SOLD: Epiphone ES-339 PRO $250

Post by Mini Forklift »

Picked this up this morning, thanks to Molly for arranging a drop off and Kris for looking after it for a few days. Has had a headstock break at some point, repair job by Molly and once again it plays as it should...

I like the natural finish, a bit of a change from the usual black or sunburst; the grain on the back is quite nice too :)

Neck has a good size to it, a bit thicker than what I'm used to but that's not a bad thing. Sounds pretty good plugged in - can't really fault it in any area. I think this will be a guitar that I'll be reaching for a fair bit and not have to worry about getting dinged or licked by the dog haha.

All in all a welcome addition to the family, cheers Molly :thumbup:

I really like my epi 339, I've changed the pups but the epi ones were really quite good.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Anyone in Christchurch that wants this? Not really wanting to ship it around the country due to the neck break.

Has a new set of .011's on it, $250 for any of you's lot.

I love how fast the NGD changes to FS on this forum. You don't even need to start a new thread. :lol: Good luck with the sale, it's a bargain at $250!

I wonder if it's actually a virus, I mean Jim did get it off Molly, I'm not sure how long ex-Molly gear lasts in anyone's possession!

Amp GAS. Tried to resist but alas... it's futile.

Would you drop it off at my folks house in Halswell if I bought it? Be quite nice to have something down there when I visit home...

Absolutely, no problems at all. I'm away down South all of next week but can get it over there any day this week or at the weekend if that suits better.

Just flick me a PM with your details mate :thumbup:
