1959 Gibson ES-330 TD-B7

 
 
 

First released in 1959, this stunning hollow body guitar shares the body shape of its older sisters the ES-335, ES-345 and ES-355.
Fitted with powerful P-90 single coil pick-ups, it is a perfect guitar for jazz, blues and rock music
and was used by such greats as Grant Green and Keith Richards.

This stunning original 1959 instrument is one of the first 270 ES-330s to come out of Kalamazoo.
A classic Gibson, it features all the famous ‘59 specs: full neck profile, gold bonnet knobs,
Mickey Mouse ears, no-wire ARB-1, amber selector switch tip…
While this guitar came out of the factory with a trapeze tailpiece,
the Bigsby B7 was probably fitted when first sold as it’s a rare 50s model and the condition matches perfectly.
And some might say it even makes it a better guitar!
Complete with original brown Lifton case and vintage Gibson strings.

A must for any serious guitar player or collector!
