GuitarJohn Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Folks, I am trying to get the particulars on this ES-330. Posted 4 photos of limited size. Serial Number 854145 Please help me with any info on this particular guitar. Is it a 19 fret or 16 fret? Wide or Narrow neck? Thanks, JohnnyB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Mac Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I'd say it's a post 1962 model. Sixteen fret...probably a thin neck. I LOVE ES-330's! I have one from 1966 and it's just incredible! I don't think I've ever played a bad one. Are you gonna buy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JO'C Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I have the Gibson Electric Serialization chapter from the 11th Edition Blue Book of Electric Guitars which indicates that serial# is either 1966 or 1969. I have a 1969 with S/N 833616 that originally I thought was a '66. The only way to be sure is to remove one of the pots and get the date code. Mine was dated 1968 so the guitar is an early 1969. The trapeze and the bridge on the 330 look identical to the ones on my '69. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
