Casino Action Is in the Moment – The Lottery Takes Days I think this one’s pretty straightforward. For example, if you start playing some of the infamous video slots that are available both in bricks and mortar casinos and in online casinos, the beeping sounds, the dazzling, mesmerizing animations can put you in a state of trance. Feb 16, 2011 Nick from Gibson goes through some of the differences between the popular Epiphone archtop models including the Casino, Sheraton and Dot 335. Comparing the Epiphone Casino. The Epiphone Casino was originally build in Kalamazoo Michigan in the same factory as the Gibson ES-330. This was soon after Epiohone was purchased by Gibson. The early history of the Casino is therefore quite similar to the ES-330.

Messages: 7,735 Likes Received: 967 Joined: Jul 14, 2007 always looking for an excuse to post a pic of my '64 ES330 as mentioned, the Lennon 'tag' makes the old Casinos worth as much or more than the 330s, back in the day, they were the cheaper cousin to the Gibson. IIRC the Casino is 5 ply where the 330 is 3 ply. IMO the 5 ply cuts a bit of the natural tone, but works a bit better under amplification. Interestingly, I took my 330 out to band practice awhile ago - normally I play one of my LPs - our other guitar player commented that it had the best tone he'd ever heard. Have to be careful with a hollow body and a Marshall to watch out for feedback and hiss from the old P90s. (for anyone that doesn't know, a 330/Casino is a hollow body, not a semi like the 335s) Beautiful guitars, absolutely amazing to play, and still a real bargain in the vintage Gibson market. I prefer pre-65s, if you find a nice one for the right price, grab it. dwagar , Oct 15, 2009 #4needlespauls V.I.P. Member

Messages: 29,932 Likes Received: 5,214 Joined: Jul 5, 2007 BASTARDS!!! I just ordered a '67 ES335 today. To bolster my decision, I'll let you know that I talked to the guy while he put both of them in his hands. He said that the 335 played and felt better to him, and that he preferred its acoustic tone. It was also 0 cheaper than the 330. It has old school Grovers, which I like. They both had issues. The 330 had a fretboard repair, the 335 has a headstock repair (not break - just crack). It was a VERY tough choice. I think I'll get a 330 eventually as well. I couldn't pass up this '67 335 for .5k though. In the mean time, I'm pimping my Korean Casino. diceman , Oct 15, 2009 #8needlespauls V.I.P. Member

I should have the 335 by Tuesday. Again, VERY tough call. The 330 was a BEAUTIFUL Sunburst as well. Dark back. Oooooooh, it was sweet. It was k. They seem to be easier to find deals on them, though - most Casinos and 330's are in the k range. Most 335's are considerably more, so when I found a deal on one with plenty of 'my kind' of issues - I had to spring for it! diceman , Oct 15, 2009 #10diceman V.I.P. Member

