Product Review I've been a alvin lee fan for a long time and I've never been able to afford a gibson 335 ever and can you blame me... My buddy had this epiphone sheraton ii pro and I fell in love with it...the body work the art on the guitar and most of all how it played ...with the "pull single coil" style I could get the alvin solo style I wanted ...and I even had a issue with my order and ams fixed it all! With no issues no problems and I am glad I found then to this day...if you want a great 335 style guitar and great sound for the price I would not hesitate to get this guitar

Product Review I've wanted a Sheraton for years but for some reason never got one. 55 years of playing Gibsons, Fenders, and other Epiphone guitars, but somehow, never got the Sheraton. Love it!! Tone is incredible. Balances nicely, plays like butter. Looks classy. Needed a set up, and a fret dressing, but other than that, ( and a change of strings to my preferred brand) there's nothing else that was needed. Liked it so much I bought a second one. Plays every bit as good as my $4000 guitars. In fact, the sound and feel is so good, I'm using only my 2 new Sheratons at my gigs this week. Very VERY happy with these.

Unplayable out of the box

Product Review Came very poorly set up, but worse, with a bunch of high frets. No matter the setup effort, fret buzz would not go away. Would've required taking to a luthier to do fretwork on it, which I wasn't willing to do on a brand new guitar, so I returned it. The guitar is also surprisingly heavy - much heavier than any 335 I've played. Gave it 3 stars because the sound was good and I could sense that with a little work and investment it could've been an excellent guitar

Product Review I own more than my share of guitars from Gibson to Squier and I have to say the sound out of this one through a Marshall tube amp is incredible. I haven’t touched the Les Paul Standard since I got this one. Play one and you will definitely hear a quality sound from a great quality Guitar.

Product Review The guitar plays and sounds pretty good. However it looked like I received a previous return or a B Stock guitar. The headstock had very significant fogging on the finish. Was very bad. There must have been zero quality control checks from Epiphone or AMS before it shipped. Not sure I can ever buy from AMS again. They did offer me a 70$ credit for the defect.

Product Review The Epiphone Sheraton has been one of those guitars that I’ve always overlooked for being a Tele player. I played one at a local music store and was blown away by the tones both clean and overdriven. Does everything you ask of it and more! I play alternative rock and country most of the time and it can do both just fine, and so many compliments on the sounds for Sunday worship service. I’m pointing all my students and friends to the Sheraton for the quality and affordability and to AmericanMusical thank you for offering affordable no credit check payment plans! Guitar arrived in excellent condition and ready to play!

Product Review The resonance that comes through both acoustically and through the ProBucker Pickups is awesome. I’ve run the pickups through both REVV G2 and G3 peddles. The pickups handle both overdriven sound and full metal distortion equally well. It is a well made guitar, and looks incredible with the gold hardware. I recommend this guitar, sound your best…

Product Review I played this guitar last summer, and immediately fell in love with it. And until I found it on AMS, I wondered if I'd ever find one! It plays great. My hands aren't the largest, and the neck is perfect for me! It has coil splits, and with these pickups, you get all kinds of great tone. I could see this guitar working well in any genre of music. Did I mention is a beauty? And for all the above, it's very affordable! It inspires me to play, and isn't that why we look for a magical guitar? I found mine!

Product Review I really did not want to like this guitar. It is made in China, and that in and of itself, was preparing me for some cheap piece of wood with strings attached. But.......I was pleasantly surprised. The workmanship on this axe is awesome! Right out of the box it sounded great, and it is beautiful, I got the brown burst color and the gold hardware really makes it shine. I went over it with a fine toothed comb and could find no visible imperfections. After a set up and new strings it really competes with guitars costing twice as much. Thanks Epiphone for putting out a quality product and thanks to AMS for the customer service and the shipping. Don't let the made in China stop you from buying this!

