This is a rare 2005 Japanese built (Terada factory) Epiphone 1965 John Lennon Casino in sunburst finish.  These were built in Japan and then finished (nitro finish) and the hardware installed in the Gibson Nashville factory.  Guitar has some tiny nicks/scratches but overall is still in very good condition.  This one has an "R" stamp on the back of the headstock indicating that it had a small cosmetic blemish from the factory.  The frets are in excellent shape and it plays cleanly up and down the neck with good action and no buzzes or issues. The original pickups sound great and all controls work as they should.  The weight on this Casino is 6.34 lbs.  It comes in the original brown Tolex hardshell case and comes with the original hang tag/warranty/inspection card and truss rod wrench.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
