aye im pretty sure that noel has used a dot before. now he certainly uses a cherry red es 335 but its gibson, rather than epiphones which he used almost religiously in the ninetees

I've been researching even more (most people would have made up their mind by now) and some guy on another forum said this... "I personally would get the Casino, specifically this one
www.guitarampkeyboard.com/en/epiphone-casino-case/3001
And if you could afford then possibly swap out one of the P90's for a humbucker just to add some more versatility
www.guitarampkeyboard.com/en/antiquity-humbucker-brid/67896
Just check that the pickup is compatible with the guitar and everything before you try and drop it in
Something like that would be perfect for a libertines/Oasis sound and would give you massive amounts of versatility on top."And i was trying to find out how to get a sound like The Libertines and found this: "Get a good Epiphone guitar with P-90 pickups, such as the Epiphone Casino (same specs as the 330) or the Les Paul Junior. The Les Paul Junior Double Cutaway would also be good. Basically, simple guitars with a strong trebly sound."How come everytime i makemy mind up on one of these guitars, i always find something to put me back into a dilemma  |

to be honest, both the guitars are great guitars, dot and casinos, but its up to you, the casino's give you a more trebly sound and the dots give a more fat sound, but thats due to the pickups mostly

They sound ace!
Im gonna buy a white truss rod aswell, like what liam has on his Casino.
I think it contrasts beautifully with the black

aye, another worthwhile investment for your dot would be a bigsby tremolo, im tempted to get one myself but they're quite costly
what colour you gunna get your dot in?

Arnt they like a whammy bar?
I think i might go for the vintage sunburst one, cherry too bland IMO
And the pics ive seen, it looks realy bright unless its just the camera flash