Product Review Have been wanting one of these for sometime now. When it arrived in only two days I was very pleased. It’s a beautiful guitar has great tone and the workmanship was impeccable. I would highly recommend it. The buying experience from ams was great as usual. I talked with three different customer service reps on three different occasions they were knowledgeable friendly and answered all my questions. It was nice to talk to someone who was truly interested in helping can’t thank them enough. Excellent guitar and excellent people what more could one ask

Beautiful and Extremely Well Built

Product Review I have been playing Epiphone Guitars for a long time. I have had Sheratons in the past, including a Made in Japan model back in the 80s. This guitar is very well built. I love the Gold Hardware on it. Features that stand out. Tone and Playability. This has a very sweet spot in the tone department. Using in the humbucker setting (not coil splitting) backing off of the tone just a tad, really warms it up in any pickup setting. Playability is perfect right out of the box. Everything was setup perfectly. The E and A strings needed intonation set, as they were off just a bit. But that I would expect after being shipped from overseas. I have owned it a little over a month. Meet my Expectations? Absolutely! I always expect high quality from Epiphone and it never fails me!

Product Review There is a good reason why I hunted down my Sheraton, and I couldn't be happier to finally have her... Being a solid chunk-wood rhythm guitar guy for so many years, I've really been missing out on the air... that a good semi-hollow brings to the table. This was the guitar I was always looking for.

Product Review I purchased this Epiphone Sheraton II Pro Semi-Hollow Body in Vintage Sunburst about 2 months ago and I can say today this is one of the most beautiful looking well made superbly sounding instruments I own. I am partial to Epiphone and have many but this beauty is one of my favorites next to the Les Paul I bought from AMS last year. I love this guitar. The sound is so resonate. The body extenuates the sustain and the depth of voice like many way more expensive semi hollow body guitars out there and I believe that this guitar will make any musician feel better about themselves when in hand. I would recommend this guitar for most players except the least experienced or beginners due to the size of the body it is a bit more bulky to handle than many other electrics on the market today available to someone who is just a beginner or in the early stages of learning but for the intermediate player or someone who wants a wonderfully versatile guitar to gig with then this is a great choice. The way AMS makes the ease of buying experience available to all then one can't go wrong purchasing this guitar from AMS.

Product Review This is a nice guitar and very nice looking in wine red and gold. The quality control is obsolete and mine was not new out of the box but was supposed to be, someone else had already used it. The neck has about 6 frets that are high and will need leveling which is probably why it was sent back, the guitar is really not worth it in my opinion when you can spend a little more and buy American! The service was good and fast which is about the highlight of the purchase.

Product Review I was entirely more pleased with this guitar than I originally imagined I would be. The coil splitting is an amazing addition to an already incredible sounding guitar. The range of music you can play is wide. Not to mention the overall look of this guitar. The fretboard is beautifully designed and the gold accents are to die for. I am absolutely in love with this guitar for every reason.

Product Review Just received my Sheraton in wine red about 4 hours ago. What a guitar! Setup right out of the box was excellent and the thing plays itself. Very comfortable neck. Tones for days. I lowered the bridge a tiny bit but that’s only from personal preference. Get one! You will not be disappointed.

Product Review Tried to purchase at several stores and on-line. All on back order except for AMS and free delivery in 3-4 days. The guitar is an ebony beauty. Easy to play with great tone. Really great sound and sustain. The lower fret wire height, compared to my Les Paul allows rapid changes and bends that are solid. Being used to fret markers up to the 22nd fret and this Epi stopping at 15 is the reason for a 4/5 review. Otherwise, this guitar is perfect and right out of the box.

Epiphone Is A Great Value

Product Review This is my first Epi and I’m not at all disappointed. I also own a Gretsch 5422TG hollow-body, and the Sheraton is much heavier, and the tone options are greater. The guitar is well appointed with very nice inlays on the headstock and the vintage burst looks great over the maple. I prefer this look to a totally painted guitar. The playing feel from the extra weight gives you the impression of a Les Paul with a semi fat neck. Lovin it so far, and I didn’t pay too much for it either. AMS did a great job of fulfilling my order. Matching up the additional gear was easy too.

