[SN 108009] USED Epiphone / 1981 Casino Natural Blue Label [05]
Among the many Epiphone models, the Casino is the most famous and beloved by the greatest number of musicians.
This particular model was manufactured at the Matsumoku factory in 1981 and features a blue label.
The Blue Label was used until 1979, switching to Beige in 1980, making this a rare specimen crafted during that transitional period.
Due to natural aging, the finish has developed a sun-kissed patina, evolving into a vintage natural color.
Although 45 years have passed since its manufacture, it shows signs of use but has no major damage and maintains a beautiful appearance.
Among the many variations of Casino guitars—which differ by country of manufacture, era, and color—the natural color from the Matsumoku era is particularly popular.
