Paul's Epiphone Casino

[dudley07726]

Other than in pics from the early 70's and in Live 8 with U2, Saturday night in Philly is the first time I have ever seen Paul use his Casino in concert. He used it for Paperback Writer. He said he used that guitar to record that song.

Pauly was concentrating on the lyrics so much, he crashed his moped.This song apparently didn't bring Paul much luck... even the microphone was running away from the lyrics.

and just to be mean......

After watching those vids, I have almost come to the conclusion that Paperback Writer must be a difficult song to do well.

Love the Fender amp tremelo heard in the fade of the song.

By the way, Jim, this guy seemed to do Paperback Writer well, all by himself!:

[jimk]

Yeah, he certainly has. Very impressive.

The lead he played on PBW was on e of the highlights in SF.

WAIT?!?!! Paul didn't play bass on PBW live?!?!

[simer4001]

Not in SF. He played the Casino. It was pretty cool.

Same in Glasgow, it was very cool!

I like Paul's Casino a lot more than John's.

That's because Paul's is different and an interesting guitar. John's is pretty much what the Casino has based its classic design off of.
