Elliott Smith's Semi-Hollowbody Electric Guitars
He has many pre 1969 and post 1969 guitars (at least five). The difference in those is the fret witch the neck joins the body (pre at the 16th, post at the 19th). -Gibson ES-330 pre 1969, flaming red finish, Standard tuning and a Bigsby vibrato -Gibson ES-330 post 1969, sunburst finish, Open D tuning. We can see a picture of it at Portland's Oregon History Museum.
''He brought his guitars, but the funny thing about Elliott is he had five of the same guitar, the Gibson ES-330. I never understood it, exactly. I was like, "OK, that’s great, we can use those, but if you want this bigger guitar sound, I encourage you to check out the guitars that I have." On “Shooting Star”, he fell in love with this old 60s Telecaster I have. Most of the really big guitars you hear on that album are that Telly because this guitar just spits at you. '' (David McConnell on Pitchfork interview)
