Title: I got a new guitar!!!!
Post by: Bluesberry on February 14, 2009, 01:41:25 PM
I just came home with a new guitar, yah hoo.  I got an Epiphone Sheraton-II Natural finish like in the link below.  I cant wait to record something and post it to see how it sounds.  I am going to be playing this one all weekend now, the strat will have to stay in the case for a few days.  What a warm beautiful sound at the store.  Time to get playing.  Cheers.  Woo Hoo Woo Hoo.

I just came back from the website looking at your new guitar.
Ain't she a beaut!
If she sounds half as pretty as she looks, she is gonna sing sweetly for sure...
Congratulations.
I can't wait to hear your new posts with her.

Thanks for the comments.  The tone from this thing is exceeding my expectations for sure.  Stock everything and I am really loving it, what a great guitar, what great value (paid CAN$995).  Its the closest I'll ever come to a real Gibson 335 (for less than 1/3 the price), but for my ears it is close enough.  I am in guitar heaven with this thing.  So far I have recorded it in a post started by Wiley (see link below - half way down).  It records nicely, can't wait to try out some recorded blues with it (project for tonight).  New guitars are such a blast.  I see how these really rich guys end up with hundreds of guitars.  Each one gets its own personality and wants to be played a certain way.  I really like the neck, plays real easy and smooth.

LOVELY guitar!  :)

I've looked at Sheratons myself. The natural finish is very similar to the '65 Epiphone Casino that Lennon played, so it's a very desirable thing.

Thank you Greeny for reminding me of that picture.  Yea it looks just like that, now I have to grow out my sideburns, hair and get round glasses.  :D  I took the pick guard off, it looks better with it off.
