Epiphone USA Limited Edn John Lennon Signature '65 Revolution Casino Nr Mint
Up for grabs is a beautiful near mint condition example of the sought-after Epiphone John Lennon signature ’65 Casino. It's a beautiful example of tis rare guitar. Please note, the is not the cheaper Chinese made 'Inspired' model. This is the original USA limited to 1,965 nitrocellulose satin finished natural (stripped) top model, just like Lennon's. It is number 1,783 made of only 1,965 guitars worldwide, complete with case candy and the plush Lennon hardcase that this originally came with. The specs of these Casinos were based on the mid 60’s USA Kalamazoo models. It has a 5-ply (maple, birch, maple, birch, maple) laminated body following the classic lines of a Casino, with really nice yellow binding offsetting the natural satin nitrocellulose finish. There’s a slim taper mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard with fret end binding and parallelogram inlays. The headstock has the same serial as John Lennon’s own Casino (328393). Weight is a very comfortable on this one at 2.8kg. The neck is dead straight, truss rod fine, plenty of life left in the frets. Structurally and electrically sound. It's a a super clean example of this rare guitar. Any little specs you can see on the headstock and fretboard are just tiny bits of bubble wrap & dust. We cannot find any notable blemishes anywhere. Obviously no breaks, repairs or mods etc. The pickups have been upgraded to a set of USA Lollar P-90s. They are nice and crunchy and sound super aggressive on a Casino when dialled up. Complete with original, and rather beautiful hardcase and case candy inc cloth bag, pickguard, spare knob and other various bits. It's just missing the paper certificate from we can see. Probably the cleanest looking example of the revolution Casino we've had in at Gas Station Guitars over the years.
