ONLY £SOLD WITH FREE P&P WHEN BOUGHT THROUGH OUR WEBSITE* Epiphone Sheraton Electric Guitar 1996 Korean + Hardcase
Epiphone Sheraton
Semi Acoustic Guitar
Circa - 1996 - With Freestyle Hardcase This
is the real deal when it comes to guitars, an Epiphone Sheraton, aged and
played in . . .
Built in 1996, serial number S6124359, Samick Plant, Korea.
Guitars from this time and factory are well known for their high quality and
finish.
Please do not mistake this for the new lesser quality Chinese models.
Built in 1996, this guitar's wood has 18 years of ageing and now has a sound
that literally cannot be replicated.
...thin line hollow maple body with a gorgeous natural finish, that looks
absolutely stunning against the gold hardware that has worn in all the right
places and has given it that lovely naturally aged patina, including gotoh style
machine heads and a body binding that's taken on a lovely creamy colour with
age...
This is a gorgeous guitar!
The solid maple block in the centre of the body minimizes feedback, while the
hollow body wings gives sustain, tone and weight. Two Epiphone alnico classic
humbuckers for authentic vintage tone, combined with the aged wood the guitar
sounds really, really beautiful.
The neck is a very comfortable 5 piece walnut and maple neck, it is a dream to
play!
In preparation for sale the guitar has
received the following:-
- Frets polished
- Fretboard cleaned, lemon oiled and conditioned
- Restrung on 14/01/2014 with 10 gauge strings
- String height set at 2.4mm at 17th fret, Bass side

- Correct saddle height adjustment
- Correct neck relief adjustment
- all electrics checked
- all hardware including screws have been removed, cleaned, lightly oiled and

Overall condition is well above what you would expect for a 18 year old used
guitar. It would stand up extremely well against any other guitar of this age. Very rarely do I ever see Epiphone Sheraton's in this condition, and I mean
very rarely. General playing wear to be expected but nothing that detracts from
the overall appearance and sound of the guitar. I must say, this guitar is a
credit to it's one previous owner and whoever buys the guitar, will definitely
not be disappointed in any way.
The Freestyle hardcase is included with the guitar with all latches working and
normal signs of use.
If there is anything I have missed picture wise, please let me know and I will
do my best to add it to the listing.
You will not be
disappointed with this guitar !!
