She plays beautifully and was well setup straight out of the box. I love everything about this guitar from the sparkling cleans when played softly, to the snarl when you strum a little harder. Don't get me wrong, I still love my Strats and always will, but the Casino is getting all my attention right now. I am proud to say that I am now in the Epi family.
Something caught my eye with the Blac and Blu and I figured I would give it a try. I've owned Gibsons and a bunch of Fenders and have always called myself a 'Fender Guy', they have always fit me and my playing style. I've been playing for nearly 30 years and have never even picked up an Epiphone. I preordered mine on March 12th and just received it last Wednesday May 20th and let me tell you, it was well worth the wait.
