A stunning cherry finish and an amazing playing 335! Overall in great shape with some general playwear and surface marks\/scuffs and has some sort of finish reaction with some \"Dots\" (no pun intended) on parts of the finish. They can't really be seen unless under the right light and angle. Otherwise body is in very good overall shape with no major damage. Neck is overall in very good condition. \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eWe cannot be 100% sure but there may have been a headstock repair as there is a difference in finish at the neck joint. If so it is extremely well done and almost un-noticeable - cannot feel anything and has zero affect on play.  Pickguard has been removed but the holes remain in good condition so one could be easily be added. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003ePrevious owner also felt the need to relocate strap buttons a few times so there are two sets of old\/filled holes (see photos). Headstock shows some light surface marks and some marks along the edge but is otherwise clean. Fretbaord is in excellent shape. Frets show some light wear and divots but have no issues with buzzing or dead spots and have plenty of life left. Hardware shows some aging, light wear, and pitting on the stop bar. Electronics work great and have been thoroughly cleaned. Featuring a set of PAF style humbuckers that sound fantastic. Overall a few minor cosmetic issues, but w\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003ee have discounted the price accordingly. Otherwise this is an absolutely incredible playing 335! Has been fully inspected and set up by our tech and ready for a new home. Includes Epiphone gig bag.
