Epiphone Casino Natural Electric Guitar w/ gig bag Genuine product Brand New
Description
CASINO released to commemorate Epiphone's 150th anniversary!
Since 1961, the Casino has been a rock and roll standard as Epiphone's legendary best-selling archtop.
When the Casino was introduced in 1961, it was just one model in the new Thinline Archtop series, designed and manufactured at a new factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan. (The factory was shared with Gibson, a former rival with whom we had just formed a partnership at the time.)

Things changed when Keith Richards used the casino to record a demo of "Satisfaction" at Chicago's Chess Records during the Rolling Stones' 1965 American tour.
Howlin' Wolf used the casino on his first UK tour to appear on the TV show 'Thank Your Lucky Stars'. Shortly after, John Lennon and George Harrison of the Beatles purchased the casino for their 1966 world tour, and the rest is history.
Equipped with Epiphone PRO P-90 dog ear single coil pickup and 5ply maple body.
The hollow body and P-90 single-coil pickup produce a unique sound that is both thick and delicate.
The neck has a slim taper profile that won't make you feel stressed, so it will fit most people.
Whether you play chords with clean tones or crunchy rock phrases, you can enjoy the electric sound you envision.
Comes with Epiphone Premium Gig Bag.
This is a new, officially imported product.

from 19 reviewsVery quick mailing/delivery … packaged very thoroughly with abundance of bubble wrap 👍 the item in pristine condition… very easy and professional transaction… all the way from Japan even! Would definitely do business with them again.
Have done some test, love Takatsuki and also very responsive and trusted seller! Already bought 4 300b's of them and tested well with my RoeTest v11 professional tube Tester!
I bought this guitar and I am very happy with it. It had to travel half of the globe, but the shipping was fast and the seller answered all my questions via e-mail.
The guitar itself has a chunky Fretboard, but is playable with ease. As far I can tell, the electronics seem to be all good, stamp on the pickup is right, it needs more playing for further statements.
And to my biggest surprise: the guitar came almost perfectly intonated fresh out of box.
I highly recommend to at least get in touch with the seller if you're interested in one of his products.
