This Epiphone Uptown Kat is an awesome versatile guitar with some cool unique features that I have enjoyed owning for the last few years. The guitar is in good shape with some wear showing on the nickel hardware, but nothing crazy. This guitar features firebird pickups and the controls include 2 volumes and a master tone, with a master volume on the horn to turn the overall volume down with the individual volumes set. I am mainly looking at trades to be honest, but would let it go for 500. I am in no rush to get rid of this thing, just getting the itch to try something new.
