    Show your Epiphones

    Been hankering after an Epiphone Dove Pro for ages. A local shop had one, still boxed, straight from the factory. It's pretty much spot on straight out of the box, well impressed !! Action is shade over 4/64 on the low E and a shade under on the high e. It plays and looks terrific. One...

    Frets lifting

    Hi, only just seen these replies - thanks folks. Anyway - I took it back to the shop I bought it from and they had it for a week or so. It came back all good, frets reset. They were sticking up from the fretboard and not out past the edge. I've had it back a while now and it seems fine...

    Visit to New York

    Hi all, Me, the wife and daughter are visiting New York for a few days later this month. Whilst there I would like to have a look round a few guitar shops while they're doing their 'girly shopping'. Can any New York locals on here recommend good ones. We are staying near Times Square. Thanks...

    Frets lifting

    Yeah, gonna take it back to the shop I bought it from. Can't really see them sending to a luthier though as it only cost £150 new. Surely the cost of sorting it out would cost more than its worth ?? Will find out on Monday

    Frets lifting

    Hi all, I purchased a new Epiphone EJ200 Artist in May of this year, so now about 7 months old. Up until now I have been very happy with it. The sound and workmanship / finish is far better than the £150 (UK) price would suggest. Anyway, over the last couple of weeks I've noticed that the...

    What's The Last Concert You Went To?

    The Bootleg Beatles at The Silverstone Classic in UK. Funny enough I saw them 20 years ago and every member now is different...so, should they now be The Bootleg Bootleg Beatles :naughty:

    Anyone compare the Sheraton II with the Sheraton II PRO?

    I have just bought a Sheraton ii Pro - today actually. I can't comment on the previous model but so far I am very pleased with it. It looks very well made and sounds very nice, to my ears, as I am in no way a pro player. Just enjoy playing for my own amusement. I can't see any flaws in the...

    Got one at last

    Well, at last I'm the owner of a new Sheraton ii pro in Vintage Sunburst. It's been a bit of a mission as I bought a 2nd hand Sheraton (the Union Jack version) 2 weeks ago, only to discover the neck was warped. After getting a refund I bought a new Sunburst Sheraton mail order (never again)...

    What's The Last Concert You Went To?

    Shoasis - an Oasis tribute band (couldn't really be anything else with that name :naughty:) Great gig, small pub, only about 60 - 80 people, really loud, very sweaty. Just how it should be :D

    Hi from Essex, UK

    Hi all, just joined the forum. I bought a 2nd hand 'British Invasion' Sheraton, the one with the Union Jack front last week. Unfortunately I had to return it as I discovered the neck was warped up near the headstock. It was warped up to about the 7th fret and then dead straight right up to the...
