1964 Epiphone Casino E230-TD
Introduced in 1961 by Gibson, the Casino is the Epiphone equivalent of the ES-330:
same pick-up configuration and hollow body construction.
But with its white pickguard, and neat headstock design, it looks and feels somewhat different.
Keith Richards and Dave Davies from The Kinks were Casino players
but it is the ultimate Beatle guitar as John, George and Paul all owned and played one.
This stunning original 1964 Casino is in near perfect condition with a striking Royal Tan finish.
These early “small headstock” Casinos are very sought after and highly collectable,
they’re also the only ones with a wide 43mm nut.
This early 1964 model has all the classic features of that period:
full neck profile, nickel pickups covers, short truss rod cover, and an added Bigsby B7.
Complete with its original grey case and Epiphone strings.
