Description
Gibson is all about history, and it doesn’t get much more historic than the company’s first thinline archtop electric: the ’59 ES-330. The Gibson Memphis Historic Series '59 ES-330 VOS is a product of the company’s unwavering respect for its past. Built to Vintage Original Spec (VOS), this ES-330 transports the player back to a time when the box was the talk of the town, sporting killer features like a 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body with centerblocked semi-hollowbody design, quarter-sawn mahogany neck with and a rolled rosewood fingerboard, adjustable ABR-1 bridge, trapeze tailpiece, and dual Memphis Historic Spec P-90 single coil pickups with Memphis Tone Control Plus circuitry for warm, vibrant tone with ample sustain and resonance whether you plug it in or not.
About Gibson Memphis:
Luthier Orville Gibson founded the Gibson Mandolin-Guitar Mfg. Co. Ltd. in Kalamazoo, MI in 1902. Its original aim was to make mandolins and mandolin-family instruments. Over the last 100-plus years, Gibson Brands, Inc., as it is now known, has since evolved into the world’s premier manufacturer of semi-hollow and hollow body electric guitars, as well as a celebrated portfolio of innovative solid-body and acoustic models.
If Beale Street could talk, it might tell you about Gibson Memphis. Producing all of Gibson’s semi-hollow and hollow body guitars, the Gibson Memphis facility is the heart of the blues.
