Epiphone Sheraton II
Manufacturing Core
2 x Humbucker epiphone 57CH (G) BHK (trs of average quality)
Tune o matic tipe les paul (of good quality I have supper it is manufactured by the same Gotho)
slecteur 3 positions, 2 volume, 2 tonalitbr /> Channel 3 al spices in Saddle
Nut quality trs average has probably changed.
Mcaniques Grover, I do not like ...
Mine is beautiful Sunburst finish, only BMOL the pickguard color salami on the varnish yellow and black of the guitar is not beautiful, I will change to a black ...

UTILIZATION

I find the handle comfortable trs.
CHAC is very easy to acute (easier than my telecaster ...)
Ergonomics are good, the body is perfect, trs comfortable sitting and standing.
Easily obtained without a good sound problem ...
This is a guitar very easy to use with an incredible momentum and sustain dramatic.
She came out of the box trs trs RULES well, not even need to give the harmonics, the curvature of the neck perfectly silent, and the height of the strings in a good compromise.
BMOL only the quality of the original string ... a change IMMEDIATE ...

SOUNDS

While the sound ...
well I jou beginners guitar a few weeks with the original pickups which are really nothing special, they are imprcis and balance the serious with acute nasal ... is a one time but no joy, this guitar MRIT much better!
His violin is trs trs good, so I changed:
- The mcaniques for planet waves lock trim home of addario (see the notice 55euro 6)
- The humbucker for Gibson Classic 57 and Classic 57 more (respectively 85euro 95euro and available in stores on the net https://www.cittadellamusica.org )
APRS meticulous work of a few hours I finally Discoveries another guitar
she is amazing!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a few months.
I love this guitar! she is amazing with a few modifications and a little elbow grease it's become a guitar trs trs high quality.
Before trying it I tried:
- Hagstrom Viking and Viking deluxe, good finish but too CHRE microphones and quality similar to the Sheraton (the original ...) with a key in rsine trs bof (600euro) ...
- The Ibanez AS103 I think, but also trs bof good mics (very jazz)
- The gibson es 335 trs good! Unfortunately, trs CHRE also ... (Mahogany neck)
- The Sheraton II rplique the 335 but with handle Rabl (410euro on https://www.luckymusic.com/ ...)
Then a Sheraton II 410euro + mcaniques and a humbucker = 230euro 640euro a guitar that is incredible!
I do it again this choice a thousand times, but with the modification required! it is perfect for me is a quality guitar with good finishing trs potential standard ... I arrive with a classic 57 out crystal clear sound and extremely dark blues rtro (Sunshine of Your Love Cream of Clapton is on a 335 if you AIM sound is dark like a guitar for you!)
