After watching many review videos, I just purchased a Casino. I like your style, buying both, but I went with just one 😂
This was probably the best comparison/review video I found!
You did a great job showing off the differences practically. Real examples, relatable song choices, great references, thorough understanding of both instruments... This was a fantastic video!
Great job!
hi, im also wanna buy casino but Sheraton confused me. which one do you suggest in terms of just quality. im a beginner for blues/jazz.
Been waiting for this video for months now. Glad I stumbled upon this vid. Thanks.
14:09 Oh that's amazing Interpol uses a Casino! Sounds so good! I love this video thank you! Your outro was gold! haha
Excellent comparison video. Really appreciate you finding all the different examples of each and playing them side by side to hear the difference 👍
Wow, what an awesome video👍🏾 I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation and that Gary Clark solo toward the end of the video was pure 🔥
Beautiful video man. Love your energy and the info you give us. Greetings from Chile ✌☀️
Excellent: video, playing and reasearch. Thank you, it was exactly what I needed.
Found this extremely helpful! I could tell you put a lot of quality work into this and I very much appreciate it. Your excellent song choices and guitar playing steered me towards getting the casino. Many thanks
Loved the variety of artists you used in your examples! (also....your playing is just fine and you absolutely nailed the Oasis and Kinks tones!)
An excellent review, you got right to the heart of the differences with a range to pieces of music to give us an excellent appreciation of the differences.
Informative and thanks for the review. It takes me months and much research before a new guitar purchase and after hearing the review I'm going for the Casino.
Believe it or not, the Edge from U2 has had a Casino that he used on a few songs from the mid 1980’s. He shelved it for a while there and started playing it a lot more circa 2004 to present day. He’s used it on songs such as “No Line on the Horizon”, “Miracle Drug”, “Cedarwood Road”, “Original of the Species”, “One Tree Hill” and “Breathe.” He’s a very specific type of player and he practically changes guitars for every single song, but I thought it was interesting that he was a Casino player.
one of my favorite videos regarding both gutitars! You are the best! Great hug and compliments from Brazil!
So glad I found your comparison. It answered every question I had about the differences between these two guitars. Very useful. Thank you!
This is an excellent comparison of the two guitars. Haven't seen better! Thank you :)
Awesome video sir! All the info you provided was very helpful and opened my mind towards a lot with these two guitars. Safe to say the Epiphone Casino will be my first semi hollow guitar. 😁🤙
Thank you for such a great video. Informative and really enjoyable. Can tell you put alot of time into this.
Great history lesson! Thank you for the comparison! Exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks! Great video!keep em coming!
Brother thank you for this video. In the end I just got both as well. Take care and keep up the great work!
Great video! This helped me decide. Definitely going with the 335. I really enjoy the sound whenever i've tried one. Plus I prefer the thicker neck. Thanks again!
Great video. I’ve been watching a lot of your videos lately and now a subscriber. You keep the reviews interesting and mainly focusing on the guitar. I decided on the ES335 in the same cherry finish. It’s a great playing guitar. Thanks
Noice playing Kyle!!! Thank you from Canada!!
Now that was a well made comparison video. Thanks for that.
what a cool review man - good work
Thank you for this comparison and review! I've often wondered about these two models. The way you went thru and described the two guitars was great. Thanks again...
Thanks glad you liked it! I had a lot of fun making this one. They’re both cool guitars and I have really been enjoying playing them again!
@@onemoreguitarchannel I liked the tribute to D. Yoakam too!
Really informative and I loved the background on famous players and the examples. Casino for me!
This video (and his funny end) brought you a new subscriber! Well done!
Great video review, thanks !!
What a brilliant video ! Thanks very much for going through the differences of these two beauties! I really enjoyed you showing which famous guitarists have played these instruments - you have excellent taste ! Oh and nice playing too :)
Thanks!!
Agreed.
Fantastic video, Kyle. Thanks for going through these similar looking, but wildly different spec'd models. I have a Casino on preorder (since March!) with CME, and this whets my appetite even more. My 335 is a fantastic guitar too.
Thanks! I had to wait 11 months for the Casino to arrive so I picked up the 335 when I found a deal. I ended up loving both of them. Not sure why the Casinos take so long though.
One point: The centre block on the Epi is actually maple not mahogany, although the neck is mahogany. And a player who initially came to prominence in the last few years using Casinos is Gary Clarke Jr. although he tends to use Gibsons now.
Amazing comparison ! Thank you so much! you gave me all the objective information I was looking for. 🤩 Merci !!!
the interpol stuff sounded spot on, great review
Very good démonstration , bravo.
