They don't come much nicer than this one:
This one came straight from Miles' collection and is in excellent condition. There are no finish checks or cracks whatsoever. There a couple of very small dings, but that's it. It comes with the elusive bridge cover. The only thing that's missing is the selector switch cover. I haven't been able to find a direct replacement, but there is a cover on it now. It will ship in a very nice case. I don't know if it's the original case - it is the one that it shipped to me in. Perhaps Miles can chime in here.
All electronics work though the pots could probably use a cleaning.
The price is $1350 shipped to the lower 48. Actual shipping costs minus $50 elsewhere.
Plenty of pics at my Ning site, including close-ups of the dings.

Location: SoCal | You're gonna regret selling it. I bought one identical to that from Miles and then sold it when I felt like I really needed the money. Regretted it instantly (and I really don't even play electric). The guy who bought it is willing to sell it back to me when I can get the money together. I'm looking forward to that day.
People compare these to ES335's but they are really more like ES330's and Epiphone Casino's. No center block and single coil p/u's. |

If the case looks new, it is not original. If it looks like an older case, than it is. I know I bought new cases for several Tornado's and Thunderheads I had, but I had a few in original cases as well. Just don't remember which you got. |

I really was hoping nobody would buy this one, I played it last year when I was staying with Crimson and fell in love with it. But I know where the $$$ is going and I hope Crimson gets the new toy.
If you do swing it CL, I'm making another trip your way and I'll bring mine. It will be time to bust out the Crossroads DVD! |

Location: Marlton, NJ | Tim - that didn't happen. I waited too long. It saved me a 5 1/2 hour drive anyway.
What Tim is referring to is a GP that was on Craigslist in Virginia. It started out at $1500 and then dropped to $1250. Obviously a no-brainer... I just couldn't do one without the other.
I hope someone here got it.
Bring yours anyway! |

Location: Marlton, NJ | Tim - I truly appreciate the thought but I wouldn't put you in that position. If it was meant to be it would've happened.
I'll figure out something good to put in that empty spot :cool: |
