To hear John's track for this video in its entirety and learn how he built the tones in the Helix world go here. It's amazing: • I Played an EPIPHONE ...
I need to thank the good folks at Carter Vintage for their permission to use the clip of R.J. Ronquillo playing an original '69 Casino.
I'd like to think Mick Taylor from That Pedal Show for giving his permission to use his edge of your seat Casino playing. See the entire video here:
• Epiphone Casino Pickup...
Rhett always writes a great demo tune and I need to thank him here for his permission to use a bit of it from his video: The Casino Sound: • I Get Why The Beatles ...
The Casino has been on the Short History list ever since I started playing my own fully hollow double cut, the diminutive ES-390. The video covers a good bit of Epi history to explain the relationship between Epiphone and Gibson as well. I hope you like it.
Thanks for watching.
All the best,
Keith

Thank you Keith. The Casino is a great guitar that stands on it’s own. It’s not a poor man’s Gibson, it’s proudly an Epiphone with it’s own pedigree and history that can compare favorably to any guitar.

@piggycity 2 года назад

I agree 100%! As a proud owner of a 1967 casino they are just distinct in their sound and pedigree

@heinzr9734 2 года назад

I couldn't agree more. I bought my 1967 Casino 20 years ago from a guy here in Germany who only played it at home in the living room and he had bought it new in 1968. It is very special and if there would be a guitar with the fantastic Casino sound without howling on stage, it would be very nice. But the good thing in life is that you can't have everything at once. Even if the Casino is a thin body, it is the most acoustic electric guitar in my opinion. And it has the kind of sustain that lingers in the heart for a very long time, even when the sound is physically gone.

You seriously should make a channel reading mistery novels, or narrating some other stuff, the voice tone you use for your videos is super cool. Sir, again, thanks for the great content. For some reason RU-vid stopped notifying me of your new videos and your live videos, I've fixed it I think, but I am surprised. Do you think you could make other music related themes as "A Short history" Like "Blues, a short history" and start with Robert Johnson, how the blues made it to England, returned to the USA through Clapton and then again to England via Hendrix and how it exploded? Even a series, since I assume it is a LOT of work a topic like those. Thanks a lot for the video, I prefer your videos over Beato's (No disrespect to your friend, he does great videos I also watch, yours are just better)

Great video, but it tugs at the heart a bit. I was wanting a 335 of some sort for long time. I was just about to pull the trigger on a Casino but then found the P93 Riviera. The big draw to me was semi-hollow, a middle P90 and a Bigsby. I loved that guitar, unfortunately my wife dropped it and snapped the neck. I got it repaired but only got to enjoy for a few short months. She's on her second repair and I'm just hoping she's still playable. Otherwise it'll be retired as a wall decoration.

Upgraded my worn casino with SD antiquity pickups. The guitar is built so well that it leaves you with so much room for upgrade, but the pickups are a tad too hot for my liking. Pickup Shims are essential for a casino imo, they balance the output and tone of them really well. Lollar and Mojotone both make a really great P90 shim.

I've come to be a single coil guy over 42 years of playing and the P-90 works so much better than a humbucker for me that I'm now looking at hollow bodied P-90 guitars. This video came out at a good time for me. Actually looking at the Eastwood Tuxedo.

@mschroeckenfuchs 2 года назад

I treated myself with a Casino of the worn series last Christmas, absolutely inspired by 'Get Back' to some degree. I mostly play a Fender stuff in recent years and the Casino is my first hollow body guitar. By now I have to say it might actually be my favourite for everything but the snappy Fender coil tones or high gain stuff! The thin 'worn' finish allows to feel the wood grain all over neck and body, it's fantastic!

I already own two acoustics, two resonators, a Weissenborn and four electrics. I can almost hear my wife saying, "Not another guitar!".

@damagecontrol60 2 года назад

I like the Casino but it is big for me… so I have two smaller Epiphone guitars - the compact size, hollow body Casino Coupe with trapeze tailpiece and chrome dog ear P90s, and the 339 semi hollow with a center block, black plastic cover inset P90s. I put a Deusenberg tremolo on the 339… I love them both! The Casino Coupe has a warmer sound and the 339 has hotter pick ups with a little bit more treble range to it, but I use an EQ pedal to get the best out of each one of them. Yes I also have an Epi Les Paul and an Epi SG… Yes, all made in China, all inexpensive, solid quality and they fit my budget. As for the video: Great presentation as always. I love the cross promotion with other fine players and presenters like Rhett and RJ! I also like the program punctuated with playing examples. Keep it up Keith!!!

@edryba4867 2 года назад

@@geertzwager1309 No, it came with whatever humbuckers it’s got (they sound terrific!). I like them so much, I’ve never considered changing them. I did have it retrofitted with a gold Bigsby B-7 (to match the guitar’s existing hardware) in 1989, though, along with the Bigsby Tune-O-Matic style bridge that came with it. At the time, it cost around $879 for the unmodified Sheraton. The Bigsby was under $100, installed. And in the bargain, I had a set of gold Grover tuning machines put on it to replace the “No-Name Deluxe” tuners it came with. Gibson has since moved production of the guitar to China, so I have NO idea what a new one is like.

@geertzwager1309 2 года назад

@@edryba4867 I see, nice! I would guess though that P90's are exactly what distinguishes the Casino from the Sheraton. I mean, P90's are basically single coils. Being used to humbuckers you might be in for a surprise if you played a Casino!

@edryba4867 2 года назад

@@geertzwager1309 Well, there’s that… and the fact that the Sheraton II is semi-hollow. That’s the same kind of construction as a Gretsch Country Gentleman, except on the Sheraton, the F-holes are REAL and not painted on, as they are on the Gretsch. I have one of those, too. On the advice of my good friend Damon Williams (no relation to Keith), who is a Lefty, and is touring in the Midwest and South, and has a left-handed Country Gent, I put flat wound strings on MY gent. That was a BIG change to the sound and feel of the Gretsch. But my Epi has always had round wound .010 - .042 strings on it. That gives it a “light” feel when playing, but you can really “dig in” when you crank up the gain on the amp’s preamp, or if you’re using a distortion pedal. The semi-hollow construction keeps feedback at a minimum and allows you to TURN IT UP in ways a Casino just DOESN’T! If you’d like to hear the kind of stuff Damon is playing, some of his music is available on SoundCloud right now.

Made in Japan in the early 70s with a bolt on neck I changed the tuners and replaced the adjustable bridge with a bone saddle it's a prince amongst guitars. I also built my own "tribute" to the Casino/Sheraton/ES330; semi-hollow, double cutaway, carved top, thinline with a single P90 and a neck from another MIJ Epiphone acoustic.
