Compact Hollowbody electric guitar with P90 Dog Ear pickups
The Epiphone Casino Coupe is the agile sister of the legendary Casino and is based on the body dimensions of the Gibson ES-339 . With a Hollowbody body made of maple laminate and a coveted slim 1960 Slim Taper D mahogany neck, it evokes Casino Coupe the classic feeling in all registers and a striking sound of two P-90 pickups with Alnico V magnets in neck and bridge position. Last but not least, solid LockTone Hardware with Locking function provides a resonant sound transfer into the body of the Casino Coupe .
The one Epiphone Casino Coupe in the Vintage Sunburst finish.
Epiphone P90 with Dogears
Besides the popular Single coils and the juicy sounding humbuckers, the P90 Pickup exists as a healthy mixture of both worlds. The single coil pickup with classic "Dog Ear" tabs produces a powerful and warm sound with a clear treble note, reminiscent of the early days of electrically amplified guitars. Both pickups in neck and bridge position have separate volume and tone controls.
LockTone Tune-o-Matic and trapezoidal tailpiece
This Casino Coupe comes with solid Hardware -equipment in the form of a flexibly adjustable Tune -o-matic bridge from LockTone. The innovative bridge is equipped with an automatic locking system which holds the bridge by the bolt and thus ensures not only a more direct resonance transmission, but also a safe string change for body and finish. Behind it is a classic Coupe Trapeze tailpiece in the style of traditional Jazz guitars.
I just got my new Epiphone Casino Coupe, and let me tell you, I totally fell in love with it! First of all, the design is beautiful (as you can see in the picture), it feels great when you touch it. And then, the sound is really awesome as well. One thing I love about this is that its really light, and its great for playing while standing up. I definetely recommend to everyone!

Good sounding guitar. Its price / quality ratio is really good. The vintage finish is perfect and stunning. The sound is very rich, round and well suited to 60s music. My guitar is fine with a shiny cherry-colored surface and I'm really satisfied with this purchase. This was my first purchase from the Music Store and everything went great! Delivery came quickly and the price was competitive. I can really recommend Music Store and this wonderful guitar!

I was looking for my first semihollow guitar, since I wanted to learn jazz but without compromising playing rock or blues. No doubt that I did the right selection. Great p90 pick ups, providing a wide range of sounds. It feels quite good while playing, quite light, beatiful looking and perfect optimized size, compared to other bigger semihollow guitars. Beautiful sound without plugin it into an amplifier. Only disadvantage: you can check in some details that the manufacturing was made in China. Painted inner contourns are not that fine, or the cut outs not clean cutted.
Overall, super satisfied.

Back in 1995 i had an epiphone but had to sell it and i always intended to try to buy a 1970 s Casino but ind of forgot about it and went down the fender route. Finally my partner encouraged me to treat myself to a casino because the playability are suppose to be so much better than fender starts. Well straight out the box i fell in love with the look and the price was fantastic. The guitar was set up and nothing needed adjusting so off i went . Ive had it 4 weeks now and have not stopped playing and writing new songs and because its a sound that resonated with me more I've been having breakthroughs with my music. With the 3 3 pick up setting i can do a funky bass line, play rythem and rip some lead so i am over the moon and would recommend anyone to buy this guitar .

This guitar is incredible, out of the box completly ready to play, confortable action of the strings, well finished, no sharp ends on the frets and really beautiful. The coupe size is really a good choice as it makes the guitar very confortable to play while sit. The sound is perfect, just turn down a little bit the volume knob and the sound cleans in a very beautiful way, if you turn the volume all the way up you gonna hear an incredible dirt sound which I love. It's a extremely responsive guitar that fits in lots of styles, it's impossible not to like of something like this.