The long winding road of a rock maverickThe Epiphone Casino might be the House of Stathopoulo's most iconic instrument thanks to its association with The Beatles. In fact, two Kalamazoo designed guitars--the J-160E acoustic/electric (check out the classic Epiphone John Lennon EJ-160E ) and the Epiphone Casino--together share the distinction of being the only two guitars heard on every Beatles recording session.But over the last decade thanks to a diverse group of artists like Gary Clark Jr. , Radiohead, Paul Weller, and Brendan Benson of the Raconteurs, the Epiphone Casino has transcended its Beatle connection and become a must-have for any player's collection.Though the Casino, first released in 1961, was essentially Epiphone's version of the Gibson ES-330, the Gibson version never caught on like the Casino. Whether it was the times or the number of instruments produced, the Casino--a full hollowbody with two P-90s (another Kalamazoo invention)--was destined to be thought of as an Epiphone classic. And like any great guitar--by design or by accident--it's perfect just the way it is.Today, Epiphone makes Casinos just as they did at the Kalamazoo factory in 60s. 'Our modern Casino is based on the best vintage models we could find,' said Epiphone President Jim Rosenberg. 'The only difference is that today, every Casino is consistently great--perfect neck, great sound, and great look, where as vintage models can be vary quite a bit.'And if you want to really step back in time, check out the 2014 Elitist Ltd. Ed. '1965' Casino Outfit which more than rivals any vintage models. Epiphone Elitist acoustic and electric guitars are made at our Epiphone factory in Japan that specializes in handmade, highly accurate reissues made with time honored methods and impeccable attention to vintage detail and quality, including period-correct USA pickups and electronics. Epiphone Elitist instruments also feature traditional hand rubbed nitrocellulose color finishes that enhances a guitar’s look over time with gradual shading and fading patterns that are as unique and personal as your own story. Today, Epiphone’s Elitist Series instruments are some of the most sought after by players of all styles, and the Elitist factory in Japan is considered one of the premier instrument factories in the world.In 1961, the Epiphone & Gibson factor in Kalamazoo, Michigan was one of the premier instrument factories in the world and the Casino was merely another instrument in a series of 'Thinline' electrics first introduced in the late 50s that helped announce a new era for Epiphone after it became part of Gibson brands. The idea of a Thinline electric that had the look of an archtop was not that much of a departure for Epiphone since the company had established a stellar reputation (much to the annoyance of Gibson) as an excellent archtop builder. But where as most of the original Thinline series like the Sheraton and the 335 featured a mahogany center block on which the pickups were mounted the Casino held the distinction of being a true hollowbody. It was also less expensive than other Gibson Thinline models, which caught the attention of young rockers like Garry Tallent, future bassist of the E Street Band.'Epiphones were great guitars back then and affordable,' recalled Tallent. 'Even today, whenever I go to a guitar show, if I see an Epiphone electric or acoustic that's in great shape, I get it. They always sound perfect.'As for just who originated the Thinline series, that remains somewhat of a mystery. 'There were other companies at the time like National who were making something similar,' said Walter Carter who published The Epiphone Guitar Book, a history of Epipohne, in 2013. 'If it were Ted McCarty's idea he certainly would have taken credit for it (laughs). But the Casino's popularity in particular had mostly to do with The Beatles. It was and is a great guitar for rock and roll with a different sound.'Epiphone re-created the original (1961) Casino in 2011 with the same 16' wide body made of 5-layer Maple/Birch and a 24-3/4' scale mahogany SlimTaper™ neck with a Rosewood fingerboard attached using the traditional mortise and tenon neck joint. The 50th anniversary Casino also featured black Gibson USA P-90 pickups and a slightly modified Tremotone tremolo that works much better than the original. Epiphone's 50th Anniversary Casino (a favorite touring guitar for Gary Clark Jr.) also featured 16 frets clear of the body and came in a Sunburst or Royal Tan finish.Over the next few years, there were small changes made to the Casino. Epiphone moved away from the 'bullet' logo in 1962 to the pearloid-inlaid Epiphone script logo that remains today. During the time that Paul McCartney purchased his Casino in 1964 and John Lennon and George Harrison purchased their Casinos before the Revolver tour in 1966, fingerboard inlays changed from dot to parallelogram inlays and the tortoise shell pickguard changed to white. Pickup covers, which were nickel from 1963-1964, changed to chrome.The Beatles discovery of the Casino came just before Christmas in 1964. McCartney told Vintage Guitar that he was inspired to buy a guitar that could 'feedback' after he spent an evening at John Mayhall's house listening to records. ' You'd go back to his place and he'd sit you down, give you a drink, and say, 'Just check this out,' said McCartney.'He'd go over to his [tape] deck, and for hours blast you with B.B. King, Eric Clapton... he was sort of showing me where all of Eric's stuff was from. He gave me a little evening's education. I was turned on after that, and [bought] an Epiphone.'John Mayall probably played McCartney cuts by B.B. King as well as razor sharp 45s on Cobra Records by Magic Sam and Otis Rush , both regular Epiphone players. 'I showed him (McCartney) my hollowbody guitar that I'd bought when I was in the army in Japan in 1955,' Mayall told Vintage Guitar. 'When people get together and listen to records, they talk about all kinds of things related to the music, so obviously we must have touched upon the instruments and it struck home. He got a hollowbody after to get that tone.'Recording feedback was already a part of The Beatles sound at this point with the release of 'I Feel Fine,' which was recorded in October 1964 and was inspired by John's 160E feeding back against an amp. The Epiphone could feedback too, but thanks to smaller body size, a guitarist could more easily control the tone and 'howl' of the feedback by turning the Casino away from an amp or 'playing' the feedback with the guitar's volume and tone controls.McCartney still brings out his original 1963 Epiphone (shipped from Kalamazoo, Michigan on November 1, 1963) in concert for 'Paperback Writer' and select cuts from Sgt. Pepper . Radiohead Producer Nigel Godrich, whose pal Thom Yorke plays a 1965 Casino, singled out McCartney's Casino as his favorite guitar while producing Chaos and Creation In the Backyard. 'If I had to choose one electric guitar,' said McCartney, 'it would be this.'McCartney's Casino or ES-230TD, featured an early Gibson-style headstock that would be changed to the classic Epiphone 'hourglass' headstock by the time George and John bought their Casino's (George's, like Paul's, featured a Bigsby tremolo).In the heyday of the British Invasion, the Casino was also Rolling Stone Keith Richards' main guitar (who used his to record 'Satisfaction') and Brian Jones can be seen playing one on the cover of the reissue EP of Got Live If You Want It. There are also tv clips of The Hollies, The Kinks, and the Moody Blues using their Casinos on shows like Ready, Steady, Go!The Casino was discontinued throughout the 70s and when Epiphone got back into action in the 90s, both vintage and new Casinos enjoyed a renaissance thanks to Paul Weller (whose 1964 Casino is seen at right), Lenny Kravitz, Noel Gallagher of Oasis, U2's the Edge, Jeff Tweedy of Wilco, Brendan Benson of the Raconteurs, instrumentalist William Tyler, and of course, Dwight Yoakam who has carried the flag for the Casino for years before designing his Dwight Trash Signature model.'I always loved the aesthetics about the Casino. There's something about the white pickguard as well as the sound... I really fell in love with it.'P-90s are key to the Casino's canny combination of chime and grit. The P-90 is a touch sensitive pickup by nature and is perfect for both lead and rhythm sounds. P-90s carry more 'weight' sonically than the typical single coil pickup and have the effect of sounding especially 'electric' when combined with the Casino body. Just listen to Beatle tracks like 'Paperback Writer' and 'She Said, She Said' to hear how nuanced a basic chord can sound when played on a Casino.Gary Clark Jr. is probably today's most outspoken and visible Casino fan. Since signing to Warner Brothers, Clark has been seen with both a standard Casino, an Elitist, and a '61 50th anniversary model. And now, Clark has his own Ltd. Ed. Gary Clark Jr. Blak & Blu Casino featuring Gibson USA P-90 pickups.'I had my eyeballs on Casinos for a while until I finally got one,' Clark told Epiphone. They're all so amazing. 'Blak and Blu' with a Bigsby! They're a dream.' Read our feature on the Blak & Blu and read our new interview with Clark here .Even if The Beatles had not discovered the Casino, the list of fans would still include virtually every major pop, country, blues, and rock artist of the last 50 years. 'It's really a perfect electric guitar,' said Jim Rosenberg, 'it can be clean, it can be knarly and it sounds terrific at low volume and feeding back. And it's a lot like Epiphone, too. A bit of a maverick.'Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus. blog comments powered by Disqus NEWSLETTER SIGNUP Subscribe Please enter a valid e-mail address Please enter a valid e-mail address Features View All Studio Time at Abbey Road Enter to win a new Masterbilt® Century De Luxe with Hard Case Free Masterbilt Gigbag Offer!

