How could it? It hasn’t been vibrated for half a century.īut I viewed the Epi as a platform and changed everything on it. I didn’t expect the Casino to measure up, and of course it didn’t. The 125 is an amazing guitar it sounds huge. I bought it because I didn’t want to gig anymore with my going-on-sixty-year-old ES-125TDC - it’s getting a bit delicate. We all know a Chinese (or Korean) Epiphone is not a Gibson.
