The Epiphone range of the 1960s closely followed the Gibson guitars of the same time; they were both made in the same fatory in Kalamazoo. The Casino corresponds to the Gibson ES330 having the same dimensions and construction, but with different headstock shape and tailpiece.

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. Several variants are offered, each with different suffixes, describing them. T = Thinline, V = Vibrato, D = Dual pickup.

Likewise, the Sorrento had had some upgrades since it's appearance in the 1961 catalog. It is shown here with inlaid Epiphone headstock logo (instead of the metal V-shaped logo), oval pearl neck position markers, and the white (rather than black) scratchplate; three features that would continue throughout the decade.
