The Beatles made anything look cool. It was not until I got to play a Casino that I realized why John was playing one to begin with. More on this later. The guitar’s sales doubled in 1965 and 1966. Some attribute this to the Beatles. This has been called the “Beatles Effect” where people would see the Beatles wearing or using an item and the sales for that item would shoot up. George Harrison and John Lennon were both seen playing Casinos during their final tour dates as a band. It is not hard to jump to the conclusion about their influence. Even at this late date I still experienced that very same “Beatles Effect” and purchased my guitar. Listening to the song Don’t Let Me Down written by John Lennon the snarl of the rhythm guitar just wanting to break up into overdrive gets me every time I listen to it. It is something basic and visceral. Video link in this video’s description. The Casino was introduced in 1961 and sold until now with a short hiatus in the early 70s. The Epiphone Casino does not really have a direct Gibson model that it is a copy of. A lot of folks would compare the Casino because of its exterior looks to an ES-335. The 335 would not be the Gibson model that the Casino is most like. The Gibson ES-335 is a semi-hollow bodied guitar with a center maple tone block in the body and two hollow chambers on either side of the tone block. The Gibson ES-330 is an archtop guitar with a hollow body. There is not a center tone block of wood in the body of the 330. Like the ES-330 the Casino is also a hollow bodied guitar. When you look at both the modern ES-330 and the Casino next to each other the Casino appears to be a shorter or smaller guitar. With the modern version of the ES-330 the neck join is now at the 19th fret like the 335. The Casino neck joins the body at the 16th fret. This means the neck is set further into the body making the guitar look shorter. The guitar like the others stills has the 24.75”- or 628.65-mm scale length. My guitar is made in China. New the Casino is listed for $699 and used the guitar goes for $355 to $549 depending upon condition. There is a US made version of the Casino that sells MSRP of $3499. Quite the driver to make a person give Chinese made guitar a second look. There is a less expensive version of the Casino line called the Casino Worn series which retails for only $499 new. I have not done a comparison between the two models yet. The body is a double cutaway hollow body made of maple with a gloss finish. This model of the Casino comes in three colors currently: Natural, Casino Turquoise, and Vintage Sunburst (the finish on my guitar). The fit and finish of the guitar is excellent and I cannot find any flaws. The guitar is amazingly light weight. My guitar weighs 6 pounds and 7 ounces or 2.94 kilos. I immediately thought there would be neck dive. How could you have a hollow body guitar and not have neck dive. I put a strap on and for the most part the guitar balances. There is a slight tendency to lean toward the neck. The guitar is basically an acoustic. The resonance of the guitar unplugged is amazing. Comparing to a semi-hollow guitar like a 335 the difference is easy to discern. When unplugged, there is much more volume, bass, and mid tones when you play a Casino as compared to a semi-hollow bodied counterpart. The Set-neck is made of mahogany with an Indian Laurel fretboard. With the SlimTaper ‘60s D shaped neck it is comfortable to hold in your hand and play. The fretboard has a flat 12-inch radius. Cosmetically the binding and pearloid parallelogram inlays really make the guitar stand out. Saying parallelogram gives me PTSD from the days of me being in high school and being miserable in Geometry. The guitar has a Set-Neck with a neck join at the 16th Fret. There are 22 Medium Jumbo frets. I found no sharp edges on the sides of the fret board and there was no fret rocking anywhere. Nut Width 1.679" or 42.67mm and the nut is a Graph Tech NuBone nut. The scale length of the guitar is 24.75" or 628.65 mm. Pickup Configuration is Single coil Single coil with two Dogear P-9OT ClassicT™ P90 pickups. The electronics consist of 4 pots, a 3-way toggle pickup selector switch, and an output jack. I have a love affair with P90 pickups in general. To me they are the fundamental basis for garage style punk and are the pickups on a lot of my favorite guitars. Some of them only have a single P90 pickup installed. What else do you really need? The Casino is an absolutely beautiful guitar and a blast to play. My recommendation is I would pickup a used model for a good price and you will have a guitar the most definitely punches well above its price. #el casino #casino codere campeche #casinò online nuovi #casino quemado en monterrey #casino online bono por registro
