The Epiphone Sheraton-II Pro Electric Guitar Vintage Sunburst is a 6-string electric guitar, featuring a hollowbody design, a maple body, a maple/walnut neck, a rosewood fretboard, and a vintage sunburst finish. The Epiphone Sheraton-II Pro honours Epiphone's most influential "thin-line" semi-hollowbody electric archtop, now offered in a beautiful vintage sunburst finish plus critically acclaimed ProBucker pickups with coil-splitting and a Graphtech NuBone XL nut.
The Sheraton has been renowned for decades for its combination of superior tone and beautiful pearloid and abalone inlays. Originally released in 1959, the inspiration for the "thin-line" or ES series has its roots in Les Paul's first solidbody guitar, "The Log," that Les built in Epiphone’s factory in Manhattan in 1940. "The Log" was made from Epiphone parts with a 4" x 4" piece of Pinewood down the middle.
The ES-series is also semi-hollow with a solid center, which makes it more resistant to feedback than a typical archtop guitar. The Epiphone Sheraton-II PRO is backed by Epiphone’s Lifetime Limited Warranty that guarantees every Epiphone against defects in materials or workmanship, plus Gibson’s 24/7/365 Customer Service.
The main features of the Epiphone Sheraton-II Pro Electric Guitar Wine Red include:
Service was excellent. Guitar arrived at the exact time on email.
Great guitar for the money.
Only complaint is that I think the guitar could have been packed better to protect it more. Small knock/rub mark on front of the guitar when it arrived. Before I opened the box I could feel the guitar had space to move about so that was disappointing.
The guitar looks and sounds superb everything I expected. I had ordered this guitar in October from another company who kept delaying the order to then inform me in February they were no longer able to supply it. I then ordered it with DV247 where I ordered it and had it delivered from Germany in just over-a week and cannot fault their service so wish I had found them in the first place.
I was a little surprised by the high quality of this fine piece of instrument. I see it as a Gibson 335 copy and it made me change opinion of the Epiphone guitars totally. I usually don't buy cheaper guitars as I feel they lack of ability to meet my demands. This is my new and very last love. I simply don't need another. :)
