Hi Folks,
As you may remember I became recently a Casino Junkie...holy hell...its my hand in glove guitar at all my band sound needed as a frontman...
I´m so happy that i just found a back up to take weekly to my gigs where i cant take my 66 and put it in another hands (i get payed in a Jam bar on sundays)...A guy was selling this casino at a cheap price of 1200$...
He bought it from a guy that brought just the wood from US in the past...i mean the body and the neck and he added all modern parts to mahke it his beloved 330...now he found a 66 330 and sold this to me....a luthier says is for sure a casino body and neck that was repainted with nitro with cherry colour sometime in the past...his knowdlegde says its probably a 60´s or early 70´s Casino and the wood is dry and resonant as a vintage one....
I attach here some pics if you could help me try to date this thing....scale length is short,....but we dont have any more clues...all parts added later are modern....
i hate plastic modern sound in guitars...thats why i bought this for 1200$ with the old body to play the thing alive every week out in the streets!
thnaks a lot for helping!!
