I've seen this on many a 60's cherry Gibson where the white binding takes on a tinge from the colour. Any questions please ask! As with most Matsumoku Antique Sunburst thinline guitars from this era there's some bleed from the body into the binding. Please check out the photos and the link to a huge spread of accurate photos. LOADS OF HIGH RESOLUTION PHOTOS HERE: Condition This Casino is in excellent used condition. The current Elitist series from Epiphone that are made in the Terada factory certainly approach custom shop perfection but these 80’s made Matsumoku instruments are a step ahead. The Japanese craftsmanship of the 1980’s was head and shoulders above anything that has been produced since and genuinely rivals their USA made Gibson branded siblings. Serial Number 2041811 Anyone who has ever owned a Matsumoku made Epiphone archtop will tell you they’re without a doubt the best made guitars to carry the Epiphone name. Japanese made Epiphone Casino from the Matsumoku Factory.
