Sheraton, Casino, ES-339.............

That's nice. Unusual to see 'Epiphone by Gibson' on the headstock. Is that a Japanese Sherry?

According to the serial it's a 1970 MIK and this was one owned by Noel from the early days, he then passed it on and now used by an old band member, the nut is different but shows how people like their guitars set up 'not according to the plan' but as Pete says it's supposed to be from 86-88 so not sure what happened along the way, I did hear Noel was offered Gibsons but refused in the early days as he prefered the Epiphone.

There had not been any 1970s Epis made in Korea.....

if the serial is starting like 705XXXX
it's from May 87

The E BY G stuff is still super cool and they only made them for three years. Welcome to the Epiphone By Gibson club! psst...86-89 were the best Korean years IMO
