In 1966, during the recording of Revolver, John Lennon and George Harrison acquired sunburst Casinos.

Epiphone engineers studied the original guitar to get these signature instruments as exact as possible. Epiphone Casino vintage advertising. As a result and in cooperation with Yoko Ono, Epiphone guitars proudly introduced the Limited Edition John Lennon “Revolution” 1965 Casinos. Revolutionary -The John Lennon Limited Edition Casino The “ John Lennon 1965 Casino ” is a reproduction of the guitar as John originally purchased it with the sunburst finish and stock hardware.

The 'Revolution' John Lennon Casino offers professional musicians the same key features of John Lennon’s personal Epiphone Casino that he purchased in London in 1965. This is the stripped down “Revolution” version John used for The Beatles White Album, Abbey Road, the rooftop concert for the Let It Be film, and his first solo work with the Plastic Ono Band.

For the Epiphone Company of 1961, the Casino was a small breakthrough. After the merger with Gibson in 1957, Epiphone no longer made jazz archtops. A new era of music had arrived. The introduction of the Casino was a modern design that announced that Epiphone’s unique history would continue separate from Gibson’s. Though from a distance the Casino had the look of an ES-335, the Casino was a true hollowbody giving players a clear, ringing tone that could be pushed into overdrive when needed. It was an ideal guitar for stage and studio and can be heard on many landmark recordings including The Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band and The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds.
