If you're buying a Casino, then you're buying it because it has P-90 pickups! That's the whole point and if you say that you'd like to change the pickups to give a different quality/timbre of sound then you shouldn't be buying a Casino in the first place. It kind of defeats the object!

Keith Richards endorsed the Casino in ads before McCartney bought his and Lennon and Harrison bought theirs. I started playing a Casino copy in '85 and that was some of the best live plying I've ever done onstage. McCartney used his Casino on a recent album and was amazed at how different the tones were that he got. The new Casinos are definitely worth getting if you are serious guitarist.

I was at a local guitar store today, enjoying a look around while the tech guy set up my wife's guitar, and I saw this gorgeous Epiphone standing in a corner. I took it and plugged it into an amp they had sitting in the booths and started throwing out some Beatles rooftop gig songs and solos. Get Back, Dig A Pony, and I've Got A Feeling. The Epi sounded gorgeous, and I loved the resonance of the hollow body, with the raw but mellow P90 sound. Just fantastic! I put it back in the stand. Ten minutes later, I asked about it before they closed shop. They had just sold it! Probably to somebody who had heard me play Beatles on that thing, and saw me put it back. So I feel like I might have actually helped sell an Epiphone Casino today... Now I want one, badly!

I think one thing is overlooked here which The Beatles didn't', this guitar has a major advantage: it is very light and unplugged has a decent volume. When composing or figuring things on guitar, it is a hassle to plug in, plug out, switch the amp on and off etc. A full acoustic is too large and often to loud, and a semi too heavy and maybe too silent. a Casino comes in very handy. And there are only a few guitars, if even not, that offer this 'practicaliness'.

Great review Corey I got this exact guitar for Christmas a couple years ago and love it. The only caveat I'd give to your viewers is the buzz I started to hear after a while. It was driving me nuts trying to figure out where it came from until I realized the Tune-O-Matic bridge on the Chinese model has a little wire in it that buzzes. If that happens there are other bridges specifically the GOTOH brand (no affiliation) that work like a charm without that wire.

My favourite guitar. The tones that come out of it for the price are amazing. It's great for jazz, blues and some rock. A great all rounder. P90s help that of course. It's not a heavy rock or shredder type guitar and sounds more humbucker than single coil obvs. It's a joy to play. Also you can practice on it without needing to plug it in. It's lot as loud as an acoustic of course but loud enough to not need an amp to practice. A great Beatles guitar too for Beatles fans.

I adore my casino coupe. Same specs as the casino, but with a 339 sized body. Great for my 5'7 stature. I replaced the stock p90s with Lindy Fralin hum cancelling p90s, alnico magnets in the neck for a more balanced sound, Screw magnets in the bridge for a bit more snarl. It's a lot of fun - I also added a bigsby and hipshot locking tuners. It's a gem.

I have a China made Casino and the sustain and beautiful tone you already get acoustic can top the USA made Casino. I have trouble to lay this beauty down since I got it. Rest assured, it still has the versatility of the sixties Casinos and for the money, you will get an immensely versatile guitar....that, due to the fully hollow body, can also be used unplugged in hotel rooms.....remember why the Beatles used this workhorse so intensively.

Fun video - can't go wrong kicking off with a bit of Beatles! Your 61 sounds exquisite. That said, the stock Epi sounded just fine. I bought one a year ago and put in Lollar P90's / 'vintage' wiring and a bone nut. Worth it, I think to really bring out the innate character of it - probably closer to your '61 and the American made Casinos the Fabs were playing. A lot of the time I just pick it up and play acoustically on the couch - perfect for that, too. Thanks for the overview.

As always, a great demo. Man, you are such a tasty player Corey. You really make it all sound so good. You also really know how to do a true demo (and there are a lot out here who call there videos "demos" when they are actually not much more than a guitar player (or whoever) just having a chance to show off their latest hot licks. So, respect brother! Hey, any chance you could get your guitar hands on an old (same vintage as your Casino) Gibson ES-330 and A/B them for us? I bought a pre-owned (but never used) current Chinese Epi Casino back in the summer and like it. I got a good deal on it and bought it kinda on a whim. I knew what I was buying and it is exactly what you demonstrated here - a very cool and versatile axe that is a great value for the latitude of sounds (and styles) you can get out of it. But, as your old gorgeous Casino demonstrated, there is most definitely a difference between the genuine old Casino and a new Chinese one! But, I am curious what your own Casino and a vintage 330 do beside one another. If this is do-able some time, I would be most appreciative. Again, thanks for the great demo vid. Regards from Stratford, ON., CA. Cheers.

