2011 Gibson Custom ES-330L. Gorgeous reissue with the highly-desirable attributes of the original 1959 ES-330. Period correct angled headstock, premium tulip button tuners and a vintage period-correct 1-11/16" nut made from Corian. Single-ply binding on the neck, small pearloid block inlays, long tenon neck joint, and nickel hardware. The body is truly hollow and has no center block, making it lightweight, comfortable, and uniquely resonant. Without a maple center block it is free to vibrate acoustically and the weight reduction is substantial. 1-piece Honduran mahogany neck has a long, narrow tenon for extra strength and resonance and the 30/60 neck is slimmer than a '59 rounded profile and ever-so-slightly larger than a '60 slim-tapered, making it comfortable. Special control wiring scheme known today as the Memphis Tone Circuit and P-90 pickups in both the bridge and neck positions with independent volume and tone controls for each pickup. A 3-way pickup selector switch allows you to choose either pickup independently or both pickups combined. Pickup riser on the bridge pickup.FeaturesPlain maple laminated top, back, and rimsFully hollow double-cut bodyUltra thin nitrocellulose lacquer finishOne-piece Honduran mahogany neck with long narrow tenon30/60 neck profile22-fret rosewood fingerboardPearloid small block inlaysVintage style dog-ear P90 single-coil pickups with black plastic coversTrapeze tailpieceABR-1 bridgeKluson-style tulip button tunersSingle-ply creme binding on neck, top, and backNickel hardware2 volume/2 tone controls with '60s reflector knobs500K Ohm audio taper pots3-way pickup selectorMemphis Tone Circuit24-3/4" scale1-11/16" nut widthGuitar is in excellent condition with very basic signs of use.
