USA Collection - The John Lennon 1965 Casino!
Epiphone's Casino is one of the most widely recognized and most popular electric guitars in the history of rock and roll. Epiphone's original semi-acoustic, the Casino was the preferred guitar of the Beatles, kicking the instrument into the spotlight and ensuring its immortality. It's recognized by fans for its distinctive look while loved by musicians for its ability to deliver both a bright, jangling tone AND a meaty growl like a pure electric. The John Lennon "1965" Casino is a replica of the original Casino that Lennon made famous and used throughout his career. It features the original body shape from the mid 60s, with nickle plated "dog-eared" P-90 Pickup Covers with original pole spacing. On the inside is stamped Lennon's original serial number and an individually hand-numbered label.
