Let me just say that *ANY* Epiphone Casino is worth having. They are fantastic guitars for a very reasonable price. I got mine brand new for $700 from Guitar Center. They even sound great if you don't plug into an amplifier because they are basically acoustic instruments (with pickups). The action is smooth, the intonation is adjustable, and they are a pleasure to play. Paul McCartney once said that if he was stranded on an island and could only have one guitar - it would be an Epiphone Casino. I've had mine (Burgundy color) for 10 years and It's fantastic. They go out of tune very easily with the weather, but if you tune em' up, they sound fantastic. Just play the opening line from "Day Tripper" on one and you'll understand what I'm talking about.

The Casino really is a lovely guitar. But I'm surprised you say Paul McCartney said he'd want a Casino if stranded on a desert island. I mean, he wouldn't have electricity, would he? So, really, he'd be better off with a sweet sounding Martin D-28 acoustic, or the more loudly-projecting Gibson J45.

I love the Beatles and especially Lennon's tone. I only had a few days to nail his tone for a show that was filled with John Lennon's music. Called my local place and bought a 339 Casino. I tried my 335 and even tried my 355 BB King. The under sized Casino was perfect and close in appearance to the 330 of the great John Lennon's classic. The dog eared P90s and exact playing like John Lennon played made it real.

Thanks for the video - thumbs up and subscribed The 339 is the Coupe, just a little more compact in the body and easier to handle. Same pickups (and neck I believe). We went this way for my 18yr old son as the stock Casino felt a little unwieldy in size / shape. Coupe is light and easy to use for a longer gig. The core differences to the equivalent Gibson 339 (which looks similar) are the P90s over hum-buckers and a true hollow body - the Gibson has a centre block of wood down the middle which adds more weight (and sustain they say) which some players prefer. We like the cleaner tone of the Casino P90s (over the Gibson) although the hollow body means it does feedback if you wander near your amp / speakers. And it hums on overdrive so you need to faff with the volume between songs. Having said that, it rings like an acoustic off power (so great for practising) and it will overdrive nicely with a little reverb and a decent Boss peddle. We run it through an Ibanez Tube Screamer and a Marshall 40 DSL valve (set up to mimic the 60's series amps) - pretty easy to get the Beatles tone if that's what you are after. We are thinking about getting a Vox amp to go with the Casino at some point. It's a great guitar for the money, definitely one for the arsenal, but like I say - don't confuse it with a Gibson hollow body (or Epiphone 339 Pro) as they have a different sound altogether.

Awesome Buck or Evans 《☆》Whoever was doing the playing. I bought an 03 custom shop natural finish Chinese or Korean Casino used that came with a Vox AD50VT amp for $600. It played & sounded great when I played it at the sellers house in his driveway with lots of humidity & mosquitoes bitting. When I got it home I noticed a strong pipe tobacco smell but it was actually kind of nice. I kept it for 3 years & wound up trading the Casino in on a 2010 Gibson LP studio deluxe which I still have but watching this makes me miss the Casino a little. Funny I never made any adjustments or did any work on the Casino until I was ready to trade it off. I noticed the action was a bit high & the finish was a little dull in spots. I lowered the bridge & polished her up with automotive carnuba wax. The appraiser at Guitar center was amazed with it & I'm betting that He took the Casino home with Him that night ☻

If you watch the Get Back documentary again, you'll see it was Paul who came up with the basics of the song (bare-bones idea for the rhythm part, plus melody for what later became the lead vocal). Lennon took Paul's idea for a rhythm part and transformed it into the brilliant combination rhythm & lead part he played on the rooftop. Plus, Lennon also played the solo during the lead break, even though he'd earlier denigrated himself in the studio (and in the doc) when saying 'I've only got the one lead line.' (That struck me as evidence of a humble streak in the creative genius we knew him to be.)

Thanks Chris! Got blisters on yer fingers yet? I remember when these various Casinos hit the stores, I was shopping for a 335-style semi and an AC-15 (because, ya know, duh). I couldn't gel with the Casino '65ers they had at the stores. Ended up with this $800 (brand-new) "Legacy" 335-style guitar (gear is really expensive in Australia). As far as I know, it has nothing to do with the Chinese made Epiphone Casino reissues but, apparently, they are made by Epiphone and rebranded as "Legacy" here in Australia. Anyhoo, it was just called a "Legacy". Tobacco burst, stock 'buckers, nice neck, just a good mid-priced axe (kinda like how the Revstars are in terms of playability - not super slick fast action, just straight, solid, and workmanlike). Came with a lovely hard case, lined with off-yellow felt. The whole package had a cool mid-70's aesthetic, the sort of thing you imagine Robbie Robertson opening up before soundcheck circa 1975. So, it played well, and the Vox really liked it and it liked the Vox. Sad to say neither are still with me but does anyone else have any experience with "Legacy" brand guitars? Are they rebranded Epiphones, or just made in the same factory or, something else? I couldn't find much info online. Thanks again, Chris. Most informative.

