As an Elitist Casino 1965 VS it should have Grover tuners:.The Elitist label is indeed a print and not a sticker:.as well, and that is a 2011 model made at Terada plant Japan). The serial number would point to 2011 rather than 2001 on an Elitist model (my Casino Elitist serial starts with T1.The Elite series started in 2002, and was later relabeled to Elitist (in 2004 I guess) - so it is unlikely that this is a guitar from 2001 if it is a genuine Elitist model.However here are some things to consider: I'm not able to decide if that guitar is a fake or not. I searched the code to find that the guitar was made in 2001, but other Casinos I've found made around that time have the Grover tuners, while from pictures, this clearly does not.Īlso, the sticker of the 'Epiphone Elitist', isn't it supposed to be a direct print rather than a sticker?
But the back of the headstock raises an eyebrow. Looking at purchasing an Elitist Casino that I've found online.Įverything generally seems ok.
