Gibson es335 Nashville custom shop - price advice
What's Hot
hi there, I have a Nashville custom shop es335 in mint condition with factory fitted bigsby and just wondered what it's 2nd hand price would be? It's a vintage sunburst colour all original condition. Let me know if I'm breaking any rules here,
Cheers

I think they're different but I get rather confused by it all. (And I used to think Les Paul model names were confusing!)

That one has the Custom Bucker pickups but some had Classic 57s, as @guitarmansteve77 says his has.
Depending on condition and finding the right buyer the used value could be anything from £2,800 to around £3,300. I've seen some silly prices asked for them but they're probably not what they actually sell for. I've also seen more than one seller trying to pass off Memphis guitars as Nashville ones.
Have to agree with @fretfinder . If Coda are selling new at £3800, there's probably some wiggle room in that price for the buyer to get some kind of deal. I can imagine Coda selling a second hand one for £2800 to £3100... so private sale will probably bring in less than that (especially in today's market).
Just my view.
