1961 Epiphone Casino - Sunburst ..."Keith-Richard Model"
1961 Epiphone Casino - Sunburst inkl. orig. case
Super clean and all original 1961 Epiphone Casino in exellent/- near mint condition! Almost like new, only the fact that someone stitched his Passport-number(?) in the back of the headstock keep this Instrument from beeing a "Minty", ...still best condition we´ve seen a Casino ever! 1961 was the firstyear for the Casino, with a smaller headstock, "Dot-Inlays", brown tortoise pickguard and black plastic PU-covers (Dog-Ears!), those ´61-´63 models are comonly known as the Keith Richards-models, ´64-´65 versions known as the Beatles-models. The guitar has barely been played, no visible playwear, no weatherchecking on the finish and comes with some case-candy. It comes with the wider pre-/65 neck very comfortable to play and the two P-90 sounds superb! The comes with its original grey Epiphone hardshell case w/blue interior and some original case-candy.
