Product Detail
Epiphone has a 120 - year - long reputation for crafting some of the world's greatest and most innovative musical instruments. While models like Masterbilts, Broadways, and Wilshires are well - known, the Casino stands out as Epiphone's most famous guitar, closely linked to The Beatles. The Epiphone Casino retains its classic look, sound, and features, making it the top choice for two generations of artists such as Paul McCartney, Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher, Keith Richards, and Gary Clark, Jr. In 1961, the Casino was a small but significant step forward for Epiphone. After merging with Gibson in 1957, Epiphone shifted away from large archtops as a new music era dawned. The Casino's modern design signaled that Epiphone's unique history would continue independently. Although it resembles an ES - 335 from afar, the Casino is a true hollowbody, offering a clear, ringing tone that can be pushed into overdrive. It's perfect for both stage and studio, and you can hear it on many iconic recordings like The Beatles’ Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band and The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds. Coincidentally, while the Casino was in planning at Epiphone's Kalamazoo headquarters, The Beatles were starting their historic run at the Hamburg Star Club. By 1964, when The Beatles became stars, Paul McCartney chose a Casino for its feedback capabilities. John Lennon and George Harrison soon followed suit. Carl Wilson, Paul Weller, and Noel Gallagher are among the many who have created great records with Casinos. Like all Epiphone guitars, the Casino comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. Features include a classic mid - '60s design, Epiphone P - 90 pickups, and four color finishes. Additional Information: PLU: ETCAVSCH
Using your Epiphone Casino Electric Guitar is a breeze. First, make sure your guitar is properly tuned. You can use a tuning app or a physical tuner. When you play, hold the guitar comfortably against your body. Use your fingers to press down on the strings at the frets to change the pitch. The Epiphone P - 90 pickups give you a great sound, so experiment with different picking techniques to get the tone you like. For stage use, connect your guitar to an amplifier using a guitar cable. Adjust the amplifier settings to your preference for volume, tone, and effects. When not in use, store your guitar in a guitar case to protect it from dust, scratches, and temperature changes. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity. Regularly clean your guitar with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints and dirt. Wipe down the strings after each use to prevent corrosion. Check the strings regularly and replace them when they start to sound dull or break. Also, make sure to have your guitar professionally set up every once in a while to ensure it plays at its best.
