Terada Casino buying?

Post by MattK » Thu Apr 13, 2017 6:13 am

Hi all - I am in Tokyo and have found what I think is a 1988 Terada made Epiphone Casino, vintage burst with a Bigsby. Wondered if any of you knowledgeable guys may have any thoughts on what they should go for? It's in good shape but has some buckle rash etc.

Might want to check the Reverb price guide, and/or completed listings on Ebay. Wish I could be more helpful here!

Yeah I had forgotten what it was tagged with so I wanted to go in with a ballpark price in mind - when I saw it was ¥83 000 (about $US760 / $A1000) I walked away. It was nice but that's market value, and I am pretty sure the Bigsby was a mod and not factory.
