T = Thinline, V = Vibrato, D = Dual pickup. Several variants are offered, each with different suffixes, describing them. The Casino pictured is quite different from the example shown in the 1961 Epiphone catalog - this example has the parallelogram block inlays replacing the simpler dots, nickel-plated metal pickup covers (instead of black plastic) and a trapeze-style tailpiece instead of the Tremotone vibrato unit. The guitars shown represent these models far better than the previous catalog in terms of hardware and appointments. ![]() Details of the Epiphone Sorrento (E452T) and Epiphone Casino (E230T) Epiphone equivalents of the Gibson ES-125TC and ES-330TD thinlines.
