2009 Gibson Custom Shop ES-330 (consignment) No Longer Available

This is a very clean 2009 Gibson Custom Shop ES-330. Gibson started producing the ES-330 in 1959, but not, as you might think, as a ‘cheaper’ version of the new, popular ES-335. Instead, it was to replace the discontinued ES-225,

Gibson Custom Shop Firebird Non-Reverse, 2003 SOLD

Gibson Custom Shop Firebird Non-Reverse, 2003   SOLD

Here’s a very cool Gibson Custom Shop Firebird Non-Reverse from 2003, in a ‘TV White’ or ‘Limed Mahogany’ finish.

The Firebird was introduced in 1963 in the ‘Reverse’ form, where the lower cutaway is longer than the top. However, due to poor sales and some complaints from Fender, Gibson essentialy flipped the body and head to this ‘Non-Reverse’ form. Additionally, the ‘Non-Reverse’ models use a set neck, rather than a through-neck, construction.

Gibson Custom Shop ‘1961 Les Paul’ Limited Edition (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

Gibson Custom Shop '1961 Les Paul' Limited Edition (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

This is a pretty faithful Custom Shop reproduction of the Gibson 1961 Les Paul, the first year of the shape that became the SG. With a patina treatment, this guitar looks like it’s been tucked away for years. It’s very resonant and rings; very comfortable to play and the Maestro works well and has another little known advantage – it adds a little bit of weight to the tail, counterbalancing the guitar so it doesn’t have the neck-heaviness that SG’s often do.
