Saw this on craigslist for $175. Apparently the neck broke and was professionally repaired - I can't even tell. I have a Dot and broke the neck, and pretty un-professionally fixed it and it plays good as new, so I can't complain. Really nice little guitar - aw yis.

That looks really nice.

Sometimes guitars play better after they've had a broken neck.

Sweet mother of crikey that thing look lovely.

I agree with Chanks, I've played some guitars my friends had that had broken. There always seems to be a significant tonal improvement after the break. I wonder why.

Some people think that the glue makes for a stronger bond and alters the resonant properties of the instrument.

Also, forgot to mention this - the back of the neck has a kinda weird (but totally amazingly beautiful) deep redish color to it, compared to the dark-tan color that normal Natural ES-339s have. Dunno what the deal with that is but I'm okay with it.

Huh. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that that probably isn't the original neck. Looks awesome though!

It's original.
Maple body with a mahogany neck.

Cool, guess that's why I shouldn't make uneducated guesses.

That is weird though.

Weird. Wild. Stuff.

That thing seems like it has some wild history to it. Waiting for sound clips. Murp.

these guitars weird me out

I've been playing my 80's Ibanez AM-50 (ES-339'alike...) this week. Love the size and feel. I bet that Epi is rad. Love the dots with the binding too!
