I bought the Grovers from Sweetwater, and they get here Tuesday. This makes the Coupe around 85 of the size of the original Casino, whilst retaining all the classic features that has made the original a. I really don't think it's the nut or saddles, but again, it's possible.Īnd, I really didn't want to have to enlarge the holes.how hard is it to get the existing bushings out on average? Casino Coupe (Inverness Green) is a thinline hollow-body electric guitar which is inspired by the instantly recognisable 1961 Casino, but is presented in a smaller ES-339 sized frame. I wrap them pretty good but it's possible. I'm surprised by these tuners also, Steve. Barring slipping (or more correctly, unwrapping) at the ball end, or problems with the nut or saddles, when this process is followed, and there is STILL slipping, all doubt is removed and tuner replacement is now the obvious step. My remaining question, is it possible at all that string slippage is the culprit rather than tuners? I wrap and tie my strings so any possibility of slippage once residual stretching is complete, is eliminated.

The tuners don't appear to have hex-bushings on top so if you go with replacements you may have to enlarge the peg holes.įrankly I'm surprised that the Casino Coupe would be sold with tuners of less than proper functionality, Ryder. Then, the G string did it.Īh, I just checked the Epiphone specs on your Coupe and it appears that they've used some type of perhaps generic no-name 'deluxe' but vintage looking tuners.

I play at church on Sundays.one day, my low E string was almost an octave off. These stock tuners slip and don't keep the strings in tune. No name tuners, but they look like the Grovers and Gotoh vintage style.
