WTB: ES120/ES130

[AlanN]

Preferably natural, low actioned and with the kind of maple top you want to slobber over. I've been steadily convinced over the last three and a half hours that I no longer want a 335!

UK based buyer.

(Erm... hi, first post!)

UK is OK. 8)

What about a Cherry ES130?

Cheers! Rupert

Yup, that'd be interesting too! How much are you looking for?

(Bloody hell, it's about 4am in Austria!)

4:10am right now.

She is brand new, I bought her from Japan last year. '06 serial. All flame. OHSC.

Asking price without shipment is UKP 950.--. I can send pics today afternoon. She has open-book headstock. Positively no "dimple".

Sometimes it helps to be Austrian.

Cheers! Rupert

Thanks Rupert, but that's approaching the 335 money I've part-spent on a new iPod i'm afraid!

I've seen a new natural '07 120 on eBay for ?795+?10 P&P, and that's about as high as I can go. (Am I missing something with the 130 though - is it much better than the 120?)

Hi Alan, it also depends on the year model, eg: a 130 today was probably a 120 3 years ago as the numbers only mean the price, 130 = 130'000 yen, 115 = 115'000 yen, so a 120 three years ago could now be a 130 because of a price rise. I like this one it has block inlays and was a custom order.

Hi Alan!

As Mick says: an ES130 probably was an ES120 a few years ago. However, the ES115 doesn't have flames like the ES130s.

In any way Hisashi is a very respected seller, and the price for the ES115 is just fair.

Otherwise I am always open to negotiate or to trade.

Cheers! Rupert
