I'm selling my very nearly mint condition ES 335. I bought this on an impulse from GAK in Brighton a couple of years back while sheltering from a rain storm! Beautiful guitar and sounds great. If you're looking for one of these, you know what you're looking at and this one is a beauty.
I'm selling as I'm the classic mid life crisis guitarist who's accumulated too many guitars and this one never gets played. I'd rather it be out there in the hands of someone who'd use her.
These are £550 new so I think this is an amazing deal for you as you'd honestly be hard pressed to tell it from new if it was hanging in a store. Still has the box, which it will come with.
Collection only from Lymm, Cheshire.
Any questions, please ask :)

Info from the Anderton's website:
Joining Epiphone's newly-conceived 'Inspired by Gibson' collection is the legendary ES-335 electric guitar. Known for its ability to transcend multiple genres, the ultra-versatile ES-335 is now available at a price-point that most players can afford.
Maintaining the signature semi-hollow body construction and powerful dual-humbucker formula that almost all Gibson ES guitars are known for, the Epiphone ES-335 promises a spellbinding sound with superb playability to boot!
The ES-335's body is crafted from strong layered Maple, which is used to form its top, back and sides. Giving the instrument plenty of vibrancy, definition and acoustic-like volume, this is coupled with a solid Maple tone block that creates the amazing sustain and resonance that players crave from a genuine ES-335.
To add some mid-range warmth, the Epiphone ES-335's body is paired with a Mahogany neck; topped with an Indian Laurel fingerboard for a silky touch under the fingers. The neck adheres to a rounded "C" profile, which offers excellent comfort for traditionalists and contemporary players alike, while 22 medium jumbo frets provide a controllable feel for vibrato and string bends.
A double-dose of proprietary Alnico Classic PRO humbuckers give the Epiphone ES-335 a beautiful vintage voice. Thanks to their medium output, these pickups are highly-responsive to your picking dynamics and lend themselves particularly well to expressive playing styles. Although semi-hollow guitars are fairly synonymous with jazz, these humbuckers can sound raunchy and bold with overdrive - even distortion!
The Epiphone ES-335 may be a cost-effective alternative to the Gibson classic, but no shortcuts have been taken when it comes to its hardware appointments. Sporting Epiphone's Deluxe machine heads, a tone-enhancing Graph Tech NuBone nut and a LockTone bridge/tailpiece - you can expect rock-solid tuning stability and fast, stress-free string changes.
