Grounded pickups so there is no buzz. I think.

Electric guitars are all grounded as they come out of the factory, sounds like ground wire came lose on this and was repaired. Its not an "upgrade" just restoring it to a functional non-buzzy state. Unless you mean something entirely different, like your pickups have been waxed?

Okay, so a bit about the grounding... The soldering and actual wires are a bit interesting thing. The grounding that you mean is ground wire, and the grounding that I mean is that the connections (soldering parts) has been re-soldered and wires changed to different ones to reduce the ground noise. As well there is no hum when you are not touching strings, just usual pickup sound. It's quite simple to do this to any electric guitar that has a solid body, but the ones that is this ES-335 type and for example arch-top guitars re-soldering and re-wiring is a different story. To answer DFP comment about the wire coming lose - it didn't. The guitar was grounded by choice, it was used to play jazz, so the guy that I have got it from did this after buying. And sorry about the photos, I'm going to bring it once I've get hold of the camera.
And yah, about the price. Probably I wouldn't buy a new guitar, unless I know the luthier who is building it. There are few various reasons, but one of them is that the wood resonates differently with time when it is played. I know the instrument that I am selling and if 350£ is pricy I would go for 320£ and add a generic strap. I can't go lower than that. If it doesn't go for it I will move it to other sites.
By the way, if you want to try it, you can come up to Camden and have a bit of jam, and look at that guitar.
Cheers guys for your interest!
i love my wife very much

One thing I will say is that Epiphone are no longer made in Korea but in china now using cheaper materials. The Korean made ones are of a higher quality and as a result the pricing isn't far off but still a little high.
