The 'John Lennon 1965 Casino' is a reproduction of the guitar as John originally purchased it with the vintage sunburst finish and stock hardware.
As a result of these efforts and in cooperation with Yoko Ono, Epiphone proudly reissues two Limited Edition John Lennon Casinos. During the examination, measurements were carefully performed, body tracings were done, drawings were created, and photographs were taken. In November 1997, a team of engineers from Epiphone and Gibson visited 'The Dakota' in Manhattan to examine John's Epiphone Casino. THE LIMITED EDITION, USA COLLECTION JOHN LENNON CASINOS This guitar comes with a black Epiphone case not the brown Lifton style. We do not see these come up for sale often. This guitar is very lightly played so shows very little wear of any kind.
The neck carve and construction are identical to the original 1965. In excellent condition straight out of a collection. 2004 Epiphone John Lennon 1965 Casino Limited Edition.
