Larsongs Posted June 15, 2020 Author Share Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) I've had one on order since Winter NAMM..... The word was June... Here we are in June.. No USA Casino. Covid-19 has really done a number on the World! Hopefully Production will resume soon... Edited June 15, 2020 by Larsongs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunset Player Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I have one on order with Sweetwater (Royal Tan). They have told me they should have them in September. I have a '61 Casino reissue that I love. A better made version with nitro finish would rock my world! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt4356 Posted June 28, 2020 Share Posted June 28, 2020 I've just seen that gueikian on Instagram posted a picture of an epiphone headstock overlay 3 days ago with the caption epiphone made in USA again. The post was liked by Mark Agnesi and the user has loads of shots from the gibson factory. They are being made, like said above they will be available soon.

LesB3 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 I'm being told Mid-April (2021), though possibility for as early as last week in March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihcmac Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The Epiphone USA Casino is listed for $2699 by almost all of the major online stores for pre-order, but I don't see any who are giving an actual availability date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dealer showed me an email about a month ago with a March 30 official release date (in store slightly earlier, as was the case with the Adam Jones Les Paul), but said yesterday that it was mid-April.

LesB3 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I checked yesterday on my pre-order and they had moved the estimated date from mid-April to a specific 3/31. I'm pegging my expectations at "sometime in April" so as to not be disappointed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt4356 Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Go check gueikian out on Instagram. Pictures in his stories of them ready for final assembly by the look of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 For reference, my USA Texan has a date stamp of February 14, 2020, and was on the shelf at my local store around March 10. I assume that means the Casino is farther along the process than my Texan was at this stage, since the stamp happens before finishing.

LesB3 Posted March 10, 2021 Share Posted March 10, 2021 Phone call from dealer today... Gibson is now telling them 30-60 days for shipment, which means we are back to April, maybe even May. American Musical shows an arrival date of March 23 on their website. Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihcmac Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 (edited) Not Inspired by Gibson, in the Made In USA Collection, new Casino now listed on the Epiphone site (Add To Cart) for $2699 Edited April 8, 2021 by mihcmac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Yeah, it's been on their site (and available to order) since March 30. I haven't seen anyone who has actually done it, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to put one in by basket and proceeded to checkout, but I wasn't intending go through with it, got the point of putting my credit in.

I did see that Sweetwater has their own photo for Vintage Sunburst, but not in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsongs Posted April 9, 2021 Author Share Posted April 9, 2021 I’ve had one on Order for over a year.. At Sweetwater.. To my knowledge there are none in Stock at Retailers ready for Delivery anywhere at this time. Most Retailers are offering Pre-Orders... The newest “estimated” Delivery date is July... But, that is not guaranteed to my knowledge... If anyone has anything more accurate than this please let us know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Epiphone site has them for sale now, Sweetwater is usually one of the first to get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pohatu771 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Gibson did not ship anything last week while they did inventory in their warehouse. These are potentially shipping to dealers next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesB3 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Today, I was told April 28th for mine. The local shop I bought from talks to the Epi rep every couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsongs Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 The discrepancies with regard to when they will for real be available for delivery are amazing! From the Giants like Sweetwater to local Shops? Is there anyone from Gibson looking at these Threads that can chime in with something accurate??? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesB3 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I actually asked a Gibson rep that question (as they have had my money since January) and was somewhat curtly told that they don't communicate that type of information to people like me and to keep checking with my dealer.

pohatu771 Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I'm fairly sure, in this video about spraying a burst, that you see a Casino at about 5:10. https://youtu.be/yVjU2H8FPhw?t=310 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LesB3 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Might be one of the new Lovell ES-330's too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are typically reserved for Epiphone-original models. The person who shot the video also shared still images of a Casino on the final check bench, so they're definitely going through the line.
