AdamH Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 It's had a good run but it's not the guitar for me: Epiphone Sheraton II http://www.epiphone.com/default.asp?ProductID=8&CollectionID=1 It's the blond version, here's a photo for colour reference although mine is the 2004 model. PM me if you or anyone you know is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 how much? also...didn't you just buy that thing within the last year or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 I did, and its a great guitar but it just doesn't suit me. For one it's a heavy thing and probably better suited to someone beefier than me. Secondly it's got a fat neck and although I'm no shredder I'm looking for a telecaster or stratocaster-sized neck in terms of playability.I paid $625 from Lauzon, yes, less than a year ago. I'll consider any reasonable offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomFoolery Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Hey 'roo,If you haven't sold by September, let me know. I kinda liked the tone you get outta that thing and wouldn't mind having an electric again. Just a bit broke right now...TF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 The circle thingy is not on mine so no idea.Tom September may be better than now, just had an impulse to get rid of it and buy a sweet used telecaster....or a pedal steel.Actually I will trade this electric straight up for a pedal steel...no idea how much those cost but I'm dying for one.

TomFoolery Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 I gots the feeling you may be disappointed in how much pedal steel you can get for yer git. I suspect they're pretty hard to come by for cheap. Just my hunch.In the mean time, I'll ask the old man if he knows of any kicking around in the valley - bluegrass used to be pretty huge out there...I used to play a strat - you'll love a Fender!

Weirdness Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 FYI you have a great guitar there with shit pickups. I have the exact same one, colour and all and everything I read said that if you either put some true Gibson or Seymour Duncan pickups in it it's the bomb. I've never been happy with mine either, and haven't gotten around to modding it up, but if someone were to score a good deal on this used and throw a few extra bones into the upgrade, I'm sure you'd be loving this guitar.

bradm Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Actually I will trade this electric straight up for a pedal steel...no idea how much those cost but I'm dying for one.Songbird in Ottawa has a Fender pedal steel for $900.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomFoolery Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 That's surprisingly cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted July 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Hmm Pete..I wonder if you're on to something. I'm far from an expert (and my experience is tainted by being in an apartment and NOT turning it up to 11) but I just haven't been able to find a good sound out of this here guitar. I know nothing about changing pickups though..level of difficulty?More practically the weight of it is a bit distracting although that's an easy fix with a better strap than what I currently have.What 2 dew, what 2 dew.

AdamH Posted July 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 That thing is fucking beautiful. I'll see what they offer for a trade-in but I doubt it'll be much.The real solution would be to discover $899 under my mattress and not sell my guitar.

Hux Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 I bet you they will offer you around $250 for your Eppy...just a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
