How the asking price compares

At £666.20, this sits against a current median asking price of £656.15 across 2 other closely matched listings. For now, the current market median remains the main AG benchmark at £763.29. The featured guitar is about 12.7% below that level. That earns AG’s Great Price rating: on the evidence available, it is notably keener than the centre of the current asking-price market. These are observed eBay asking prices, not confirmed sold prices.

What a buyer should check

Inspect the neck joint, frets, nut and electronics. Confirm that it is an Epiphone instrument rather than a copy using Epiphone‑style wording.
