Historically Accurate Guitar Reissues

Gibson Custom has revived the ES-330 legacy with the reintroduction of two historically accurate reissues — the 1959 ES-330 Reissue and the 1962 ES-330 Reissue. Handcrafted in Nashville after an eight-year hiatus and now offered as core offerings within the Historic Reissue Collection, both models feature fully hollow thinline bodies constructed from three-ply maple, poplar, and maple. The design omits the center block found in the ES-335 to deliver an exceptionally open and resonant acoustic voice with impressive unplugged volume.

he 1959 reissue features a one-piece mahogany neck carved to an Authentic 1959 C-profile with a bound rosewood fretboard, dot inlays, and period-correct medium-jumbo frets, while the 1962 version adopts a sleeker Authentic 1961 Thin D neck profile with cellulose small-block inlays, capturing the subtle evolution the model underwent during its early production years.
