This 1960 example captures the charm of the model with its original \u003cstrong\u003esunburst finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, Brazilian rosewood fingerboard, Kluson Deluxe tuners, and classic ABR-1 bridge and trapeze tailpiece. At just \u003cstrong\u003e5lbs 7oz\u003c\/strong\u003e, it also has the wonderfully light and resonant feel that makes these early ES-330s so much fun to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy all appearances, this ES-330T remains \u003cstrong\u003eall-original\u003c\/strong\u003e, and it is in excellent shape for its age. It has clearly been well cared for, with minimal play-wear and a beautifully preserved finish. The most striking feature of the guitar is its \u003cstrong\u003eextensive natural lacquer checking\u003c\/strong\u003e: long, pronounced streaks run the length of the body, giving the sunburst a wonderfully distinctive vintage character. The checking is dramatic without detracting from the guitar’s otherwise very clean presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are a couple of quirks worth noting. A previous owner scratched their driver’s license number into the back of the headstock—more charming than concerning. There are also two small areas of amateur finish touch-up, one on either side of the neck heel. Aside from these details, the guitar presents exceptionally well, with \u003cstrong\u003eno cracks, breaks, or structural repairs\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost importantly, this ES-330T is not merely a great-looking survivor—it \u003cstrong\u003esounds fantastic\u003c\/strong\u003e. The combination of its fully hollow construction and original Gibson P-90 delivers the lively, woody, and articulate character that makes the early ES-330 such a special instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ES-330T is accompanied by an \u003cstrong\u003eaftermarket Gibson hardshell case\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eAll components original unless specified otherwise\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eModel \u0026amp;
