Assuming it's a USA Kalamazoo made Casino, the serial # indicates it was made in 1965. A photo would help identifying it.

I meant how much did you get it for? Because this thing is a gem. Seriously.

By what you see in the pix. It has a Blue label on the inside not sure what that mean either. Some say good some bad I really dont know. What do you think I have.

HOW MUCH DID THIS COST? lol

 

It's a 1965 Kalamazoo Epiphone Casino.

 

It doesn't get any better than that. It's kind of beat up but it's seriously got some mojo. Of course, I don't do appraisals. Just going by what I hear.

LOL WHat would you pay for it? O its a good player even with the old dead strings on her. What would you pay for a unit like this and I will tell you lol. The best pawn shop find I have seen in 18 yrs.

It's hard to say by looking at JUST the pictures. I'd have to see it up close. I'd probably pay no more than 2,500 for it.

And put it on lay away of course, lol. I'm only in college for goodness sake.

WOW I am so tripping right now. I mean I have found things in pawn shops before you know but that was in the day like 18yrs ago its hard to find good old unit any more. But it does look like things are started to surface. This guy also has a Gibson L-6 I am thinking 74-78. You think I should pick it up as well.

if the L6 is a set neck then I say go for it... I don't like the bolt-on neck version of the L6
