Gibson ES330TC, which is thought to be made in 1960.
At that time, this model at that time was not properly managed by the serial number and was judged by specifications..
① Pale color chalie red (commonly known as water melon). It will become darker from 1961 and become a general cherry red.. Also, there is no evidence of overlacker or refinish).
② No engraved serial number (330T begins to be engraved in serial number in 1961. In addition, there is a factory order number inside, but it has disappeared and cannot be read..
③ The shape of the neck is not a narrow neck, which is common in 60 years (it is a thin neck compared to 59, but the width is wider).
If you look at the materials at that time, Cherry Red has only 37 shipments, and it is a very rare guitar..
I see ordinary cherry red ES330T, including overseas, but I don't think you can see the water melon color..
There is a Bigsby, which is probably retrofitting, but this is also equipped with specifications of the same period (good operation)..
Also, since the pot was exchanged, it could not be judged by the pot date..
Originally, an old speed hat knob was on (now I have a silver hat knob for my personal preference.. The original knob is included) * 7th image.
Fret and nuts seem to have been replaced once.
The current remaining amount is about 80-90 % left, and it is in a good state without any dents..
The neck is almost straight and there is no body drop.
The bridge also contains frames of the 50s specifications and the specifications that have been used since the 1960s (it seems to have been used from old stock)..
The peg seems to be the original, but the 3rd string part is slightly bent (it is a bend that can not be used)..
I don't know if the case is original, but it's very old (probably from the 60's, but please make a judgment in the image)..
To summarize ...
Bigsby may be retrofitted. The pot has been replaced with a recent one (I have a silver hat knob for my personal preference).
The nuts and frets have been replaced. Other than that, it's probably original.
* There is almost no information because the number of production and shipments is small, so it is the judgment of guitar mania amateurs..
It is a key sound, but it will be a personal subjectivity, but I feel that it is a depth sound that can not be tasted with the current product..
The ES330T is installed in the center with only one pickup, but it is not too thick, not too sharp, and salt plums are good..
Is it thanks to the vintage P90 pickup? I feel that it is a very easy -to -use sound guitar that is very easy to use..
The raw sound is also loud (it feels louder than a poor recent Akogi).
It is very rare, so I would like to hand it over.
If it is a nearby area, we will meet at the middle point and hand it over..
If it is far away, we will also support shipping..
Please consider.
