It has an adjustable rosewood bridge that appears to be later than the original. The pick guard was removed by the previous owner and stored in the case. The guitar is in very good condition with only some minor cosmetic marks in the finish and has minimal fret wear throughout the length of the neck, making it a real pleasure to play regardless of your playing style. Complete tonal versatility is undoubtedly this guitar’s forte. You have complete tonal control over both pickups thanks to the two independent tone and volume controls for each pickup and the choice of three pickup combinations via the three-way pickup selector triples your options. The limited-edition Epiphone George Thorogood White Fang looks to one of George’s prized midcentury Gibsons for its visual and tonal inspiration. You can also run your fingers easily right up to the highest frets thanks to the well crafted Florentine cutaway. A cutaway ES-125 has been, and will always be, the heart of George Thorogood’s thick, crunchy, low-down blues-rock guitar tone. Our 1961 ES-330 has this very same neck profile. Incidentally, the 1961 neck profile is highly desirable amongst Gibson players due to its wide and flat fingerboard which is extremely comfortable to play, hence its popularity with amongst others, Jimmy Page. It has a very comfortable and easy playing neck that fits your hand like a favourite glove. George Thorogood certainly knows his guitars and this is his preferred model of guitar. The ES-330’s lineage can be traced back to 1936 when Gibson released their first Electric Spanish (ES) archtop guitar, the ES-150, a jazzbox electrified with a ‘blade’ single-coil pickup (commonly referred to as a ‘Charlie Christian’ pickup). This two pickup model offers up everything from warm mellow jazz tones to some seriously ‘biting’ rock/slide tones depending on your sonic desires of course. Twin pickup 125s are by far the most desirable.
