Description: Up for sale, a 2009 Epiphone Elitist 1965 Casino in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case. This discontinued upscale model was produced in Japan at the Terada factory, loaded with the original pair of Gibson USA P-90 pickups. Acoustically, the fully hollow all-maple body has an articulate and smooth tone, capturing both the clear note attack of maple as a tonewood and the warmth of the hollow construction. The Gibson P-90s pickups are wound to vintage spec with plenty of midrange bark and a glassy, percussive quality. These pickups can produce dynamic cleans or thick overdrive with equal ease. This Casino weighs 6lbs 7oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation. Neck Specs: -Wood: Mahogany -Shape: Chunky C, measuring .890” 1st fret, 1.020” 12th fret -Fretboard: Rosewood, parallelogram inlay -Frets: Medium jumbo, faint wear beneath the plain strings on frets 1-5 -Scale Length: 24 3/4” -Nut: 1.650”, bone -Tuners: Grover Rotomatics -Serialization: T9-prefix, “Made in Japan” sticker intact on neck heel Body Specs: -Wood: Maple -Pickups: P-90 x2 -Controls: Volume x2, Tone x2, Three-way pickup selector -Hardware: ABR-1-style bridge, trapeze tailpiece, “dogear” pickup covers (nickel-plated) -Plastics: Gold reflector cap knobs, raised pickguard with “E” epsilon badge (factory protective film and advert intact) The gloss Natural finish highlights subtle birdseye figuring in the maple, particularly on the back, and cosmetic wear is limited to a few light finish scuffs in the clear coat on the back. The neck profile retains its smooth gloss, with a couple small nicks central to the carve behind fret 4 that are not distracting to the palm while fretting. The original hardshell case is included.
