Epiphone Casino Cherry Review

Posted onby

Lewis Turner reviews the Epiphone Casino semi acoustic for Issue 44 of guitar interactive magazine. Read the full review here https://www.iguitarmag.com/. Sure I like the Gibson satin cherry one but for $1000's less I chose the Epiphone. If you are looking for a semi hollow ES335 style guitar, that is GREAT and won't brake the bank, this is it. I didn't want coil splitting humbuckers and I like the dot inlays on the fret board. #10 Epiphone Casino Hollow Body Electric Guitar, Cherry Red. From Keith Richards to John Lennon, the Epiphone Casino has been used on really famous records by some of the world’s most noteworthy musicians.

P-90 Single Coil Pickup

Legendary Tone

First introduced in the early 1950s, Gibson's legendary P90 single coil pickup produced a raw powerful tone that helped define the blues and rock and roll in their formative years. Today, the P90's traditional combination of high output and brilliant tone is still considered a favorite among many top musicians. Known by such familiar nicknames as the 'Soapbar' and the 'Cobalt,' the P90 still cuts through any type of music, all while displaying amazing tonal sensitivity for everything from blues and rock to mellow jazz riffs. It's perfect as a vintage replacement, and features vintage, braided two-conductor wiring. It's also fully wax potted to eliminate any chance of unwanted microphonic feedback.
