Description

The Casino is an original Epiphone guitar design with class and style in abundance! First appearing in 1961, the instrument was initially popularised by the likes of Keith Richards (The Rolling Stones), The Beatles and blues legend Howlin' Wolf. In the decades since, the Casino has remained Epiphone's best-selling archtop electric guitar, with a host of modern masters using the model's signature sound to great effect — including Noel Gallagher and The Edge (U2).

Maintaining the classic design elements that make the Casino a rock n' roll legend — namely a large hollowbody construction, an elegant trapeze tailpiece and a punchy P-90 pickup pairing — the Epiphone Casino promises a scintillating sound with superb playability to boot!

Key Features

  • Hollowbody Design — Yields an open and airy tone, enhanced by the bright-sounding layered Maple tonewoods.
  • SlimTaper '60s "C" Neck — Lean profile allows for fast playability at all areas of the Mahogany neck.
  • Indian Laurel Fingerboard — Smooth and silky material, featuring a comfortable 12" radius and 22 frets.
  • Proprietary PRO P-90 Dogear Pickups — Provide plenty of mid-range chime and possess a subtly-compressed character, like all good P-90s should!
  • LockTone Bridge — Locking design holds down the strings for hassle-free restringing, and contributes to the impressive sustain of the instrument. This comes paired with the 'Diamond Trapeze' tailpiece synonymous with the Epiphone Casino model.
  • Graph Tech Nut — Low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips.
  • Included Premium Gig Bag — Protects the Casino against knocks on the road!

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Natural

Natural guitars showcase the beauty of the wood itself, with finishes that highlight the grain, colour, and character of each piece. Favoured by players who appreciate simplicity and authenticity, natural finishes let the instrument’s craftsmanship and tonewoods speak for themselves. Whether it’s the warm glow of mahogany or the bright shimmer of maple, a natural guitar has a timeless, organic look that never goes out of style. These instruments often feel more connected to their acoustic roots, offering both visual elegance and a sense of purity that appeals to musicians across all genres.
