The frets here are clean- just professionally set up with action of 3/32' at the 12th fret. Nothing that affectst the performance whatsoever. This Epiphone is in excellent condition- typical oxidation on the tailpiece/pickup covers, polish swirls, and one small compression on the back binding(pic). The look here is fantastic- sunburst finish, aged body/fingerboard binding, parallelogram inlays, Deluxe style machines, and chrome hardware.
Satin finished for a fast feel with the 12' fretboard radius providing effortless bends. The mahogany neck here balances the tone of the maple beautifully.87' deep at the 5th fret with a C profile- this is the perfect balance between a 50's and 60's neck. Each pickup has its own volume and tone control so you can really dial in your sound to perfection. From crystal cleans to neck position warmth to slightly crunchy overdrive- it's all in here. Dual P90 pickups grab that natural tone and add their famous character. The hollow design provides excellent acoustic resonance while the maple adds in some nice note articulation.
This Casino features a hollowbody design with maple top,back, and sides.
