1966 Epiphone Casino 230-T in Royal Tan Sunburst
This gorgeous vintage guitar is an absolute joy to play. It has a perfectly straight neck, clean frets, very low action (.04" at the 12th fret), feels great against your body, and is resonant as hell--loud and boomy, even unplugged. It sports a "Royal Tan Sunburst" Kalamazoo Michigan factory finish with a honey-brown figured back.  Perhaps its best feature is the fabulous ambering and crazing of the finish and binding which has evolved from nearly 60 years of service.

​This guitar feels, sounds, and even smells like a vintage guitar should. It includes both an original 1966 Epiphone Tremotone vibrato tailpiece ($700 all on its own) and its original '66 trapeze tailpiece. Even has the rare-as-hen's-teeth "E" logo trussrod cover. Comes with a period Gretsch case which fits the guitar perfectly. Its only blemish is a small partial headstock neck repair from 1969 (so said the 2nd owner... I'm the 3rd). which is minimal and very clean. Comes with two pickguards--one original, and one a recent pearloid reissue "E" model; and two sets of true vintage 60's knobs--black (shown) and '66 vintage tan (now on the guitar).  Shown at the bottom with its older brother ('64 Casino), they just don't make guitars like this anymore...  $5000