Product Review What can I say, it's an absolutely beautiful guitar. Especially in Midnight sapphire. The wood grain subtlety shines through that deep beautiful blue finish. The pictures do not do these guitars any justice. I can not see how Epihpone can get away with the price for this high of a quality of product. Replace the OEM strings(everyone should do this with all guitars they buy) and she'll sing like you thought it was a Gibson.

Product Review Out of the box the setup was a tad high for my liking, however the tone hits the nail on the head. Inspecting the neck, perfect relief, lowered the action to just above normal spec and this guitar came to life. Sharp fret ends...NO! Not as finely filed as a higher price instrument but spot on at this price point. Playing the guitar will fix most issues however I did take 0000 steel wool to the fretboard, polished the frets and finally a bit of oil to the wood. Nobody ever used to complained about sharp fret ends until all these YouTube videos about the issue now everybody is a guitar tech sending guitars back if there's the slightest sign. 25 years ago we played the hell or of our guitars and that's why they play so nice. So watching YouTube and play your instrument. Snobs.

Product Review A great guitar for the price. This guitar is at least 3/4 as good as my Gibson 335 at a 1/4 of the price. Fit and finish are great. The electronics are great at this price point; no complaints. The only durability issue I’ve had after 3 yrs is that the gold finish on the hardware wears off quickly; within a year on points of contact.

Product Review This stunner played great right out of the box. Punchy pickups in both single and full on humbucker. Fast & smooth neck with action that is just right (for me anyway). Build quality and finish that would give much higher-priced guitars a run for their money. I would heartily recommend this semi-hollow body beauty; and would definitely buy again. Bottom line is: Check this guitar out before dropping several thousand on its overpriced cousin.

Product Review Lester. I was very skeptical of buying a Chinese made Guitar.I like Made in USA. But if you didn't tell someone that it was made in China I don't believe no one could tell. No it is not a Gibson but for the price the looks and the playability.I took it out of the box tuned it and that's all.If you can afford a USA guitar I congratulate you. But if you are on a fixed income like me it is a great alternative.

Sheraton II PRO Sensational

Product Review Well, I have been an AMS fan for years because it continues to deliver the best product at reasonable prices. I have looked to buy the Sheraton II PRO for awhile and once I was able to buy it, and try it, it blows me away. First, the tone is fabulous - all three settings (Treble, Treble-Rhythm and Rhythm) are outstanding. No matter what your flavor of music that you favor, the Sheraton II will take you there. Second, the product was delivered to me on a SUNDAY by Fed Ex guys who care about the customer. Third, the frets and fingerboard are fantastic, enabling me to reach everything more easily. The frets, themselves, are smooth, which makes it easier to play the Sheraton II with confidence. (I bought a guitar with frets that, in my opinion, were not quite finished, which makes me less likely to play that guitar in comparison to the Sheraton II.) The Sheraton II looks good, sounds good and feels good. It's an awesome investment :)

Product Review After learning drums & bass, guitar is my next project. I got this good looking piece with the idea of playing it clean at times and a bit dirty. Although I’m new to the guitar, I have an idea of the tone that I want and this baby clearly produces it. Mine needed some setup adjusting as the strings were pretty high as well as the pickups, but that was easy for me to do as I already set up my basses.

Product Review I bought an Epi L.P custom pro in black and the guitar far exceeded my expectation's, but I am really into playing the blues and I wanted a moe blues style guitar and I had heard good thing's about the Sheraton 2 pro, so I bought one and I have to say that I can't put the darn thing down, I dream about playing it at night, lol. This guitar is equal to the Gibson 335 or dare I say even better (I own both). If you want an awesome sounding and looking guitar look no further and the price compared to the gibson is less than half. Can't beat that with a stick. Super happy and AMS was awesome in every way with the buying experience.

