![]() There’s a slim taper mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard with fret end binding and parallelogram inlays. It has a 5-ply (maple, birch, maple, birch, maple) laminated body following the classic lines of a Casino, with really nice yellow binding offsetting the natural satin nitrocellulose finish. The specs of these amazing Casinos were based on the mid 60’s USA Kalamazoo models. A really nice top on this one too with some very striking maple grain all up and down the front and back. This one is number 69 (the year after Lennon sanded back his own Casino) made of only 1,965 guitars worldwide. Andy Babiuk worked on this project with Epiphone/Gibson. This is the original USA limited to 1,965 nitrocellulose satin finished Sunburst (pre-stripped) top model, just like Lennon's. Please note, the is not the cheaper Chinese made 'Inspired' model. It's a beautiful example of this rare guitar with a very low serial number. Up for grabs is a scarce (and very limited) 100% complete USA built John Lennon signature ’65 Casino.
