1964 GIBSON ES-330 TD. A great playing a sounding example. I've had several 60s 330's and this was my favorite. Just saving for something else. I had it expertly refretted with original size fret wire and a bone nut installed (original nut included). Two of the knobs are not original (just the knobs), and there was a strap button filled (see photos). All else is original including the electronics. The Bigsby is likely when new dealer added, as it is period correct and clearly been on for a very long time. Pretty common on 330s and very much an upgrade over the stock tailpiece. The Bigsby gives it some nice balance and better string tension than the trapeze, plus added Bigsby sounds on a hollow body. I added a spacer to the bridge pickup to bring it closer to the strings and balance it with the neck pickup (completely non-invasive and necessary on almost all 330s). I have the original pick guard, just forgot to put it on for the photos. The tuners are period correct double line Klusons, normally these have small round tuner buttons, but these are the 335 style tuners. I believe they're original (and an upgrade over what's normally found). There is no evidence of other tuners or footprints, I have seen a handful of other 330s with these tuners as original.
