tommasters Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Hello, I'm new and I see a lot of "where does this casino come from" threads but yeah here's mine. I THINK it's Japanese Fret ends are covered, body joins at 16th fret blue label but I've never seen this colour before. Any ideas? On the label it's marked as VS so ?vintage sunburst? weirdest sunburst I've seen Any thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the label it's marked as VS so ?vintage sunburst? weirdest sunburst I've seen Any thoughts I have got one in the more traditional vintage sunburst. It is a Japanese domestic market only guitar from 76 to 79. I have seen 2 in this colour before. Can I ask where you got it from. Could you tell us the serial number.

tommasters Posted September 18, 2012 Author Share Posted September 18, 2012 I got it off an Australian Forum called Melband. Serial is 028016 which searching by epiphone and that gives me this address. Previous auction link? I guess it's where the guy bought it from? I just think it's an interesting colour more than anything I've never seen them advertised looking like this unless it's just a weird aging thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgrasso Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 That is simply stunning. Best eye candy I've seen this week. Nice find. Enjoy her and play her often. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought mine off the same seller in Japan. You have one very rare guitar. Did you pay similar money to what it cost the other guy when he bought it from Japan?

bobouz Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Best eye candy I've seen this week. Other than the natural finish ES-330 VOS I just picked & can't stop staring at, I would agree! Unique & very appealing color on your Casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellercasino Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Here is mine. As you can see, mine as the Kluson type tuners instead of the Epiphone ones. The one i recently saw advertised in Japan, the same colour as yours had the Epiphone tuners also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you pay similar money to what it cost the other guy when he bought it from Japan? I paid a little over 1000. I dunno if it's a good deal or whatever but yeah the colouring on it made it a must have, thanks for the info though I was thinking maybe it was a fake good to know that it's not!

If that price is Australian dollars that is well cheap. If you want any more info just ask. Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
