snowbum007 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 The factory that made my 50th anniversary '61 reissue casino. I can't remember the serial number and which factory but they made one hell of a guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkuss Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I've owned them all and although the Saein, Samick and Unsung were all solid, the quality of the Peerless guitars that that bit classier IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie brown Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 This thread is more than 4 years old.......no need to dig that deep Could you tell where it was made if it was NOT written on the guitar ? Why don't you just rate the guitar - and not the place where it was made ? Yeah, and it was started when the QC in China, wasn't quite up to speed, yet. Some may still have their preferences, but the Chinese stuff is continually improving...IMHO. So, the actual quality differences aren't nearly as apparent, as they used to be. I try to look at the guitar, itself, and evaluate it, on it's own merits, rather than which factory/country it was made in. Still, USA (if I could afford them), and Japanese built, have always been my favorites. My only Chinese built Epi, is my Texan! And, it's great, all the way around! So...???

damian Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 It was a joke........ 1999 Casinos always are made in 1999........ Oh, thank you......I thought mine was #1999 from the Peerless factory.....I bought it in 2001....It is labled "Factory Second", but the Q.C. Factory guy had delexia, so, I figured it was actually a hybrid Casino built for disabled folks, because of the double cutaway....... :unsure: ..........
