"Already gone"

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Beautiful guitar and already gone. Would like to thank Gibson for announcing this new model March 30th and discontinuing it a week later. Been looking for an ES-330 with block inlays for years. So disappointed over this . I really was gonna buy this one. I was so pumped to get one. This is the third time I missed out on a new ES 330. What bothers me most are the people that buy these limited edition guitars and re-sell them the next day for double the money. You know who you are! It’s all about greed and nothing else. So disappointed that me and many others miss out on these guitars. Why would Gibson bother advertising it when they don’t even have any more left? It’s a big let down.
