A really good price point for this, considering that we've heard of price increases in the UK later this month (Just rumours at this point) Thanks to @freddyfender for bringing that up previousy.

Even outside of that possibility, it's one that's worth a look if it your style and the price is decent.
There's a set of Dogear P-90 pickups in there and the nut is Graph Tech NuBone. (I always like to mention these things, as when I've upgraded in the past, it's always made a nice difference over plastic, mainly on acoustics though)

The full colour name is "Worn Olive Drab" Why put drab in there? It's not my go to colour, but I do rather like it on this.

Delivery is free

At A Glance
The Epiphone Casino Worn Olive Drab is a true star of rock 'n' roll. This best selling archtop design from Epiphone has seen fans since the '60s in the likes of Howlin' Wolf, Keith Richards and The Beatles. This version keeps many of the classic design elements but also does enough to make sure it'll go the distance for anyone picking up this model for the first time. With a thin 5-ply maple hollow body and a pair of P-90 pickups it is one of the most distinctive sounding guitars out there!

Features We Love:

Epiphone PRO P-90 Pickups
A pair of Dogear P-90 pickups do that wonderful thing that only P-90 pickups can do! You get that special sound with the bite that cuts through live and in a mix extremely well.

Graph Tech NuBone Nut: While the Casino might be a classic design, Epiphone certainly hasn't left it in the past! The inclusion of this nut keeps it up to date for the contemporary player without losing out on its classic appeal.

Diamond Trapeze Tailpiece: One very distinctive feature on a visual level is the Diamond Trapeze Tailpiece. Working in conjunction with the LockTone Tune-O-Matic bridge, it provides great string stability and definitely brings forth a unique and wonderful distinction to the sound.

    The dot was my first electric guitar ...it's now in Australia!
    I was well into 335's for a while ...now have a hofner very thin .
    The p90's are great sounding pickups in the casino .....never had a go with mini humbuckers ...but they're meant to be very good as welll

    If I remember rightly Paul Wellers casino was re-issued some years ago....
    Very nice....think it was about 1700 quid (edited)

    I've always wondered the difference between all of these similar shaped Epiphone guitars, well the answer is...

    "The main differences between the Dot, Sheraton, Riviera, Wildkat, and Casino are that the Dot is a cheaper version of the Gibson ES 335. The Sheraton is a deluxe version of the Dot. The Riviera has mini-humbuckers. The Wildkat is smaller, less resonant, and has P90s. The Casino is fully hollow and has P90s."

    Apparently Paul Weller told Noel to get a Casino, which he did and used on the cursed 3rd album and onwards. One does digress.

    I didn’t know that. I always thought it was because the Beatles used them.

    This is a superb guitar, I bought mine from Andertons before Christmas for a similar price.
    Build quality and setup out of the box was really good. Decent electronics with CTS pots and the P90s in a hollow body sound great.
    One of my favourites.

    Well that got bought. Wasn't in the plan but I've been longing for a hollow body for a bit.

    Update. It's lovely. ❤️ Luckily pretty well set up out the box. (edited)

    I thought the same. The colour on most other styles of guitar would be an instant "Can't do it" moment for me, even if it was cheaper. Works for me on this one though!

    Looks lovely. Don't some Gibson's come with P90 pickups, or are they different?
