I'm looking for information on the Royal Nevada. I know it existeddirectly south of the Stardust during the 50s. One source puts its addressas 3100 Las Vegas Blvd. S. and being open from 1955 to 1959. The problemis that another source has the Silver Slipper (also known to be locatedjust south of the Stardust) at 3100 Las Vegas Blvd. S. and being open from 1950 to 1988. I'm trying to reconcile this. Was the Silver Slippersouth of the Royal Nevada? Were these two places ever actually open atthe same time? I'm especially interested if anyone can cite a sourceor photograph that answers this question conclusively.

Notes:

In the mid-90s, a person known to the 'Net only as 'Scruffy' had a wonderful historical map of the Las Vegas Strip that was one of the best Las Vegas resources in the early days of the Internet. Unfortunately,Scruffy's map has been offline for several years. Even though it wascreated from scratch, this map is very much inspired by his efforts, and he deserves much of the credit for this.

Some smaller casinos that do or used to exist have been intentionallyomitted. Basically, if the casino didn't either have its own hotelrooms or table games, it's too small to receive notice here.

There are other casinos that probably deserve to be mentioned. Anysuggestions for these casinos and their locations can besent to npc@jetcafe.org.

P-90 Single Coil Pickup

Legendary Tone

Casino Act 1997 (sa)

First introduced in the early 1950s, Gibson's legendary P90 single coil pickup produced a raw powerful tone that helped define the blues and rock and roll in their formative years. Today, the P90's traditional combination of high output and brilliant tone is still considered a favorite among many top musicians. Known by such familiar nicknames as the 'Soapbar' and the 'Cobalt,' the P90 still cuts through any type of music, all while displaying amazing tonal sensitivity for everything from blues and rock to mellow jazz riffs. It's perfect as a vintage replacement, and features vintage, braided two-conductor wiring. It's also fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of unwanted microphonic feedback.
