The headstock retains the original Kluson-style tuners which turn smoothly and hold pitch exceptionally well. The truss rod is responsive and ideally adjusted, and the neck is straight, offering low action in every register and effortless playability.

The original medium jumbo frets retain their full factory height, showing moderate wear beneath the plain strings on frets 1-5 and lighter wear until fret 7. The smooth gloss finish on the profile feels great on the palm, and the bound rosewood fretboard is a particularly dark, tight-grained cut of this wood, featuring pearl trapezoid inlay. The neck has a a particularly chunky and round C-shaped profile carve for a Casino, offering ideal substance and generous shoulder, measuring. We've had this Casino professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar and dialed in for optimal action and intonation with 10-46 roundwound strings. The guitar is featherweight at only 6lbs 10oz. Whether you want dynamic cleans or thick overdrive, these pickups can produce either with ease and with a refinement far beyond most other modern Casino reissues.

The P-90s pickups are wound to vintage spec with plenty of midrange bark, and have a glassy, percussive quality. Stacking up well against the Elitist line, this VT-VS model is expertly crafted and extremely well-kept over the last quarter century.Īcoustically, the fully hollow all-maple body has an articulate airy tone, capturing both the clear note attack of maple as a tonewood and the warmth of the hollow construction. Vibrato-equipped from the factory, this Casino has been upgraded with a genuine USA-made Bigsby B7 and was crafted at the Peerless factory in Korea. Up for sale, a 1996 Epiphone Casino VT-VS model in exceptional condition and in perfect working order, complete with the original hardshell case.
