Epiphone Casino Reissue (2005 - 2022)
14 available from $725A favorite of Gary Clark, Jr., Dwight Trash and, most famously, John Lennon, the Epiphone Casino is a true classic. With a fully hollow thinline body and punchy P-90s, the current reissue gets all the twang and scream of the original. Great for country, blues, jazz and lighter indie. Hard rockers, beware - that fully hollow body will feedback. Not necessarily a bad thing if you know how to make it work for you to get some truly snarling tone.
The second production run of Epiphone Casino Reissue, manufactured from 2005 onward features a slim taper "D" profile neck, P-90T / P-90R pickups and an elongated headstock with no inlay. The neck joins at the 16th fret which differs from the earlier 1995 - 2004 run which has a neck joint at the 17th fret. - 3
