Epiphone Casino Feedback

Posted on

The Casino and Dot difference lies in their neck construction, as the Dot has a thinner neck when compared to the Casino. Although the Casino is affordable for guitarists, the Dot is more affordable than the Casino. The Epiphone Casino. If I had any reservations about the Casino it would be that it felt a little flimsy to me. The trapeze tailpiece looks cool and goes with the whole vintage styling, but I'm not sure how sturdy it will be long term. I've played a fair few Epiphone guitars over the years and have always quite liked. The correct case is the Epiphone Hardshell Case for ES-339 ($148.00 MSRP, $89.00 'street') an example of which Epiphone shipped to me to check out along with the Casino Coupe. It's a solid plush-lined case that fits the Casino Coupe perfectly; I'd definitely recommend purchasing it with the guitar as a set. The Epiphone Casino Coupe is an excellent guitar that comes at a very good price. It produces a fantastic sound packed in a compact size and offers a ton of great features ideal for both beginners and intermediate users.

The Casino

The Epiphone Casino’s unique design put it in a class of it’s own, sporting a smaller body depth and a big clear tone. It’s ability to feedback and be overdriven immediately attracted the attention of Paul McCartney, and soon gained a following by the likes of The Beach Boys, Keith Richards and Gary Clark Jr. to name a few. Sporting the same classic styling as the original, the Casino remains a go-to guitar for over two generations of musicians.

Epiphone has been a household name with artists and players alike for over 120 years. Creating some of the most memorable and innovative instruments of our time, it’s classic arch top guitars have remained ubiquitous in rock ’n roll lore.

A rock classic in “coupe racing” size

The Casino Coupe is the legendary Casino reborn in an ES-339 body size. It’s a racecar-sized, super slick coupe version of the legendary hollowbody that since its release in 1961, has been a favorite of tone connoisseurs from Keith Richards to The Beatles, to GRAMMY winner Gary Clark Jr.

The new Epiphone Casino Coupe has all of the Casino’s trademark tone features--from neck size to tone woods to pickups--but in a “Coupe” size for easy travel. Now you can play the legendary archtop in a smaller size without a smaller sound.
