@mondellodario Elitist/ Elite are Made In Japan. They make great guitars, and the Elitist/ Elite series are on par with Gibson Custom Shop! I know, I've had both. Now I'm left with a Epiphone Elite '63 ES335, and there's a good reson why:-)
@journeyquest1 Higher quality workmanship, materials, and electronics. I know the Epi Les Paul Elitist was built in Japan, and are still known as the best Epiphone Les Paul's ever made. Some prefer them to Gibson. Not exactly sure where the Casino Elitist is built, but I believe it follows the same tradition of being built in Japan and professionally setup in the US, using American pickups and electronics.
So in short it's just a superior Epiphone guitar without the Gibson price.
@LostTraveler47 dont badmouth gibson bcuz of the price theyre a proud ownership kind of like fine automobiles i love my gibson guitars only broke asses say they like their epi better
@journeyquest1 "Elitist Casino" is a "better quality" version of the Casino. And you can realize about it just looking at the price. 1500 dollars for an "Elitist Casino" and 700 dollars for a "Casino". The first one is more than twice the price of the second one.
Not really my kind of music, but your guitar sounds ace. I really fancy one of those, and your demo has made me want one even more. Feed it into an EHX Deluxe Memory Man to create some ethereal soundscapes and then you're talking my kind of language. Nice one, Mate.
Very nice guitar. I have the same one since May and love the sound and quality of materials and construction. Also have the Korean made Casino with Bigsby in vintage sunburst. Its a nice guitar too, but the Elitist is my favorite of the two.

Am I the only one who thinks the tone is terrible? At least the guitar looks cool.

dude that was awesome. I sounds like your using an effect to make it sound a little "watery". What is it?
EPICFAILSAM 2 years ago
thanks man.
water?
oh,this sounds is NOT made by effect.
It is because of the recording with a cheap mike.
sgmanfromjapan 2 years ago
oh. like during the quick hammer on pull off part when your zoomed in it sounds kinda cool. sorta like an auto wah or something.

Nice man. I was wondering how strong the pickguard is, say if you play with your three free picking hand fingers firmly pressed (not rested) onto it?