Hey Corey, thanks for the lessons. And the demos. And thanks again to Sweetwater for another free guitar. I've had my eye on these for a couple of years and haven't yet found anything quite like it. Lately I've been thinking I'll drop a dogear P90 into my MIJ Coronado clone (just haven't decided which position yet) -- it has a couple of those hot single-coils like Teiscos and Univoxes. But if you send me this one, you'd save me a lot of trouble. And by the way, I enjoy the tones Gary Clark Jr. gets out of his Casino more than the Beatles stuff (they were good, too).

This rarely happens to me, but I bought a new Casino (a red Coupe) expecting to swap the pickups for Lollards or Fralins, but realized that I like it stock. I can hear and understand why a pro would want a ‘66, but I don’t, and that makes me very happy, because it makes my guitar even more of a bargain! Mine has a bone nut, a better bridge, Ratio tuners, and it’s done. A great foil to my Tele.

7:59 I played a Casino for years, all types of music from Jazz to Rock to Blues to more modern "classical" compositions. I stumbled across the guitar volume=low, amp volume=high tip on my own while using that guitar. I eventually switched to a 335 style guitar because some venues were poorly wired and the Casino would hum like it didn't know the words when we played there. I also found the Casino hummed with some good but less expensive amps. So, maybe something to consider when buying a Casino, try it with the amp you will be playing it through.

I have one, too -- thrilled with it in every way. I had intended to get the Elitist model (even though I wasn't crazy about the narrower nut width and "hourglass" headstock, as on the mid-'60s models) but it was discontinued before I could order. I'm glad things turned out that way, because the USA model conforms more closely to McCartney's '62. Visually, I love the Casino's association with The Beatles, my first musical influence, but as a jazz player, I wanted this model as the Epi equivalent of Gibson's ES-330, so closely associated with the great Grant Green.

Just got one of the the drab olive green worn ones of these. Really like it, very vibey. It's totally different to my Sire H7V 335 style, and I appreciate it for that. It's dirtier and more articulate and doesn't over-boom on the neck pickup when you up the drive on the amp. Love the edge of feedback sustain. It's funny people complaining about feedback - when feedback and it's creative control of it is such a big part of electric guitar playing history. Definitely planning to swop out the pickups for Lollar, Mojo or Creamery ones, and the pickguard for a black one. You have some guitarists that go between 335 type guitars, and sometimes players now using Telecasters for articulate sounds. To my mind, the Casino lives in it's own space, somewhere in between those. It can do some lovely Steve Cropper soul lines (Paul Weller's 90s recordings on Casino are good examples of that). But can also do wiry scratchy country lines, a bit like an earthier, dirtier tele sound. Then the classic rock n'roll sounds just spit out of it. Which I guess is why a player like Keith Richards was known for playing both. And his sound had a consistency. Maybe partly because he went into dropped tunings on his Tele, so it went into that dirtier / growlier Casino soundworld anyway.

Great video Corey! Gonna have to start calling you Jazz Man! I learned a ton about jazz tone in this video…thanks! I just opted for a Larry Carlton Sire H7 semi-hollow body. It’s a great guitar, but would love that casino with those P-90’s!

Loved your jazz playing and the volume control cleans it up really nicely too.

If you want to pay somewhere between the MIC Casino and the $3k+ USA made Casino checkout the Eastman V64. You get Lollar P90’s , optional Bigsby , Ebony Board, and a killer “worn” finish. I love mine. The Lollars seem a bit darker which is cool. Provides a real vintage tone.

Corey - you pee me off. I've been playing the guitar for years and when I hear you playing, I feel like throwing my guitars away. You ROCK!

I’d actually love to have the variety of tones that a Casino could add to my playing.

Love the Casino... Great to practice on your sofa... no need for an amp... Plus it just looks cool. And.. above all... the John Lennon collection.
