Well, I guess! Cos its so freaking beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Those of you that know the Epiphone Casino are aware that it has a full hollow body ( yea I ditched the Valensi Riviera in my prev post cos somehow I couldnt bring it in) and it feedbacks easily under high overdrive. It is meant to be a jazz guitar - but it can accodomate decent amount of overdrive..

family shot! I really wanna adopt the Stop At Two policy..

The Casino sounds wonderful.. although I don't like the fact that it has restricted upper frets access - meaning I can't solo past the 17th fret without looking like I'm doing some serious fondling.
