frenchie1281734003 Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hi there' date=' look at this page... http://www.musiciansfriend.com/compare?base_pid=518295&base_pid=518549&base_pid=518553&base_pid=518413 The Lennon Casinos have USA P-90's, the Elitist and the normal Casino "normal P-90's" What is the difference?[/quote'] I think those Musicians friend spec sheets are a bit off, as far as I am aware, the Elite/Elitist Casino`s have made in the USA Pickups (whether by Gibson or not I am unsure). I have been told that the Elitist P-90`s are wax potted, and those on the Lennon reissues aren`t. Also of note, those spec sheets state that the Lennon Casino`s have Chrome h/ware, when in fact they have Nickel! So I would take most of what`s said there with a pinch of salt.

mgrmatt Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Frenchie is correct about the accuracy of the specs listed on MF website, I usually go to the Gison Epi website if I'm needing specs. mgm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting to look at the options and price difference. Just looking at it as if I where a buyer, I'd have to go with an Elitist for $ 1,000 saving over the USA Assembled models....
