Classic Thinline hollow-body guitar
The US-built Epiphone Casino follows the classic hollowbody construction method, which combines comfortable handling with first-class sound characteristics. The slim thinline body with top and back and sides made of maple-poplar laminate lies lightheartedly on the player and colors the sound of the electric guitar with a characterful acoustic timbre. The not too strong "Rounded C" profile of the glued mahogany neck also promises familiar playing characteristics on the 22-fret rosewood fingerboard.
Gibson USA P-90 "Dogear" pickups and 3-way circuitry with Orange Drop capacitors deliver premium vintage tones.
Gibson pickups with hand-wired circuitry
Like the sought-after vintage originals from the wild sixties, two Gibson USA P-90 single coil pickups handle the electrical tone conversion on the Epiphone USA Casino. Fitted with classic "dogear" caps, the single-coil pickups deliver a dynamically responsive tone at the guitar amp with surprisingly powerful output that expertly captures the unmistakable character of the semi-resonant guitar and is ideally suited for sounds at the transition from Clean to crunch. The hand-wired 3-way circuit with Orange Drop capacitors also grants full control over the tone of the electric guitar.
At the headstock in '60s Kalamazoo design, Vintage Deluxe ensure precise and stable tuning of the semi-acoustic guitar.
Traditional Hardware
Of course, Epiphone completes the Casino from the USA Collection with traditional Hardware in beautiful vintage style. From the classic Thinline Trapeze tailpiece, the strings pass over an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge, which guarantees precise intonation adjustment and comfortable string placement. The '60s Kalamazoo headstock also features Epiphone VintageDeluxe tun ers for precise Tuningaction with unshakable stability.
