I really like my Casino Coupe, the whole feel, comfort and weight. I like playing it better more my Gibson ES-339 (fat neck). I noticed there is a similar Gibson version to the Coupe with mini-humbuckers besides the P90s, the ES390.
I was thinking as a project, next year - I've already spent my project money for this year - to buy a used Epiphone Casino Coupe and replace the pickups them with the humbucker under p90 pickups, essentially giving me an Epiphone version of the Gibson ES390 with mini-hums at a more affordable price. The Gibson is way of my reach price-wise, and I don't want to sell the ES339 which I got at a really low price used.
My only concern is will the bumbucker-under--p90-dog-ear be to high for guitars like the casino/wildcat. This concern was noted on another site where another builder makes a similar pickup. If so what modification have to be made to the guitar. Thanks.
