After watching many review videos, I just purchased a Casino. I like your style, buying both, but I went with just one 😂 This was probably the best comparison/review video I found! You did a great job showing off the differences practically. Real examples, relatable song choices, great references, thorough understanding of both instruments... This was a fantastic video! Great job!

Believe it or not, the Edge from U2 has had a Casino that he used on a few songs from the mid 1980’s. He shelved it for a while there and started playing it a lot more circa 2004 to present day. He’s used it on songs such as “No Line on the Horizon”, “Miracle Drug”, “Cedarwood Road”, “Original of the Species”, “One Tree Hill” and “Breathe.” He’s a very specific type of player and he practically changes guitars for every single song, but I thought it was interesting that he was a Casino player.

I've never played any of these hollow/semi-hollow electric guitars. Was really impressed how the Epiphone Casino opened up acoustically. I would not have imagined the level of difference that you pointed out. Both are Ephiphones which is definitely one of my favorite brands so you can't go wrong. 🎸 One guitar I've come across on KZitem as I was looking at a number of Squiers was the Yamaha Pacifica. Regardless of whether it was the cheapest PAC012 or one of the higher models, everyone seems to rate this guitar pretty well. Not just as a starter guitar; but just as a decent guitar period. Would appreciate your thoughts on those.
@onemoreguitarchannel
Жыл бұрын
I tried a Pacifica at a local store and it was very affordable (under $200 I think). I liked it enough I went back the next day to buy it to review it. It was gone haha. For the price I was definitely impressed. I’m sure they get better as you go up in price too, there were some cheaper parts on that particular model. I have a Yamaha Revstar and it is one of the best guitars I have, so from my experience Yamaha guitars seem to be great value for price. Cheers!

Whether it is Black Sabbath, Beatles, CCR , Ac/DC or CSN & Y, the guitar fits,,,,and IMHO the Es335 will have more trouble to do, also due to the more acoustic possibilities of the Casino. It is a dream come true to me.

Nice vid. Been playing Casino's since 2005, and it is a great guitar. However, unless you're buying a used Elitist (not made anymore), Lennon model (also discontinued) or a vintage model ($5-10K), you WILL have to mod your MIC model with a better nut, better tuners, and much better pickups. MIC tuners are famous for not staying in tune. MIC pickups are generally muddy-sounding cheap wax potted pickups that don't do the guitar justice. Pop in some Duncan '65s, Lollar's or call Curtis Novak to wind a custom pair for you. Also something very important to keep in mind when buying a Casino: It will be dipped in the THICKEST coat of poly imaginable; your tone will sound "choked". I stripped my poly off. It was a slow process, but it really opened up the guitar... it seems to breathe. The sound is brighter, and the sustain is vastly improved. You'll now have a guitar that sounds like it cost you $2K. No joke. My lead guitarist plays on a Gibson Custom Shop 335 (and a bunch of other vintage instruments) and he was amazed by the tones I was getting. Again, the Casino is a great guitar, just be prepared to put a little money into some upgrades.
@mortonwilson795

Yup, the recent version is still a lovely 'acoustic' guitar, great neck etc. I switched to Lollar P90s / 50s wiring & a bone nut and it's superb . . . I would say on a par with the recent US made Casino (which is way more expensive) altho maybe not quite up there with the vintage models you mention.

Think I can live with the electronics. All of the above was quite an improvement. At least for now.
