First introduced in 1961, the Casino was just one of several new thinline archtops designed and produced at the company’s adopted new factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan that it shared with one-time competitor and new partner, Gibson. Since 1961, the legendary Casino has been Epiphone’s best-selling archtop and a rock ‘n’ roll standard. A gorgeous finish tops off this classic instrument in style!
The Casino totes a pair of Dogear P-90T Classic™ pickups for its electronics system, which perfectly compliment the resonance of the 5-ply Maple body with Basswood top bracing. The modern Epiphone Casino is a true-to-form reproduction of the original '61 model that became so famous.
1961 marks the birth year of Epiphone's most successful archtop ever: the Casino, a thinline archtop that has achieved legendary status among rock 'n' rollers for its classy aesthetic and undeniable rock 'n' roll tones.
