I'm loving that NASA sticker on there! It's quite classy!

I think that's the John Lennon-signature Casino. Congrats, it's a beauty!

Oh, thanks.. I was really worried would my 'reviewing' skills be good.
Tried chords and notes and something like that.
Thanks a lot.

My VOX is great.. I really like it.. I have played trough some amps..
and like the vox sound the best, would be very happy to get an Vox ac15 (the real one) but oh well, someday.

And my Epiphone is just the original 'cheap' Casino..
I was surprised how great it was out of the box.. string height was right on.. and the tuners are good.
Only thing I would like is the bigsby, that would be my 'project' sometime in future.

And the sticker, yes I made a whole bunch.. and the 'E' sticker came off, so I thought that old NASA would give a nice vibe.
hah.

Thanks once more.. really glad You liked it. (:

Ha! This makes me miss my old AD30VT. These are incredibly polyvalent and sound suprisingly good for the cash moneys.

Wouldn't buying a Casino always be a gamble?

When you press the accelerator past halfway it doesn’t actually go any faster, but the engine noise distorts

I wanted a Casino, but a fully hollow construction, Epiphone P90s from 5-10 years ago that always got mixed reviews, but mostly Epiphone necks that I generally hate eventually put me off

Terrible, but still funny

I don't even know what the second post said. And I followed internet etiquette by adding a winking smiley to indicate the light-hearted nature of my comment.

Gomer gave a very decent answer as to what he was thinking in his original musings, but edited the post down to a bumper sticker.

Just a little fun, mate; this is the Shortscale way! No laws against thread resurrection :wink:

I sold it in 2016, dont know really why. Wanting to get a Gretsch all the time, but ok.
Now I have a Cort Source its a Casino/335 replica..
I like the sound/pickups more but the build quality was nicer on the Epiphone..

Still need to maybe take my noob review off Youtubez
