[quote="richardhomer;959963"]I agree with this. At £1k you are probably robbing them.

There's no 'probably' about it.

Mid 70s 335s regularly sell for £2500.

The 355 was Gibson's top of the line model and by the sounds of it, this one is almost certainly from the '60s. If it's pre-65, it'll be worth BIG money; if it's a later one it's still at least £3000's worth.

Ok ok !.....look, it's not an early 60,s model, I did see the guitar once and did a little research on their behalf as it wasn't for me at the time, I recall,it was difficult to decode the SN, but it was probably very late 60, maybe early 70,s. I have agreed to get it back here and between "us lot " hopefully we can conclude in more detail, I'm really not looking to rob anyone, if the ££££ is more then I will make a fair offer,

Late 70s/early 80s Gibson Explorer E2, or a late 70s/early 80s USA B.C. Rich, and some change.

Or an early 70s LP Custom and no change...