I play an Epiphone 335 clone. I love it. Over the years, I've played alongside musicians who played either Casinos or Gibson ES-330's, which was the original the Epiphone Casino was a copy of. I've heard many, many KZitem demos of Casinos and 330's. This was one of the best of those. Bottom line, a Casino or a 330 with P-90's is going to sound great in the hands of a great player. They'll sound good in the hands of a good player. However, a brand new "regular" Epiphone Casino costs around $650. That's £502.80 or €571.42. I'm sorry, but I can't hear an additional £1500.00 improvement in the sound. The fancy hype isn't worth paying 4 times as much money. Buy a regular Casino (which is a GREAT guitar) and invest the rest of the money in a better amp, picks, strings, and a packet of crisps.

I owned the same reissue model a few years back. Sounded fantastic. I had feed back problems however at high volume obviously due to it been a hollow body. I regretted selling it.

In 1965 I bought a casino. I had a student who had one and I loved it! Beautiful tone, beautiful finish, beautifully playing. Your playing and feeling of the music out the Beatles is.. Inspiring! You play with soul, something which many good guitarists lack. My question is playing both the sunburst and natural side by side too compare the tone. Have you ever done this? And if not, can you? Or should I say will you? I really enjoyed your video! Thank you!

Don't forget there is also a Japanese Elitist version of this model, which makes everything even more confusing.

Your outro seems to have sprinkle of Albatross on it with a bit of Jimi nicely done

I've always found the Casino/335 shape to be a bit too big. I've never owned a Les Paul but I do a Strat. I now own an Epiphone Es-339 Pro and am looking for a Casino Coupe. Your playing sounded great and really highlighted the guitar for its good.

Another interesting guitar on the Imagine sessions - The blue Strat George is playing is the Concert for Bangladesh Stratocaster.
@gregstileski2887

The guitar George Harrison played at The Concert For Bangladesh was one of six Stratocasters that Eric Clapton purchased at Sho-Bud Guitars in Nashville in November of 1970. Three of them he kept for himself and three he gifted to his friends:Pete Towshend, Stevie Winwood and George Harrison. The guitar that George received is thought to have originally been a sunburst finish model that was stripped down to natural. This is the Stratocaster that Harrison played at The August, 1971 Bangladesh benefit. Harrison a few years later gifted the guitar to British musician and mutual friend of Harrison and Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan. The Sonic blue Stratocaster seen in the "Imagine" film is thought to have belonged to John. Possibly the other Stratocaster of the two Harrison and Lennon obtained in 1965 during the recording sessions for "Rubber Soul". Harrison's 1961 Stratocaster he obtained in 1965 was later re-finished and became "Rocky". Lennon's Stratocaster dropped off the radar. The Stratocaster in the "Imagine" film is Sonic Blue but has a maple fret board. It's very likely Lennon's original Stratocaster's neck was damaged and the neck replaced with the maple version (Lennon was going through a period of restoring and modifying many of his guitars at this place in time). At any rate it's not the Bangladesh Stratocaster.

Apart from loving this song REVOLUTION for years, I'm 54 and enjoying your playing, I must say I enjoyed your playing so much that someone else's playing style kinda crept into your playing or Lennon's playing, and that is Angus Young ACDC, it had that GIBSON SG feel to it somewhat like Malcolm Young or Angus Young. Thoroughly enjoyed it. GET BACK had a good feel to it too!

Nailed it Chris! Especially impressed as I always understood the fuz sound on revolution was from a DI into the board, and the muffled dark sound on the Let It Be stuff was mainly Phil spector’s mix. Did you have to adjust the sounds much after recording? It really was very good playing, btw, and shows how you groove, not just by meandering around the fretboard. Thanks

They didin´t have the technology that exist now so they had to experiment: Revolver, Sgt Pepper, White Album, Abbey Road and Let it Be. My favorite is Paul on Taxman solo.

Looove my casino ('05, Korean made w Bigsby) I swapped a guy for a MIJ tele but it was probably worth about $800 cdn. I've played one of these and it was very similar feeling to mine (save the finish on the neck and the extra weight the bigsby added) Ive played some Chinese ones though that are like chalk and cheese - totally different neck profile, crappy action. I love were Casino's fit in the mix, they're very snarly, lots of mids, dry with not a lot of sustain. (totally different from a 335 for example) - The tone you get at the beginning when you're playing Revolution is pretty quintessential Casino. Its hard to get that tone with any other guitar.

My wife (rip) gifted this guitar to me shortly after they debuted. If memory serves it was # 250 something out of 1,965 made. Cool case with all the candy. Just looked on Reverb, and folks are asking $9k for 'em...??? Jeeeezzzz!!!!! Have had about 5 Casinos throughout many, many years. Love Casinos 😎👍 One is ALWAYS within arms reach when at home. Personally think it is a unique and versatile instrument 😎👍
