Flaunt Weeekly
Guitar World Verdict
We love it when Gibson gets it right. The ES-330 certainly deserves another shot at the spotlight; it’s just such a usable instrument. It plays like butter and is packed with a fabulous range of recognisable tones. The Studio’s classic big and thick voicing is archetypal Les Paul in anyone’s book, and along with a great weight there’s little to complain about.
Pros
- +
Super build quality and attention to detail.
- +
Excellent weight and playability.
- +
Superb, giggable sounds.
Cons
- –
Visually, we miss the body binding on the Studio.
- –
At high volume, the ES-330 prone to feedback.
What are they?
Trying to keep up with Gibson’s avalanche of new releases is becoming a full-time job: blink and you might miss something.
