gypsyseven Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Can´t wait to get that baby....the first music i was listen to when i was 3 were the Beatles so i always thought i have to get a Casino... I´m just a little afraid if i can handle the feedback while playing loud/overdriven.... We´ll see... I will report and post some pics when she´s here...

bonzoboy Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 You'll love the Casino for sure,I have 2 and love them-a 1965 John Lennon with a very low production number and an '08 natural.I don't find feedback a big problem if I stand far enough away from the amp however it can become a bit problemic when overdriven at higher volumes.The Casino sounds so sweet when played clean you'll probably rarely want to overdrive it anyway.

Oh man, i can´t wait to get it...what do you mean by "however it can become a bit problemic when overdriven at higher volumes".Do you mean in a band siutation?

Upiory Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Congratulations! You'll love it. It's the easiest guitar I own for plugging in and getting great tone. And I've left it stock. Please update us on your unfolding love affair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmasek2 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 Oh man, i can´t wait to get it...what do you mean by "however it can become a bit problemic when overdriven at higher volumes".Do you mean in a band siutation? The guitarist in my band uses various epiphone semi and fully hollowbody gutars including a casino. Also, he liberally uses a distortion pedal. His proximity to the amp (about 7-10 feet in front with his back to it) and having stuffed the cavities with a dense, but pliable, foam rubber keeps him from feeding back. When he wants that extra feedback howl he just turns toward the amp. Otherwise, there's no feedback issue. Good luck and na zdravi! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonzoboy Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 The Casino sounds great with a slightly overdriven AC30 tone such as the tone that John and George got on Paperback Writer,I could listen to it that way for days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gypsyseven Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 ...the tone that John and George got on Paperback Writer,I could listen to it that way for days. Absolutely, i´m a Beatles fan since 30 years now (currently i´m 33)and was always fascinated by there guitar tone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
