No Talking...Just Tones | Epiphone Sheraton II Pro Ebony

[@guitarswhiskeyandgolf]

I have a 95 Sheraton I recently upgraded the tuners and put in a new nut to improve tuning stability. I have been toying with idea of a pickup upgrade after all these years but amazing guitar really. 27 years and it's never needed a single repair other than occasional set ups etc.

[@eamonmcdermott4032]

Bought this guitar last week. It's a beast! Absolutely lovely.

[@naurorasen8063]

how does it hold up?

[@tomkearney1829]

Great playing young man, you made it sound so like a Gibson with a masterful demo with great licks lovely bass lines and a bit of R&R--Jazz chords----and blues you sure know your way around the neck so Kudos to you..

1:44 awesome

[@Gman44044]

I'm not so much into black bodied guitars, but this one looks GORGEOUS!

[@handybunny]

Right? I thought the same thing.

[@holyssun]

The finger tone... so nice ! !

[@oldmate86]

I've got this guitar's wine-red version, and it's a beast. To make it a jack of trades I suggest these upgrades: Grover 502G Locking Tuners Roller Bridge Dussenberg Les Trem II String Butler V4 All these mods give it amazing tuning stability, and adding a trem in tandem with the push/pull pots makes for an extremely versatile guitar.

[@colinstanhouse6663]

I had one of these. Great guitar!

[@rick00770]

They are nice looking guitars, sounds great there on the blues. Great video. You guys are great.😊

To me, the Epiphone Sheraton is equivalent or (slightly) better than the Gibson ES-335.

[@josephlerz6889]

their the best budget 335's in my opinion, and superior to Gibson based on value

[@tenniswilliam]

I have two Sheratons and they are great and I have a Gibson 335. The Gibson is better sounding and better feel and better fit and finish. It is however 5 x the price.

[@Jamie-zi2nf]

Just bought one, USA made, doesn't an ebony fretboard but could always try to upgrade later or something 🤷‍♂️ Just couldn't NOT get it for $1100 lol

[@ilpilgrim]

Now the big question is this guitar or do I buy the epiphone es 335 pro over it.......

[@williamsimmons5163]

The answer is: no you do not! I have owned and played both. The Sheraton is much livelier and more inspiring. I really can’t explain the difference as I believe they have the same pickups. But the is a notable difference. I started off with the Sheraton and after a couple of trades got the 335. Recently got my hands on another Sheraton and couldn’t be happier! Plus it’s just a sexier looking guitar.

[@shaveman79]

Greetings! One question, since I mainly play with headphones at home, is the sound coming out of the speaker particularly loud? Thanks and congratulations for the videos!

[@thisistimwoods]

Lol of course it's loud man!

[@fuzzfrancis435]

That's my "Maxine" there!

[@joshualove6586]

Yessir! Made it sound like a million bucks!

[@kosmokritikos9299]

That there is a peachy guitar.

[@ottmarbassist]

Me encanta su video de demostración así sin hablar y tocando genial, casi siempre en este tipo de video se la pasan hablando y tocan bien feo

[@emilianogallegos9839]

Would you reccomend me to trade my mexican jazzmaster for the sheraton?

[@PeachGuitars]

I don't think we can really make an honest recommendation on this I'm afraid, Emiliano. They are both very different guitars and which is most suitable for you is a very personal question, the Sheraton II Pro is a fantastic guitar though and if you decide to get your hands on one you won't be disappointed!

[@Skate771parts]

have both

[@mr.astrophysics9115]

The Korean made Epiphones are not better than the Epiphones today not even close..the Qingdao Epiphone facility is State of the Art and is Run and supervised by American Master Builder Scott Lewis and American luthiers..the Asian luthiers there have no less than 10 years experience..the Qingdao facility only crafts Epiphone brands no outside brands are made in the Qingdao facility..Scott Lewis has been at the Qingdao Epiphone facility since 2002 and with Gibson 46 years..he's considered one of the best..

I have an Saein made 335 and a samick made epiphone sg both fantastic korean quality.

[@martenx1384]

People try to make extra money: Korean is better. The Samick factory used cheap Nato wood on the Lp line.

[@arturocastillo7760]

Hey that’s Tom Delonge guitar I love that that’s the same guitar 🎸 that Tom Delonge play music video blink-182 I miss you version

[@tomsnow2872]

Are any of these guitars made in Korea still or did they all move to China?

[@workaccount2415]

China I believe but I really don't think that myth of 15 year old korean guitars being better is true, just test it in the shop and if you like it buy it. One thing I don't like about new ones is the fretboard wood but that's an issue across the entire market

[@tomsnow2872]

@@workaccount2415 It wasnt 15 years ago that they were made but suit yourself.

[@workaccount2415]

@@tomsnow2872 Forum post from 2012 - "To muddy up the waters even more, Sheratons are currently still being made in Korea by Unsung, while past Korean versions have been made by Samick, Saein, and Unsung. Interestingly, it seemed like production had completely switched to China, but now within the past few months I've seen new Korean Unsungs in stock at both Sweetwater & MF, along with the Chinese version. "

[@mr.astrophysics9115]

They are made in the Qingdao Epiphone facility by American Master Builder Scott Lewis and American luthiers also at the facility..Scott Lewis has been at the Qingdao Epiphone facility for years and he has been with Gibson/Epiphone 46 years

[@keesketsers5866]

@@tomsnow2872 : I owned several korean epi's when they were new. The chinese ones are mostly the same, it's just that all the bad korean ones have been to a luthier once in their life to level frets etc or have been binned or are in storage somewhere not being played. They weren't all good, some were and some werent....just like today. But I agree on the fretboard wood (laurel), it looks hideous and feels terrible. But it is what it is.

[@scott83074]

They should make these with ebony board ,no white around the triangles in the inlay on the neck,colored triangles only and black blank truss rod cover and take the E off the puckguard..before they'd sell more