Product Review Flawless guitar - well built, feels good, plays great, and sounds perfect. The Pro-buckers really make this thing sing. Played it's first gig the other night and the soundman couldn't get over the tone. Just sings.I play hard rock and some old school metal, and was afraid with the marshall stack I would have a problem with feedback - nope. As for setup - yep, I did have to set it up a bit better with a quick fret-level and a twist or two of the truss rod, but I do that with all my guitars, no matter what... it's just how I am. Pay no attention to epiphone-nay-sayers - I've got gibsons, fenders, epiphones, etc., and to be perfectly honest, this beats the higher-priced guitars out. Maybe not hands-down, but legitimately this is a great guitar, and then if you consider the price, it's a really great guitar. I couldn't see spending 3500 on a gibson 335 when this was 700, and looks much better... and actually, feels and sounds just as good. Go epiphone! Winner here.

Product Review Just want to know if (the buzz was corrected on the Bridge) and workmenship also been inspected carefully, this I've read from a review back 12/26/2016 cause I'm planing to get one. AMS Responds: Thanks for the question. The item would come from the factory setup. Sometimes you may need to get a setup to get it playing the way you like but most often it comes very playable.

Product Review I am stunned at how beautifully made this guitar is and how they can sell it at such a low price! Fit and finish are second to none and it sounds and plays wonderful! My only tiny complaint is the bridge has the "buzz" from the stupid retaining wire on the adjustment screws, why they continue to use this style bridge is beyond me but,it is a fairly inexpensive part to replace. I highly recommend this guitar! Thanks AMS and Epiphone for high Quality at a working man's price .

Product Review Bought this guitar and case from american music supply .beautiful guitar and workmanship flawless. Could not find any defects whatsoever and I'm very particular. I lowered the string height a bit and it plays perfect. I play the chet atkins thumbstyle as a hobby and this guitar is great for it.

Product Review The binding on one of the f-holes was "not finished" as in there was some excess material that was not cut completely, it was inside the body cavity . I was a bit surprised this got past QC HOWEVER The guitar was shipped as if it was going to a music store and rather than ship it in the case it was shipped as two separate units. Mine arrived in excellent condition. It was almost in tune when I pulled it out. I do all my own setups but this was very well setup and gave me the ability to just start playing. Pups-I am an Alnico II guy anyways and I really liked the pups str8 into my Marshall it sounded rich and full. I was able to coax out many tones easily. The coil split I am on the fence about... It def gives some options but I have a few other "F" style guitars with single coils and these didn't compare. HOWEVER if I was a gigging musician I think its very convincing and interesting combo are avail (think more P90 than Strat) I am replacing an older Sheraton II from 2000 VERY HAPPY

Product Review Absolutely incredible value and craftsmanship for the money. I have owned a Gibson 335 and a heritage 535 and this new Sheraton ii Pro is top-of-the-line the build quality is equal to Gibson and heritage! And for those of you worried about the pickups and electronics.... Don't be! These new pro buckets are awesome. I can't believe this guitar is only $700 I'll never spend the $ 2500 - $3500 on a Gibson again. Not when great guitars like this are available. Don't be fooled.... This is a serious pro level, working musicians guitar!

Product Review Play profesional. Approx. 200 gigs a year. I own several guitars. Gibson,Strats,Martins. etc. All amercican Made. I had seen this guitar used on TV by a few muscians and other venues. I checked out the Gibson China factory video and did alot of research before I ordered it. I couldn't beleive it. This is a $700.00 guitar that plays and sounds like a $4,000+ Gibson. Not the other way around. Craftmanship is awesome. Neck is perfect and like lighting. It sounds really great. Mellow or crunchy. Just right. Get it. You won't be disappointed. Least mine is awesome!!!!

Product Review Sounds great, craftsmanship is beyond the cost of the guitar. The finish is incomparable to other brands. I like it better than a comparable Gibson. Epiphone out did themselves on this one.

Product Review This beauty is already my new fave. The Sheraton II accurately delivers a retro tone that is very tasty. The ply ability is over the top! This instrument is a total pleasure to play. Between the tone/timbre and excellent playability I find it difficult to put it down and pick up any of my other guitars.
