I can't do it, though I'd love to....I think these are something like $2599 mailorder...

Still around $600-$700 over the normal Elitist, but if someone is wanting the "Lennonized" version this sounds like a pretty good deal.

Shore looks purty, and I'm glad it ain't "relicked".

Congratulations Bill! I really dig my Rev. Casino and would count it as one a my favs.

It looks like this was one that didn't have the amber finish shot over the binding.

Nice pick up, Bill! As everyone has discussed 'round the boards, Casinos are very fun to play. They've got quite a wide range of sound, too.

The Casino is the only non-Rick that I own but like Stuart said, it's just a fun guitar.

Thanks all the kind words gang...I was really hoping someone else would buy it, but I have the willpower of a, well let's just say I'm weak!

Yeah, and with "friends" egging you on...well, my apologies...to your checkbook, not your studio!

I wouldn't call you weak at all Bill..... more like 'determined'. "I will have that Casino!".

Excellnt buy, Bill..... Congratulations.

Thanks again gang, you guys are great. And an important safety tip--if you're looking for a bit of sanity in advice, don't ask JohneeK!! Just kidding John, you were right, I'm very content...

Congrats Bill,

They are beautiful guitars to play. I wish I owned one myself.

Good things come in twos? Here's the twin, 1965 version.

Same pricing...

"Good things come in twos? Here's the twin, 1965 version."

Same logic I used after I bought the '65 version

However, it does make it difficult to choose which one to play now.
