This Epiphone is an inspiration machine! With a serial number dating back to the first year these thinline, hollow-body guitars were designed and produced in the company’s then newly adopted factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan, this Casino features two original dog ear P-90 single coil pickups—giving it all the raw power and brilliant tone that it had when it came off the line six decades ago! Come to CME to try it out today, and keep checking back for your next source of inspiration at #CMEFreshVintageGear! (And, remember: we love trade-ins!)

More about the Epiphone Casino!
The Casino, also designated by Epiphone as model E230TD, is a thinline hollow-bodied guitar with two Gibson P-90 pick-ups. Although generally fitted with a trapeze-type tailpiece, often a Bigsby vibrato tailpiece is used in its place (either as a factory direct feature or as an aftermarket upgrade). Unlike semi-hollow body guitars such as the Gibson ES-335, which have a center block to promote sustain and reduce feedback, the Casino and its cousin, the Gibson ES-330 are true hollow-bodied guitars. This makes it lighter, and louder when played without an amplifier, but much more prone to feedback than semi-hollow or solid-body electrics. The Casino neck joins the body at the 15th fret instead of the 19th like on the Gibson ES models. Early versions of the Casino had a spruce top. Through 1970, the Casino headstock was set at a 17-degree angle and the top was made of five laminated layers of maple, birch, maple, birch, and maple.[1][3] With the exception of the John Lennon models, subsequent Casinos have been made with 14-degree headstock angle with five layer all maple laminated tops. Current versions have a laminated maple top, sides, and back, and a mahogany neck.
