mascino Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I'm considering to buy a Korean Casino, but the label inside the f hole seems a little bit strange. Actually the colour and font of the "Casino" writing is different from the rest. Moreover, Guitar Dater says that this Epi is Korean built, but I thought that in 2012 all Casinos were made in China. Any ideas? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparquelito Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Strictly by the serial number on that very-authentic looking sticker, the Casino in questions was made at the Unsung plant in Korea in November of 2012. I did a quick scan of Epiphone Casinos made in 2012, on Reverb dot com, and some were made in China, while others were made in Korea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mascino Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Thank you Sparquelito! Has anyone else ever seen a label like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish_Rover Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Model and serial number aside, my 2016 ES339 Pro has exactly the same label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mascino Posted November 28, 2017 Author Share Posted November 28, 2017 Update: according to the pictures in this topic, the label sticker could seem legit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish_Rover Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I don't understand what the problem is, why do you think it's not legit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crust Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I can see that the last number "1" in the serial number thing is somewhat "bolder" than the other numbers there , but it still looks OK , to me :) . Maybe the s/n print thing has interchangeable numbers , some with somewhat "heavier" type , maybe . I don't know . Hey , could you post a few photographs of the whole thing . That would be quite OK to me , and I do not believe you will hear any other complaints , for doing just that , from anyone else :"here" No , none at all , whatsoever imho :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