Sir, thanks you for your video! Really appreciate your work.
Right on! Love the history and the riffs! Sure am Jonesin’ for a 339! Thanks!
Great review!!!
Great, helpful vid, thanks!
This was a great video. I like how you made it and, you talked a bit about them - the important differences people actually will care about, you played them (pretty straight, without a million effects) showing yeah, they sound different, then showed other people playing them.
It might sound dumb, but like.... this is what all comparison videos should be like. Format was fucken great.
Nice video and great guitar playing!
Good video man. Worth watching 👍
great vid comparison
thank you for posting
Gary Clarke Jr is simply AMAZING, even when only playing 5 strings! His high E string said NO MAS in this video! I saw him live and what a treat that was, AMAZING show.
I've owned a Casino. I've owned an ES-339. But, I sold both of them. Now, I want a Casino. But your video still helped me as it just made the differences so clear and it also validated what I hope to get out of the Casino. Thanks. 😎
Dude thanks for the Marcus King turn on! That was awesome. So satisfying.
great video. I want both of them!
I almost got both. Casino first, as my love of music is influenced by The Beatles. And then I found a 12-string based on the ES-335: the Ibanez AS7312. In both cases I replaced the tuners (with locking), nuts (with TUSQ XL) and dyed fretboards (to rosewood/ebony) which made them feel, play and look better to me. ;)
Great Video Pal !😊
Hell yeah, great mention of Daniel Kessler! He really deserves a custom one! Great vid!
nice production and comparison!😎
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Good job!! I am now a subscriber! Thanks
Thanks!!
Excellent video!👍
Love this guy. Cheers!
Thankyou Kyle! Your best video yet in my opinion! And I know you don't take requests!! But one day could you consider reviewing a BC Rich warlock?
Thanks so much! I’d like to try a Warlock one day. They look awesome and have some cool specs! I typically don’t like slim necks but there are so many cool guitars that have them I may have to get used to it haha. I’ll see what I can find. Cheers!
Great vid fella! Thx.
I have both and the Casino is my number one....just fits and the weight is amazing...unplugged it's a great songwriter guitar as well....having both covers a lot of ground in my world.. ..live I would gig with the 335 but the Casino would be all over my recordings...it's got a hell of a tonal range and P90s clean on 7 volume got a lot of hair at 10...love that factor...love P90s
I played both at the local guitar center. I chose the Casino because of the neck width. It seemed more playable. Your video reinforced that my selection was right for me.
amazing video!!! cheers!
This video is awesome!!! Thank you!
Great video! I have a blue casino worn and an epi dot.
This certainty is a good resource on the sound difference thanks 🎸🎸🎸☮️
Cool video. Nice nod to Interpol 👍
Great video. very informative. What's your take on the 335 style Japanese Yamahas - the SA series?
Nice review.
Good video. I ended up buying the casino coupe. This vid was part of my decision making process. So... thanks for that. :) Anyway, I get it in 2 days, I can't wait, lol.
Nice review and great playing. No gymnastics and shredding, very tasteful leads and chords. Show casing the sounds and tones of the two guitars.
Great comparison and informative, thanks! Epiphone has some great affordable guitars,
That's why I like my Epiphone ES-335 Pro so much. That was an exclusive for Guitar Center. The humbuckers have coil taps, so you can turn it from sounding like humbuckers to sounding like P-90's.
I love the sound and feel of the hollow body Casino over the es 335, which has the center block in the body cavity. Just has a better resonance.
Thanks for showing me the differences between the 335 and the Casino! I have to admit that I like the brightness of the pickups on the 335 more than the pickups on the Casino.
Nice !! Thank you so much Sir
I have the same worn olive drab casino, love it!
Great video! I own the same casino and I love the tones. Was a little disappointed with the neck, however the weight of the guitar is a major plus. I'm impressed with the tones obtained. I play blues, reggae, jazz and classic rock. All attainable on this guitar.
Thanks! It’s a fun one. The P90s and hollow body give it a cool vibe. It can cover a lot of ground as long as you manage the gain/feedback.
@@onemoreguitarchannelI see another semi/hollow body to your left. Which one would you keep if you could only have 1?
Great idea showing Marcus King and Gary Clark Jr.! I love those guys!
???
what's the song/clip from marcus king? that's rly nice stuff
I got a D'angelico Excel ES335 style guitar and a now an Epiphone Casino and really love both sounds as I love the older vintage guitar sounds through tube amps...especially the newer indie bands seem to like the casino and the Fender Jazz master and Jaguar guitars with P90 and hum bucker pickups.
