The body itself is a little bit larger than a regular electric guitar, so it does take some getting used to. This makes chords and single-note lines ring out while being played. It has a rich acoustic/electric tone thanks to the two F-holes on the front of the guitar. The body of this instrument is made out of laminated maple. It has two humbucking pickups, which give the guitar a rich tone. It’s a great option for rock, blues, country, jazz, rockabilly, and other guitar styles. The Casino Coupe by Epiphone is a hollowbody acoustic/electric guitar. Best part is, it’s the original cover so you’d never know visually, but audibly it’s a night/day difference.☞ Learn more about electric guitars! Epiphone Casino Coupe Review: About the Epiphone Casino Coupe Those epi P90s don’t hold a candle to the 50s winds I just installed. Ask the seller for a discount, remove the pickups, send them to Lollar to have them install a custom set of their 50s wind P90s into those covers ($300).

If you like the guitar I would HIGHLY suggest doing the following. I’m the guy who also had a broken bridge pickup.

Thanks a lot and sorry about the newbie questions! Other than some minor flaws in the binding and finish, and some parts feeling generally cheap (and control knobs that all face different directions vertically), I would prefer to keep this guitar as it fills a niche that not many others do. I do think this is a very unique and beautiful guitar and while it definitely won't be my last semi-hollow/hollowbody, I prefer to fix it and give it a good setup and adjustment instead of returning it unless I have to. I can also feel/hear something loose inside the body around the control knobs when I pick up the guitar, it seems to be shifting around whenever the guitar is moved. Secondly, the bridge pickup seems to have 'sunken' into the body, you can see it in the picture that the screws are inside the pickup instead of protruding through it.

I've mostly played solidbodies for the past 16 years so I'm completely new to this type of guitar.įirst of all, the guitar has a very strong and distinct buzz when you play it, this gets so strong when you fret the 3 bass strings around the 9th fret that it cuts through to the amplifier/mix where you can hear it too.

While the guitar is a beauty, the neck plays decently enough and the P90s sound alright, I have some reservations about it and wanted to ask if a few issues that I noticed are things that are normal and fixable with a good setup and/or regular usage, or whether they warrant returning the guitar.
