Need that 'authentic' ZOOTV era "One" sound? Wanting a ES-330 but having a hard time finding one... or like most... can't afford the vintage cost?

Gibson's latest reissue is a late 1950's ES-330.

The look of it is fantastic. And while less than the cost of a vintage ES-330, the reissue is not cheap. A faded sunburst (Like the one Edge used) lists for $4704.00 (Random number)

ES-330

Gibson Custom’s new ES-330 is reminiscent of the classic Gibson, late ’50s feel, including the comfortable neck shape blending into the soft curves of the rounded fingerboard binding. The new ES-330 is a lightweight, lively sounding guitar whether played acoustically or plugged in. With the 16th fret neck joint and just the right neck angle, it’s got a great feel that makes you want to play all night.

The combination of exacting ’50s body and neck specifications and slightly underwound P-90 pickups on aged nickel-plated bases tied together with an original spec wiring harness will bring you back to the tones of Grant Green in a laid-back New York jazz club. Run it through an old tube amp and you won’t be able to keep from playing one British Invasion song after another.

The weight, the feel and the tone of this ES-330 are magical. Offered in old-school colors and all finished in our warm Vintage Original Spec process, it’s a guitar that just makes sense from beginning to end.