Brilliant video I’ve watched this your casino and 335 videos a dozen times and ended up buying both based on your videos, nice playing combined an honest review 👍thank you , please keep em coming
✌️🧷🎸
I've never played any of these hollow/semi-hollow electric guitars. Was really impressed how the Epiphone Casino opened up acoustically. I would not have imagined the level of difference that you pointed out. Both are Ephiphones which is definitely one of my favorite brands so you can't go wrong. 🎸 One guitar I've come across on UA-cam as I was looking at a number of Squiers was the Yamaha Pacifica. Regardless of whether it was the cheapest PAC012 or one of the higher models, everyone seems to rate this guitar pretty well. Not just as a starter guitar; but just as a decent guitar period. Would appreciate your thoughts on those.
I tried a Pacifica at a local store and it was very affordable (under $200 I think). I liked it enough I went back the next day to buy it to review it. It was gone haha. For the price I was definitely impressed. I’m sure they get better as you go up in price too, there were some cheaper parts on that particular model. I have a Yamaha Revstar and it is one of the best guitars I have, so from my experience Yamaha guitars seem to be great value for price. Cheers!
The Pacifica 612 is the best strat style guitars I have after a few minor adjustments.
I really love these because of their versatility. I have a Squier Strat now and I feel so limited with it. When I wanna play something acoustic then it really doesn't sound good. I'm really considering this to be my next guitar. I really love blues and indie music so I'm thinking it'll be a better fit for me. Awesome video, actually way more helpful than the other ones!
P
A Strat is actually perfect for blues and indie, ask Jimi Hendrix, SRV on the blues side 😜
@@richdukes9632Eric Clapton, John Mayer, probably a huge variety of guitarists. Lmao
I can fuly add to the versatility of the Casino. Since I have it for a week by now, I have trouble laying my axe down. Whether it is Black Sabbath, Beatles, CCR , Ac/DC or CSN & Y, the guitar fits,,,,and IMHO the Es335 will have more trouble to do, also due to the more acoustic possibilities of the Casino. It is a dream come true to me.
Casino is a great guitar, but it has a HUGE flaw… the upper fret access. Definitely not a “the only guitar I need” for that fact. Definitely worth owning though,
You helped me decide that i need both!
Im a Gretsch lover and have a old 6119, a newish 5420, and an oldish Historic Series 3141.
I just need 1 more Gretsch before i buy that Casino.
I have the ES 335 and glad that is the one i bought love it
Thanks So MUCH for this great vid. I was hesitating between one and the other and your insightful video totally helped me make my choice. Casino it is ! ( My personal preference for what I play. Now, is there a large sound/ quality difference between the made in the USA, Korea or made in China Casino's ?? Thanks again, keep up the great work .
Awesome video
I prefer the 335 myself. The sound is more clear & on-point. When the Casino is compared to the 335, It sounds a bit muddy like others have mentioned. I do like being able to easily access the higher frets on the 335 also. .. But yes I agree the Casino has a different sound to it, but the 335 has a different sound also. I find its tone warm and soothing to the ears.
Fantástico vídeo. Siempre Casino!
Nice video. Was waiting to hear Dave Grohl mentioned on the 335 artists list.
The Sheraton has a beautiful headstock.
Great vid
Thank You!!!
excelent video!
I have a Casino as my main guitar - I play clean blues. I also have a Joe Bonamassa Epi 355. Both have their own character and I love both. But checkout the Epi Riviera Custom P93 - you'll be amazed at the range of sounds that that is capable of!
I’ve bought a 335 and it’s absolutely beautiful ❤
Jim James of my morning jacket main guitar is ES 335 and he has an epiphone signature model for 899 which comes with hard shell case. On that Dylan basement tapes collaboration thing he did with Mumford and son singer,Johnny depp, some other musicians, he’s plays the solo on the Kansas City song, and it sounds soooo amazing.
I personally own a casino and it’s only electric guitar I really use, beside my shell pink strat
The Casino, hands down! Cheers! :)
The Casino has such a unique sound with P90's and full hollow body. Just picked up the same one you have there and love the tonal difference from all my other solid body humbucking guitars. A great must have in the collection...just need to work on replacing jack and switch and should be good to go.
Great comparison, thanks. The 335 is more electric, brighter and punchier, and the the advantages of the Casino is it's more acoustic and lighter weight.
Nice show.
Great video! You need more subscribers 🙏
what's the Marcus King song in the clip? Cant find it anywhere! so nice
