So, I hope that helps clarify what Gibson/Epiphone is doing, regarding the 'Lennon' Casino's.Ĭharlie I take all that on board, but what confuses me, is that mine is number 1171 and was first purchased new in 2003!! Why would number 76 be produced five years later than that, surely these are produced in sequence!. Or 'R' (refurb) will be part of the original 1,965 guitars, of each version, made.
Released, either! The contract/agreement with the Lennon estate is for only 1965 of each model! ANY 'b' stock, So, it would seem, that a guitar with a 2008 construction date, is valid! There were 'no over-runs,' It, at least to their dealers (and probably on thier web-site) once the Ltd Edition is completed. So, there was no 'cut-off' date, regarding production.as of yet, anyway. They didn't make all 1,965 of each version, in 1 or 2 runs, but do a few, as orders are made, and shipmentsĬompleted. OK' date=' Gibson Customer Service ('Benton' was the person I spoke to) said they are still being made,Īnd that the 1965 number IS the cutoff.but not all 1,965 of each have been made, yet.or, so it seems.
