I purchased this guitar from Norm yesterday. It is a beautiful guitar, exactly as they described. The employees and Norm himself could not have been more helpful and friendly. A huge thank you to all of them.

Just when I thought your Eleanor Rigby couldn’t get any better, you start galloping. And THEN, you start syncopating the gallop. And THEN you solo over the syncopating gallop. Geez Lemmo. Surgical Precision on this one.

It’s incredible

The version of “And I love her” is 🙌🏻

Every guitar player on the planet can learn a few things from Lemmo, if you don't own a casino you are truly missing out on some great tone and this one is no exception. One of the most expressive guitars ever made. Thank you Jen for bringing it to us each and every day. Bravo to you both.

My golly, I genuinely did not want that to end! It was like a mini concerT. Norm, give that man a raise!

As a lifelong Beatles nut it's so pleasurable to hear these from Mr Lemmo...amazing

And i love her is such a beautiful melody 🥰

The sound of the guitar music that brought most of us to the dance. Clear bell like tone translates well in this guitar.

The depth of those early hooks is undeniable infectious with melody. Here it comes. Good luck be with you. Some wicked tone.

Lemmo, that's some of the finest Beatles' instrumental interpretations I've ever heard. The R. Krieger-like organ runs on Eleanor Rigby was sublime. Love to see your shows - make sure you come to Byron Bay in Australia sometime, I'm sure we'll all have a blast! ☺ These Lennon Casino reissues were really nice back in the day when I was looking at buying one; it was about 2007 I think, Gibson-made and priced accordingly: AU$5500/US4000-ish. A week later I found a new Rickenbacker 330 (very hard to find them new in Australia on the wall) in another shop 100m down the street. Still have it and it has a neck like a 58 Les Paul, no kidding. They're out there if you look!

Beautiful Axe and you did a great job showing it's potential LEMMO !!! Thank you Jen !!!

What an amazing video - Michael’s playing is fresh and delightful-very creative arrangements. He needed and deserved a cheering crowd.

Love the Casino! I have the Worn Olive Drab one, and it’s one of my favorite guitars. John mainly played with the bridge pickup. A huge staple of that early 60’s pop/rock sound!

Ooooooooh sounds super!

The talent oozes from him and I’m so jealous

Lovely Guitar , I bought my John Lennon Casino 1965 RI in 1999 when they issued 1965 around the world , to this day I play it almost daily, love the look and sound

Dammit Lemmo. I get both infuriated and inspired every time I get to watch you play. Infuriated watching you make it look so easy but inspired by how great you sound. You belong on a stage sir, no doubt about that. Wish every Lemmo Demo was a mandatory half hour minimum. Awesome 👍🏻👍🏻

Genuinely concerned we’re going to lose Lemmo to fame & fortune! His demo plays are a highlight of my week 😊

Norman's is full of rich famous people. Everytime I go I see a celebrity in there....

That was masterful👏. On the last tune I got just a tinge of a hint, a slight taste of a tone of Steppenwolf. Which gave me an idea. I hope it gives one to Michael too. These videos are such a delight!! Thank you all.

Mike has such a great touch on the fretboard.....very intuitive, and effortless. 🎸👍

Gorgeous playing Michael, wow, did not want that to end! Elegant approach to playing the classics and making them your own!

Beautiful, I have my Daddy's 64 Dot I will send a picture as soon as I figure out how LoL 🤣

Lovely Beatles renditions. And I love Jen's enthusiasm too. Just like John and Paul, what a great team you two are.

Great playing as always Michael. I hope your gig tomorrow night will be a big success

Love your take on these classics. You make that guitar sing.

beautiful, tasteful playing, great tone from an outstanding guitar. Made me listen to my Beatles CDs again

Love the casino brilliant playing Michael thanx

So very well done.

2:44 Wow - such beautiful playing! Thank you! 🥲😍

Beautiful playing🎉

Wow stunning rendition so expressive and melodic

Just beautiful…. I love the pre Sgt Pepper’s the best…

Love the guitar and you made it sing. Superb renditions.

