SOLD: Gibson ES 335 ex-Supergrass (Gaz Coombes)

St_Hubbins

A couple of guitars up for sale from the private collection of Supergrass legend Gaz Coombes to make space in ahead of a studio move.

First up is a 1996 Gibson ES 335 in vintage sunburst, made at the Nashville plant. The guitar is nicely roadworn, as you'd expect for a guitar that has seen the world and appeared on some of the most high profile stages and TV shows on the planet, but generally in good shape - neck is in good order. Tended to by some fine guitar techs over the years.

Comes with hardcase shown in pics. Looking for £2,000 but will consider sensible offers. No trades, thanks.

Pics to follow...

Thanks Andy, Supergrass is probably my other half's all time favourite band. We've seen them live 3 or 4 times , once even having to sit through Coldplay at Crystal Palace afterwards - that's dedication.

She sort of plays a bit and I am supposed to be selling stuff as we are saving for a new kitchen but I couldn't turn this down !

Now if someone could buy my Les Paul , my Ac10 or my sons Blackstar ID it will help the Dr Cornelius kitchen fund recover from this huge blow :-)

I'll give you £2001 for that 335 if that helps the kitchen fund..

Amazing guitar  . . . .  Supergrass were a great group & Gaz is still a class act :-)

DrCornelius

Andyoz , you are lovely guy for thinking of me but this one may be a keeper. Keep your eyes on the classifieds through as I'm weighing up whether to sell my ridiculously good 1981 Tokai es100j. If they feel and sound similar then I'll let the Tokai go as the Gaz factor means the wife is happy if we keep the Gibson. What a quandary !
