Gibson Custom Limited Edition 1959 ES-330 Antique White Bigsby VOS
Serial Number: A960335
Weight: 6.92 lbs.
The Gibson Custom Limited Edition 1959 ES-330 Reissue with Bigsby, in Antique White, brings back one of the lightest, liveliest hollowbody designs from Gibson's golden age — built out of the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville as part of a Limited Edition Collection, with full historical accuracy to the original. It weighs just 6.92 lbs. The fully hollow body is 3-ply maple/poplar/maple with no centerblock, which is exactly what gives the ES-330 its open, acoustic-like resonance and touch sensitivity. Cream single-ply binding on the top and back and a VOS nitrocellulose lacquer finish in Antique White keep the look period-correct and understated.
The neck is one-piece mahogany in the Authentic 1959 profile (.910" at the 1st fret, 1.020" at the 12th), a full, comfortable carve with mortise-and-tenon construction for solid tonal transfer. The rosewood fretboard has mother-of-pearl dot inlays, cream single-ply binding, a 12" radius, 22 vintage frets, a 24.75" scale length, and a 1.69" nylon nut — a period-correct playing feel from top to bottom.
A pair of P-90 pickups powers this one, and the hollow body plus P-90 combination is exactly what made the original ES-330 a favorite across genres: sparkling clarity, real chime, and a textured midrange that holds up clean or driven. Controls are the traditional two volume, two tone, and 3-way toggle layout for full tonal shaping. Hardware stays true to vintage form — an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, a Bigsby B7 vibrato tailpiece for expressive pitch bends, Kluson Deluxe tuners, and nickel-finished hardware throughout, with black Dogear P-90 covers anchoring the classic look. This Gibson Custom 1959 ES-330 Reissue (Serial #A960335) includes a Certificate of Authenticity and ships in its Gibson Custom Shop hardshell case.
