Excellent choice for rockabilly. $500 USD seems to be the going rate in the States, I don't know how that translates across the Pond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokey Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Thanks jerry, $500 is about £250 but for some reason it never quite works out like that. If someone knows what they are on about then it would probably fetch more. Thanks for your help, it looks impressive so i'll watch it for a while.

garyelcrrt1281733995 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Also can't speak to rarity, but its available to anybody Stateside who can come up with the scratch... http://www.music123.com/Epiphone-ES-295-Electric-Guitar-with-Bigsby-Tremolo-518554-i1150073.Music123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fc4cdf Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 The 295 is still in the current lineup but with a Bigsby tremolo. I've played three at different stores here in SoCal and were fun players. 2 were 500.00 and one was 450.00. All new Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokey Posted February 9, 2008 Author Share Posted February 9, 2008 thanks for your help Any ideas on this one.... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=130196257690&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=003 The 'bay seems to have a few things that I have never seen before which makes it quite interesting at the moment. I would also appreciate any info on a nighthawk, i know of the gibbo version but not the epiphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