Las Guitarras de Norman son increibles, y el amplificador Fender Super Reverb qué utilizan en los videos suena Genial. Good Video of this Epiphone Casino❤

Beautiful tone, well played lemmo !

What a guitarist

Please keep showing us the way Lemmo

Lemmo's light gets brighter by the day.

Michael really amazes me sometime. Very tasteful playing.

Whatta byute! I like that style burst over the teardrop.

Absolutely fantastic playing!

I liked and I love her a lot!!!!

Lovely playing and tone

One of my favorite episodes of GOTD!

Excellent !!

Sublime playing man!

Amazing guitar

I don't know who you are, but you're an artist. came for the casino, liking this guy! brilliant.

I'm not a betting man, but the Casino, especially a few steps up the model line, is winner!

Sweet Jesus, that Eleanor Rigby jam was amazing!

Hi Michael 😎👍 Some sweet melodies coming out of that Casino! Thanks for the Demo.I love that guitars looks also , it’s a Classic. Please tell norm I said thank you and that I will take good care of it.😁🌅🙌☮️🖤🙏🕊🦋🕊✌️

a soft but great tribute to the Golden B..., many thanks

Amazing playing.

That Eleanor Rigby arrangement is crazy good! Amazing stuff!

Beautiful playing, sir

Yes yes the great Epiphone 👍

Great playing! I liked the Eleanor Rigby and Come Together!

Excellant Guitar Skills-Lemmo

Bruh that hybrid picking shit he did was fucking insane

What a timing 😮 biblical lemmo

John Lemmon

Nice demo !

One thing I definitely enjoy it is the way that Lemmo interprets "Eleanor Rigby". That interpretation sounds so complete without having to duplicate the orchestration of the original from 1966, turning it almost into a "gay, mad world". Hehehehehehe!! Then, there's the guitar itself. I have noticed that many Beatles cover/tribute musicians choosing this model instead of the Rickenbacker John played during the first half of the 60s keep the sunburst intact. For every three, I had an outsourced version of the Casino with the natural finish because I thought that was faithful to what John ended up doing with his in '68.

Good for u Lemmo

Nice playing

You should do a Beatles instrumental cover album. Can't get enough!

i hope we get to see mike's mom and dad at norms and he and his dad jam 2gether. be so cool.

awesome

Sounds..n .i. c .e

wow.

john lemmo

that was biblical immense player

Lemmo, great demmo

think i was convinced 🎉 idk if its the guitar or the playing!!! great style!!

Sounds awesome, well done! 👍🏻

To me the 'Early Beatles' epoch would be the Gretsch and Rickenbacker period, with the Casino line up being the mid and (Lennon) late Beatles time. Whatever, it's all great music! Thanks Michael and Jen.

Actually Paul was the first to get a Casino. John and George approved and got their own!

Awesome set Michael! I’m drooling! Next guitar is either a ES 330 or a Casino! Like Norman was saying, very handy guitar! Great picking technique! Awesome video Jen! You really do these guitars well deserved justice! Thank you!

Nicely done Lemmo 😊

I have one of the Lennon 65 casinos - identical to this one. If I had to choose only one guitar out of the 30 I have, it would be the Lennon 65.

I kept thinking the long slow burn on bridge pickup tune was going to explode into the chorus of a Beatles song, but Lemmo just let it simmer instead 😅

Fantastic instrument and playing!!! Thanks Michael

Any footage of your shows, michael?

Michael knows all the guitar mojo.Excellent job.

What is the first song you're playing? It sounds so beautiful!

it's obly associated to john because of the rooftop, but Paul used it more

Good Job Lemmo, in certain moments you look just like John back in the early Beatle days......❤

Can I walk into Guitar Center and buy one of these right now? Common not that I would but just curious

I like this color better simple n not too much

The Beatles rooftop concert. After John stripped the finish from his. Check it out.

What’s the difference between the epiphone es230 td an epiphone usa casino?

What’s the difference between an epiphone 330 and this epiphone 230?

The people I've met are the same way, they prefer early Beatles....come to think of it I've never heard a single person prefer the LSD ones.... My Grandmother got to see them on their first US tour, I found the ticket stub in the garage once 😅
