967 Gibson ES-330TD in classic Sunburst finish.
This guitar will appeal equally to players seeking a resonant, lively vintage Gibson and to collectors looking for a fine, investment-grade example of one of Gibson’s most iconic hollow-bodied guitars.
The serial number (065461) and potentiometers all date to 1967.

Playability:

The guitar plays every bit as good as it looks, with excellent intonation, low comfortable action, and a beautifully responsive acoustic quality that ES-330s are known for. At 2.7 kg (6.0 lb) it’s light, lively, and effortless to play.

Condition:

Overall, the instrument is in excellent vintage condition, showing only the expected small dents, dings, and surface marks, along with attractive lacquer checking that gives it authentic character. Under UV inspection, no cracks or structural repairs are visible.
Several years ago, the back of the neck was professionally refinished to enhance feel and playability. This work is consistent with the guitar’s age and character. There has also been touch-up work to the edges of the headstock veneer.

Body finish (top, back, and sides)
All electronics, including pickups and potentiometers
Bridge and tailpiece
Hardcase

Non-original components:

Neck finish (professionally refinished)