1,316 Sep 24, 2008 Cornwall England Dots are brilliant VFM but I'm not a huge fan of those pickups, well somethings gotta give. If you can afford it, go for the Inspired By Casino, Gibson US P90's and electrics, superior to the standard stock Casino having tried them side by side. Casino is also acoustically more vibrant as it doesnt have a wooden block under the bridge area. Thus the Casino is more prone to feedback but I've gigged mine and its sort of manageable Use my Inspired By a lot for writing/recording, it really has great character and is so nice to sit and play 'unplugged'.

I usually stay at a higher standard mlife property and have the play history required so I'm looking to introduce myself to a hotel contact, but the property I will be staying at this time list their team as either marketing executives or casino hosts.
Would it be in my interest to contact one or the other? Who would be of more help to me? Is one a more senior member of staff?

I would think a host could do more for you. They're more hands-on. Marketing is more generalized.

I would think a host could do more for you. They're more hands-on. Marketing is more generalized.
I'd say that the Marketing Executive has more power to bend policies or go beyond what a computer authorizes the host to do. Properties use different terminology between host, executive host and Marketing Executive. Difference Between Casino And Dot Jobs
I don't know any casino that insists its patrons have mere 'hosts' and that Marketing Executives go unmolested by the curious.
So titles may vary but the fact is hosts get promoted to something higher and if you qualify you might as well start with an older more experienced Host With Fancier Title Who Also Has Other Mini-Whales.
Jimmyburke1927
It's not really clear but the impression made from the websites etc are that the marketing executives are a more senior position than a casino host.
I could be way off here but it seems strange to have two people with different titles doing the pretty much the same job unless there is reason for this i.e. responsibility for different levels of player or...... actually I can't think of a second, but I could be wrong again.

I think that they basically different levels of the same job. Of course, this may involve different responsibilities, but that's true of most careers -- when you get promoted, you have more responsibility, but there still may be some overlap with your old responsibilities.

Anyway, anyone who has their information listed on the website is fair game to be contacted -- that's why the information is listed. If you contact the 'wrong' person I'm sure that they will redirect you.

My strong impression is that marketing executives deal with promotions, like getting players all set when the player accepts an invitation to a tournament that includes some or all RFB. A lot of times, it's a complicated offer, like a 50 gift card, room for 3 nights, tournament entry, 200 cash, 10000 reward credits, and there's a lot of different paperwork that needs to be generated to make all that happen; some to the cage, some to the front desk, maybe the pit boss or the tournament director, etc. I get offered 2-3 promotions per month, per property, and they tell me to call this number for a marketing executive (#), or call your host. I'm kind of middle-tier, so I see a lot of ok promotions, but not the very top tournaments and giveaways.Administrator
A host has a particular list of clients, will set reservations at any hotel in the company, get show tickets, approve comps either in advance or at checkout (beyond the use of your points), and can also do the above. They keep a file on you about your likes and dislikes, your past visits, personal information beyond your ADT etc. A host looks at your play and can get you put on lists for great promotions you haven't earned on a speculative basis. So, from my experience with both, I would strongly recommend you get a relationship with a host. I could be wrong about the hierarchy; the host might have to go to a marketing executive to get approval for things beyond basic RFB, and I just don't know about it.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I have hosts (at different casinos) with the following titles (copied from email signatures)
'Director of Player Development'
'Executive Host'
'Executive Casino Host (Casino Marketing)'
'Casino Marketing Executive'
I am pretty sure that these are all just different levels of the same job (or maybe some are the same level with different names at different casinos). All have set me up with comped rooms, limos, etc before -- standard host stuff.
