Thinking I maybe should have took more time over my choice.but I love how the Casino plays! So my question is - do any other Casino owners experience the high pitched 'scream' feedback from the P90s and does anyone have any thoughts on the sustain/other diferences in sound from a Dot? I thought the Casino would be similar in sound to the Dot, but would be slightly brighter as I would like a little more a cutting sound - the frontman in the band uses a tele and the tele/dot contrast wasn't the best. I also am soon grabbing an all valve amp which should improve things.

I understand it's a completely different beast being completely hollow body and having P90s and I think I just need to experiment to get a good sound. Also the sustain is quite different to the dot and seems to be very 'low end', I suppose this is due to the hollowbody? The remedy seems to be to turn the tone control down and the result was OK but quite muddy. The main problem is if I use the same settings I usually do - bridge pickup, everything up pretty much - at such high volumes the Casino P90s scream with high pitched feedback which is not pleasant! i did read about this before I purchased but had no idea how bad it can get. However, after my first band practice with my amp cranked up (rubbish Marshall Valvestate at the mo) I noticed how different the P90 pickups are to the humbuckers I am used to on the Dot. Love how light it is, the feel of the neck etc. I always liked the sound I got from the Dot, but the playability and the build quality wasn't the best so decided to upgrade.Ĭonsidered a Sheraton, but was too heavy and bulky compared to the Casino.

Will ship elsewhere but please figure out the cost prior to purchasing.I've recently traded in my Epiphone Dot for a lovely Epiphone Casino (449 RRP) in Cherry Red. New these guitars are $599.you save $200.now that's a gonga! Thanks for looking.no trades please, Richard Free shipping to con. Comes in original factory box with the instructions. I glued the paint chip back in place and covered it with clear nail polish, so it won't be going anywhere.

I used to have a Gibson ES-330,same guitar, and nostalgia got me to wanting one again! I've played this guy about 5 times here at home and just can't get used to the slightly shorter neck! The weight is very light and the action is low and the tone is KILLER!! There is a very small nick I did lifting it too close to a table top.about the size of a small pea.see the picture.you would have to be looking for it to see it. I bought this GORGEOUS CHERRY RED Epiphone Casino new, 5 weeks ago.
