NGD: 1967 Casino

That's a lovely guitar. I was in a few weeks ago and spotted it. Not too over the top a price either for a shop guitar. 

Have fun

Cheers

Oh, I didn't pay anywhere near that price

 I played it and considered buying it a while back, great colour, plays very nicely, a vintage instrument at a good price. A great deal too, pleased it's gone to a good home.
Weller, The Beatles.....maybe Grant Green? What's not to like......

That is absolutely lovely. Happy to provide a good home for it when you tire of it

I always thought he played a VS 330, can't recall seeing a picture of him with a Casino

Please don't put a bigsby on that...

Why not? It's an era-appropriate modification as it was a factory option (earlier models were available with the Tremotone). It's not like I plan to fit EMGs and refinish it in Zakk Wylde Bullseye...

because it is a lovely guitar just as it is....I seem to have touched a nerve here..?...but it's your guitar to do with as you please...my statement wasn't a form of criticism...:)

Not at all!

Absolutely gorgeous. I love that checked faded Cherry. Sweet.

I love my Lennonized Casino, but it is no 60s original...

Congratulations.

@RiftAmps Can I ask what kind of monies for that quality guitar if you don't mind me asking. PM if you would prefer or just ignore this question. Absolutely jaw dropping. A thread a while back on which guitar to keep if only one was allowed, guess this is your current choice? Enjoy :-)
