Old pic of my 1959 ES330TDC. Wish I still had it..

Great photo. [thumbup]

 

I must point out, though, that the 330 in the photo isn't a 1959. Judging by the fretboard inlays and the vol/tone knobs, it's no earlier than 1962. If the pickup covers were black plastic, the guitar was made in the latter half of '62. If the covers were metal, it was right at the end of '62 or into '63 (or later).

So I'm not a Gibson expert. I assumed it was a 59 because was told that in 1968 when I got it..
