Not saying that's all it can do, but I'm thinking that the Casino is at its best with that moderate overdrive setting where the guitar is at least on the edge of producing feedback, or better yet, where it's trying to feedback but you're controlling it with selective string playing and muting. Well, I ran it through the G-Dec 30 Blues Edition tonight and I really think 'that tone' is it for that guitar. So I pulled it out of hibernation recently to give it a go for maybe the fourth time.Ībout all I know about Casinos is that John Lennon played one on Revolution, but I figured they must be more versatile than that. And definitely not as chimey as I would have guessed I'd get from a true hollow body electric and P-90s. I found the tone to be a bit indistinct and somewhat bland.
It was tossed aside for awhile because it was not love at first strum. Now the one I have is the Elitist so it's supposed to be a good representative of the species. I rip open the package, squeal with delight then rush off to the next package. When it comes to guitars, I've been a bit like Ralphie's little brother in the movie 'A Christmas Story'.
I've had one now for awhile now (39 months to be exact)
