Vintage 1964 Epiphone Casino Sunburst With OHSC
Time to roll big. We have an exceptional vintage instrument that is a true vintage icon, 1964 Epiphone Casino in Sunburst. The Casino is the hollow body that such great artists like all 3 Beatles, Gary Clark Jr, Radiohead, Howling Wolf and more have choosen as their guitar of choice. This one in particular is spectacular. It hails from 1964, the same year that gave us the Civil Rights Act here in the U.S., Ford unveiling the Mustang at the New York World's Fair, and the first mass-distributed diet soda, Diet Pepsi. And, of course, the Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show, changing the course of music forever.
This beautiful vintage hollow body gives you warm, articulate tones with a perfectly balanced body. You get a resonant laminate smoothly arched maple body with those classic f-holes and two deep cutaways with plenty of reach on the fingerboard. The set mahogany neck comes with a comfortable early 60s neck profile and a rosewood fingerboard with intricate parallelogram inlays. Experience the sparkle and magic of its P90 pickups. This combination of hollow body gives you one of the most touch sensitive experiences ever, perfect. Equally vibrant with both clean and distorted tones. With two pickups, pickup selector, individual pickup volume and tone controls. You will find your favorite tones easily.
This vintage Epiphone Casino shines with any playing style. It comes equipped with a sturdy tune-o-matic bridge, a stylish and purposeful trapeze tailpiece.
This wondrous classic instrument is all original - finish, pickups, everything. It's in great condition considering its age, with just the right amount of player wear. There is evidence of a headstock crack that was fixed (extremely well) long ago. Our head luthier and vintage expert vetted the guitar and determined it to be fine, with no issues. The original hardshell case is included as well.
You won't see many Casinos as cool as this one, and we are thrilled to present it here.
