Thanks to its close association with The Beatles, the Casino is one of Epiphone's most iconic models. While it looks a lot like a classic ES-335, the Casino is a classic in its own right, able to deliver distinctive and clear, ringing tone that can handle being pushed into overdrive when needed. The five-ply maple top, back and sides are supported by basswood bracing and the face has been mounted with two Epiphone PRO-P90 pickups, each with dedicated volume and tone controls. While the LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge and vintage-style Trapeze tailpiece take care of stable tuning, the modern 12 inch fretboard radius and the SlimTaper 60s C profile of the mahogany neck support snug and comfortable playability. If you're looking for a semi-acoustic guitar with an instantly recognisable look, sound and feel, then the Epiphone Casino is a safe bet on a straight-up classic.

This is a wonderful guitar. I am ancient, and have lost count of the number of instruments that have passed through my hands over the years, and this is one of the very best. Ignore the low price; this Casino plays more sweetly than some guitars for which I’ve paid many times as much. I now understand why so many people describe it as their favourite. The P90 pickups are articulate and rich, and will deliver the chimey grit you’ve heard on so many songs if you change your ways and start actually using the volume knob on your guitar. Dial it down to 3 or 4 and set your desired volume on your amp. The fit and finish are exemplary; in my experience, Epiphone is producing guitars to a standard that would have been unimaginable ten years ago, and the Casino is not a Gibson second-best. It’s a thing in its own right that you’ll be very proud to own.
Couldn't even receive the guitar!!
Lies with delivery times meant I have been waiting for over a month and a half. The delivery date would say 4 days, then the next, 4 weeks.
De Casino klinkt heel mooi voor blues of rock, hij is heel variabel in klank. Zelfs zonder versterker klinkt hij erg luid, ook is hij best licht door zijn hollow body. Voor mij is dit echt een aanrader! :D

Wilde al een tijdje een Casino kopen, twijfelde omdat ik dacht dat voor deze prijs de kwaliteit etc. niet zo goed zou kunnen zijn. Niets is minder waar, deze gitaar is erg mooi, goed afgewerkt en speelt uitstekend. Geluid is erg veelzijdig. Ik speel voornamelijk blues, maar het is natuurlijk ook leuk om Beatles liedjes te spelen en dat klinkt uiteraard erg goed. Echt een aanrader!
