Epiphone inspired by Lennon Casino

Any views on these guitars? They seem to be a limited run with USA pickups correct headstock angle and grovers. 

Been offered a trade for a fender Jaguar Lacquer model and am tempted.

Ive had 2. AVOID the natural one, they just seem unfinished and feel rough. Id rather a normal MIC one tbh, but if youre getting offered it for under £500, you wont lose money.

Most are under the daft illusion they are worth more like £900 which is what you used to get a used Elitist Casino for..

Iv noticed that.

I won't swap for my jag as that's worth easily 6 ton

They sit unsold on facebook pages at £500 whenever listed.

Thanks fellas.

The pickups are the same as the Elitist. But the body and neck certainly isn't...

They were better than the standard versions when they came out, with the correct 16th fret neck joint and whatnot, but the standard chinese made ones have caught up on that front.

They do have the better USA pickups and switchcraft/CTS electronics though - and that's no small thing with a hollowbody guitar.

The finish on the sunburst I owned was very nice too.

Worth £600 if mint imo.

I was very tempted but too much to question now.
