Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-330 Reissue VOS Vintage Burst #A960783

The Gibson Custom Shop 1959 ES-330 Reissue VOS in Vintage Burst captures the unmistakable character, elegance, and sonic personality of one of Gibson's most beloved vintage hollowbody designs. Faithfully inspired by the original 1959 models, this beautifully crafted reissue combines a fully hollow maple/poplar/maple body with a resonant, lively acoustic character and exceptional tonal responsiveness. Finished in a Vintage Burst VOS nitrocellulose lacquer, its aged appearance and subtle vintage patina evoke the charm of a well-preserved original, while single-ply top and back binding provide a clean, understated aesthetic.

The mahogany neck features an authentic 1959 profile, long neck tenon construction, and a 24.75-inch scale length, offering the substantial feel and comfortable playability of its historic predecessor. A rosewood fingerboard with a 12-inch radius, dot inlays, and reissue medium jumbo frets completes the traditional appointments. At just 6 pounds, 1 ounce, the ES-330 is exceptionally comfortable and effortlessly inviting, making it an ideal companion for extended playing sessions.

A pair of Gibson P-90 Dogear pickups delivers the unmistakable voice of the ES-330, combining articulate clarity, rich midrange character, and an expressive dynamic response. The traditional control layout features independent volume and tone controls for each pickup, with a three-way toggle selector providing access to a versatile range of vintage-inspired tones. Additional period-correct appointments include an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, trapeze tailpiece, Kluson Deluxe tuners, gold Top Hat control knobs, nickel hardware, and black plastic components.

Beautifully capturing the spirit of 1959, this Gibson Custom Shop ES-330 is an exceptional blend of vintage authenticity, distinctive hollowbody resonance, and timeless Gibson craftsmanship. Its lively P-90 character, comfortable lightweight construction, and unmistakable Vintage Burst presentation make it equally compelling for blues, jazz, rock, and beyond. Complete with a Gibson Custom Shop Certificate of Authenticity and a Lifton Reissue hardshell case, this is a remarkable instrument for the player who appreciates the soul and sophistication of a true Gibson classic.
