The Casino differs from other Epiphone semi-acoustics such as the Dot and the Sheraton in three main ways. Firstly, it is completely hollow meaning there is no maple centre block to anchor the pickups. This makes the sound more breezy and jangly. This is also enhanced by the P90 single coils as opposed to the PAF-style humbuckers usually found on models like this. Thirdly, the neck is joined to the body much deeper than with other models. This changes the whole way the guitar feels and plays, giving it a unique personality that is truly enjoyable.
