“We love it when Gibson gets it right”: Gibson ES-330 and Les Paul Studio review

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.
