Gibson - ES-335 CS - Semi-hollow body guitar - USA - 1969

I have bought this Gibson ES-335 second hand myself in 1977. The machine heads were already replaced by Grovers at the time, and the bridge for a copper one. I had the humbuckers replaced in 1981 for Bill Lawrence L-500 (legendary first series) and switches for series/parallel circuiting. The original humbuckers are unfortunately missing. The colour is fairly rare, and the lacquer is in good condition. The lacquer is coming off a bit only on the headstock. Also some damage on the back side of the headstock and minor damage on the back side of the neck. See pictures as well. Serial number 113301 I did have a guitar expert take a look at it, and he dates the guitar back to 1969. The volume potentiometer of the neck pickup has a dead spot here and there, needs to be looked at. Very low action and very good playability. The included case is not the original one anymore.
