Look at this beautiful 1963 Gibson ES330TDC

This is one of the best guitars I’ve gotten my hands on in a while. I am glad we were lucky enough to be asked to find it a new home. It’s a fantastic example of why early 60’s Gibson are above and beyond most guitars ever made. Even after 60 years, the playability is exceptional and the P90 tones are even more incredible. It sports a factory bigsby, which is a rarer feature on these as most had a trapeze style bridge.

This guitar spent many years as a daily player on the road with a touring artist and has a few memories (dings) it acquired along the way. Those years really brought this guitar to life. You can feel it just wanting to be played!

Beyond a few minor marks it has been incredibly preserved and cared for. The original finish is in excellent condition. With only slight checking and minimal marks or wear.

The fretboard is in amazing condition and the fret markers are not disintegrating as I’ve seen on others. The 5th marker corner is slightly above the fret board but does not affect playability and is a simple fix for any luthier. The frets were professionally replaced in the last few years. As said this was a daily player so it the old ones were shot.

The electronics are amazingly clean and sound incredible. I see no signs of any changes to the electronics at anytime. There is no static or dirty spots in the pots. The tuners still hold tune great and I will include a new set of tuners in case those old ones ever fail.

This guitar has many more stories to tell and songs to sing. If you are looking for a lively player with damn close to a museum level of preservation. This is your chance.

Comes with an early Gibson Custom Shop case

If you haven’t heard of Lucky Dog Guitars. You’re missing out. His builds are off the charts cool!

Dropped these two beauties at Flippin' Guitars today!!

The butterscotch tele is a 1982 American Vintage reissue in for a set up. Made in the Fullerton plant and well played over the years. It’s a great guitar and I’m a sucker for flat head screws!

The second is my fathers 1986 tele. It is a MIJ Tele custom with double bound body. My dad cut the Nashville pick up in himself. It’s in for a neck straightening. Over the years the neck has warped. Can’t wait to get this one playing great again!!

Picked up some cords, made in house by Chris. His cords are the absolute best.
