Believe it or not, it was the 330! First introduced in 1959, the Gibson ES-330 quickly became a star with its fully hollow design and loud, acoustic charm. By the time 1962 rolled around, the guitar had seen various spec\/appointment changes that fans of the model adore. Fast forward to 2026, and after 8 years off the production schedule, we are pleased to see the return of the Gibson Custom Shop 1962 ES-330 Reissue in '60s Cherry!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 330 gets its iconic double-cutaway body from a fully hollow maple\/poplar\/maple body. Without the maple center block found in the 335, the 330 produces a more open, resonate sound that many enjoy simply playing acoustically. It's body is bound on the top and back, and is accented with a multi-ply black pickguard, nickel hardware, and black top hat control knobs with silver inserts. The '60s Cherry VOS finish offers the appearance and feel of an old instrument that has been put away for safe keeping – showcasing beautiful hardware patina and great feel. Delivering the authentic 330 voice, a set of single-coil P-90 pickups are in the neck and bridge positions. The bridge employs a standard wound Alnico 3 magnet, while the neck is underwound with a Alnico 5 – they played off each other wonderfully and produce a warm, sweet tone. More voices are accessible through the 3-way toggle switch, volume, and tone controls. Even though the 330 is a hollowbody, it can still handle a decent amount of gain before feeding back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 24.75-inch scale length mahogany neck sporting a SlimTaper '60s \"C\" shape is glued into the body with a long neck tenon. Sitting on top, a bound rosewood fingerboard with 22 period-correct medium jumbo frets and cellulose small-block inlays offer smooth fretting and period-accurate inlays. The neck meets the body at the 16th fret and offers exceptional access to the upper register. Standard 10-46 gauge strings are loaded through the trapeze tailpiece before making contact with the ARB-1 Tune-O-Matic and nylon nut before being strung to pitch with the Kluson Deluxe tuning machines. The headstock sports its open book headstock design with the Gibson logo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitted perfectly in its Lifton reissue case and accompanied by its COA and case candies, this hollowbody is ready to play all types of genres and inspire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- Highlight --\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1962 ES-330 Reissue hollowbody\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBound Maple\/poplar\/maple body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMahogany SlimTaper '60s \"C\" neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBound rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall-block inlays\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogear P-90 pickups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrapeze tailpiece with ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon nut and Kluson Deluxe tuning machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifton reissue hardshell case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Gibson Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"160475","offer_id":55640328667304,"sku":"62ES330VOSCNH1|||160475","price":5999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1210\/3886\/files\/62ES330VOSCNH1-gibson-custom-shop-1962-es-330-reissue-hollowbody-electric-guitar-60s-cherry-1.png?v=1781811393","url":"https:\/\/www.russomusic.com\/products\/gibson-custom-shop-1962-es-330-reissue-hollowbody-electric-guitar-60s-cherry","provider":"Russo Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
