Here’s a beautiful factory stop 1964 ES-335 that’s a verified one-owner(80 year-old gentleman) with a very strong, deep red color and very nice grain. The red color is even stronger than on my 1960 ES-345 or 1964 ES-330. This guitar is in very fine condition with very little overall wear and is a sight to behold! It also has the perfect medium chunky neck that the 1964s are known for. The Brazilian rosewood fingerboard is dark, yet light enough to display some really nice figure.

The guitar is housed in an 1958 Case Company case that originally went with the owner’s “other” ES-335; yes, a 1958 ES-335. That guitar is long gone, and after seeing and playing this guitar I can understand why the owner kept the 1964! Other than the case, the guitar has been professionally inspected and authenticated and is 100% original.

Factory original Left-Handed Gibson ES-330TDC with OHSC, collector quality/investment grade vintage instrument! The cherry finish is absolutely beautiful on this one; a very deep cherry with completely unfaded top and back. The chrome hardware retains a high gloss and shine. This is an unmolested 100% original lefty vintage ES-330.

The back of the neck has some wear, and there is moderate fret wear, but plenty of fret life left. The rosewood fretboard is DARK brown and looks fantastic against the deep cherry red!

Very rare left-handed PAF-equipped ES-345TD from early 1962, serial # 54xxx, factory Bigsby, was a custom order factory Bigsby with no Custom Made Plaque(I’ve never seen another), beautiful unfaded Tobacco Sunburst finish with minimal checking, slight worming on the back, Dark Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard, just a scorchin’ PAF Gibson! PAFs are VERY potent on this guitar, measuring 7.46K/Neck and 7.44K/Bridge.

The guitar is 100% original except for the switch tip(probably a newer replacement), but does include a late 1950s brown Stone Case Company case with pink interior, which many collectors prefer over the Lifton case from that era. The guitar had 2 crumbling tuner tips(typical for these guitars from that era), which I replaced with 2 original single-ring tuner tips. I actually bought 2 vintage tuners from the 1950s with the correct tips and used the tips on this guitar (the tuners with paperwork are inside the case). The original tuners have never been
off this guitar!
