One example is the Gibson ES-330™, which was introduced in 1959. By 1962, the model had noticeable changes compared to the earliest versions. While the ES-330 shares many similarities with its close cousin, the Epiphone Casino™, the ES-330 actually predates it; the Casino wasn’t introduced until 1961. Now, after an eight-year hiatus, Gibson Custom is proud to bring the 1962 ES-330 Reissue back to the core lineup of Gibson Custom Historic Reissues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1962 ES-330 Reissue features a fully hollow thinline body crafted from three-ply maple\/poplar\/maple. Unlike the similar-looking ES-335, the ES-330 lacks a maple centerblock, giving it a livelier, more resonant response and much greater acoustic volume when played unplugged, making it one of the greatest “couch guitars” of all time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1962 ES-330 Reissue features a one-piece mahogany neck with a SlimTaper™ 60s C profile, which is slimmer and less rounded than that of ES-330s from 1959. The one-piece, bound rosewood fretboard is equipped with 22 authentic medium jumbo frets and is adorned with cellulose small-block inlays, rather than the plainer dot inlays of earlier ES-330 models. The neck joins the body at the 16th fret, just as with the originals from 1962, resulting in an optimized bridge placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pair of P-90 pickups with black Dogear covers powers the 1962 ES-330 Reissue, with the bridge pickup having standard windings and an Alnico 3 magnet, while the neck pickup is underwound and is equipped with an Alnico 5 magnet, resulting in a perfectly balanced set. Each pickup is hand-wired to individual volume and tone controls using CTS® potentiometers and paper-in-oil tone capacitors. A Switchcraft® three-way pickup selector toggle switch and 1\/4” output jack complete the electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeedback? Sure. Any fully hollow guitar is more prone to feedback than a solidbody or semi-hollowbody, and isn’t an ideal choice for ultra-high gain or situations that require extreme volume levels. However, the ES-330 is still easy to control when you add some gain and overdrive, and with careful palm and fretting hand muting, it sustains and sings in a very unique and musical way that most other guitars simply can’t match. The ES-330 excels at Americana, blues, 60s pop, country, jazz, rock, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther vintage-correct features include the nickel hardware, including a Historic no-wire ABR-1 bridge and trapeze tailpiece, a nylon nut, Kluson® Deluxe tuning machines, an ES-330 multi-ply pickguard, and black Top Hat knobs with silver inserts and dial pointers. The VOS finish on the hardware and gloss nitrocellulose lacquer gives the 1962 ES-330 Reissue the mellowed aesthetic of an unused vintage guitar that time forgot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are pleased to bring the 1962 ES-330 Reissue back to the Gibson Custom Historic lineup and can’t wait to hear what a new generation of musicians creates with this exceptional guitar. A Lifton™ hardshell case is also included to keep this beauty safe and secure during storage and travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"780\" data-end=\"795\"\u003eBody Shape:\u003c\/strong\u003e ES-330\u003cbr data-start=\"802\" data-end=\"805\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"805\" data-end=\"820\"\u003eBody Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully Hollow\u003cbr data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"836\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"836\" data-end=\"854\"\u003eBody Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maple\/Poplar\/Maple\u003cbr data-start=\"873\" data-end=\"876\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"876\" data-end=\"893\"\u003eBody Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single-Ply Top and Back\u003cbr data-start=\"917\" data-end=\"920\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"920\" data-end=\"936\"\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e VOS Nitrocellulose Lacquer\u003cbr data-start=\"963\" data-end=\"966\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"966\" data-end=\"984\"\u003eNeck Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany\u003cbr data-start=\"993\" data-end=\"996\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"996\" data-end=\"1013\"\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e SlimTaper '60s C\u003cbr data-start=\"1030\" data-end=\"1033\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1033\" data-end=\"1048\"\u003eNeck Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long Neck Tenon\u003cbr data-start=\"1064\" data-end=\"1067\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1067\" data-end=\"1084\"\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24.75\"\u003cbr data-start=\"1091\" data-end=\"1094\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1094\" data-end=\"1119\"\u003eFingerboard Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosewood\u003cbr data-start=\"1128\" data-end=\"1131\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1131\" data-end=\"1154\"\u003eFingerboard Radius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\"\u003cbr data-start=\"1158\" data-end=\"1161\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1161\" data-end=\"1171\"\u003eFrets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reissue Medium Jumbo\u003cbr data-start=\"1192\" data-end=\"1195\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1195\" data-end=\"1218\"\u003eFingerboard Inlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dot\u003cbr data-start=\"1222\" data-end=\"1225\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1225\" data-end=\"1242\"\u003eNut Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nylon\u003cbr data-start=\"1248\" data-end=\"1251\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1251\" data-end=\"1269\"\u003eBridge Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e P-90 Dogear\u003cbr data-start=\"1281\" data-end=\"1284\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1284\" data-end=\"1300\"\u003eNeck Pickup:\u003c\/strong\u003e P-90 Dogear\u003cbr data-start=\"1312\" data-end=\"1315\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1328\"\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 Volume | 2 Tone | 3-Way Toggle Switch\u003cbr data-start=\"1368\" data-end=\"1371\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1371\" data-end=\"1382\"\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic\u003cbr data-start=\"1401\" data-end=\"1404\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1404\" data-end=\"1418\"\u003eTailpiece:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trapeze\u003cbr data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1429\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1429\" data-end=\"1440\"\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kluson Deluxe with White Buttons\u003cbr data-start=\"1473\" data-end=\"1476\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1476\" data-end=\"1496\"\u003eHardware Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel\u003cbr data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1506\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1506\" data-end=\"1524\"\u003ePickup Covers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Dogear\u003cbr data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1540\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1540\" data-end=\"1558\"\u003eControl Knobs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold Top Hats\u003cbr data-start=\"1572\" data-end=\"1575\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1575\" data-end=\"1593\"\u003ePlastic Parts:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003cbr data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1602\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1602\" data-end=\"1614\"\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e .010-.046\u003cbr data-start=\"1624\" data-end=\"1627\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1627\" data-end=\"1643\"\u003eAccessories:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certificate of Authenticity\u003cbr data-start=\"1671\" data-end=\"1674\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1674\" data-end=\"1683\"\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lifton Reissue Hardshell Case\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gibson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43693104857147,"sku":"62ES330VOSCNH1-160465","price":5999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/6190\/4699\/files\/160465-3.jpg?v=1783361449","url":"https:\/\/willcuttguitars.com\/products\/gibson-62-es-330-td-reissue-sixties-cherry-vos-nh-465-62es330voscnh1-160465","provider":"Willcutt Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
