No Longer Available – Gibson ES330 Thinline Archtop Cherry 1969

On November 6, 2019 /

Built from 1959 to 1972, the Gibson ES330 is essentially the same as the 1961 ES-230 Epiphone Casino, a double cutaway, fully hollow model with a pair of P-90 pickups. From a short distance, the Gibson ES330 looks very much like the ES-335 models, but there is a key construction difference in the lack of the center block. The body is otherwise similar, with Laminate Maple for the top, back and sides, with Mahogany for the neck and a bound Indian Rosewood fingerboard.

Gibson Les Paul Axcess Custom Ebony, 2015

On October 23, 2019 /

There have been many incremental changes to the Les Paul over the years, but the Gibson Les Paul Axcess Custom – and Standard – represents one of the most radical enhancements to the core design. While the Les Paul Axcess Custom shares the basic construction concept of a carved Maple cap on a Mahogany body with a Mahogany neck. Standard Gibson BurstBuckers (depending on year) feed through individual volume and tone controls, which also provide coil splitting. On the Custom, the fingerboard is Richlite. And as a Custom model, all the metal parts are gold plated.

Gibson ES 335 Thinline Archtop Cherry 2012

On October 22, 2019 /

The Gibson ES 335 changed many things when introduced in 1958, combining the feedback resistance and sustain of a solidbody with the ’rounder’ tone of an archtop. This has been one of Gibson’s most successful models, and is still in production. Here we’re looking at a Gibson ES 335 variant – the ES 335 DP, indicating that it has double pickups and a plain top.

Gibson Les Paul Standard Cherryburst, 2009

On October 21, 2019 /

The Gibson Les Paul Standard is one of the most recognizable guitars in the world, particularly when it carries the Cherry sunburst finish. Introduced in 1952 as Gibson’s response to rapidly rising interest in the electric guitar, especially models that would not feed back with rising stage volumes. Here we’re looking at a Gibson Les Paul Standard with meaningful weight relief, built at the Gibson plant in Nashville and dating to April 22nd, 2009.

Pre-Sold‼ Gibson Clapton Firebird I 1964 Model Sunburst, 2019

On October 17, 2019 /

This fantastic instrument is pre-sold, but we wanted to share it. It’s a brand new Gibson Clapton Firebird, number 100 of just 100 built to re-create Clapton’s 1964 Firebird I as used in Cream. Gibson introduced the Firebird in 1963, initially using neck-through construction – while the neck section is built of several sections of Mahogany separated by Walnut for stability, it extends the full length of the guitar.

Gibson CS Les Paul Custom Black, 2014

On October 15, 2019 /

Built at the now-closed Gibson Memphis Custom Shop, this gloss black CS Les Paul Custom dates to 2014 and has all the class and looks of the Custom. The Gibson Les Paul Custom was introduced for the 1954 model year as a ‘dressed up’ version of Gibson’s then-new Les Paul model. The black finish with white multi-ply binding were meant to suggest a tuxedo. At first, it was equipped with a P-90 at the bridge and a ‘Stape Top’ Alnico V pickup at the neck. More important, though, was the wood choice.
