    Bought my Sheraton II about 10 months ago. I went looking for a new guitar, was definitely not interested in a hollow body. The salesman at my local Sam Ash music store steered me away from a more expensive model, and talked me into trying this. Sat and played it for awhile. It wasn’t what I was looking for, but it was what I realized I wanted. Finish is great, setup was great. Plays very smooth, although the strings were a little light gauge for my taste, even better play when I changed them. The best compliment that I can give this instrument is that if I had it to do all over again, I would buy it again. Highly recommended.

    I have had the Sheraton II for a couple of years. It was in need of some basic setup and “re-humidification” after it’s stay at Guitar Center. Sometimes your hear complaints about the pickups, but when they are correctly adjusted they are really quite good. The multipiece neck is quite stable and pleasantly chunky in size.

    Detail quality is excellent, which is why so many get this guitar when they are searching for a Gibson 335. Why spend the extra $2000? I could not find a 335 without blems and quality finish issues anyway.

    This guitar is not my primary guitar, but is the semi-hollow I have wanted. It is good. I have the natural finish, but the sunburst is very attractive.

    The tuning machines are adequate, not superb.

    Fretboard is excellent, inlays superb, wood is excellent.

    I rate this much higher than the Epi Dots I tested.
