Just like the originals
It's made its mark on rock 'n' roll. The Epiphone Casino's elegant silhouette was made legendary by '60s artists like The Beatles, Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and Ray Davies of The Kinks. This USA collection recreation captures every detail of those retro masterpieces, from the authentic headstock shape and lettering, to the period correct tailpiece and 'E' stamped pickguard.
And even better, you're getting the unmistakable Casino appearance with the benefit of modern engineering, so you can enjoy that timeless aesthetic with none of the reliability drawbacks.
Stunningly vibrant tones
Just like the originals, the USA collection Casino packs some seriously powerful tones. Hosting twin Gibson P90 dogear pickups and featuring a resonant, acoustically bright hollow chamber with quarter sawn spruce bracing, it boasts sonics that are rounded and full on every setting.
The single coil Gibson P90s can easily take your tone from chiming cleans to overdriven barks, and a perfect for those vintage rock 'n' roll purrs which the Casino is loved for.
Exquisite playability
It's one thing to look the part, but it has to feel authentic too! That's why Epiphone have installed the USA casino with a fast playing rounded "C" neck. It's extremely comfortable for those longer playing session and boasts a premium rosewood fretboard for slick riffing.
That fretboard is 12" in radius, so is suitable for complex chord work and scorching lead playing. Hosting 22 medium jumbo frets, you can string bend with ease and enjoy a comfortable action up and down the neck.
