I got a new guitar

In the vein of talking more about guitars, I thought I would post this here.

I haven't purchased a new guitar in quite some time as many of us know, we don't need new guitars but want them. After playing a friends Sheraton, I simply fell in love with the way it felt and sounded. It bounced around in my head for a couple of weeks and then I decided I wanted one. I took a Epi Wilshire and a Agile Harm to the GC here in West Palm and the manager and I hammered out a deal on a natural Sheraton. Gold hardware is not my thing, but the feel and tone were enough for me to overcome that. I have been on a honeymoon with this guitar for a couple of weeks so far and still can't put it down.

Ooooo! Very nice!


But personally, I'd never trade my Harm for anything

hey, you gotta go with feels best, and that is a gorgeous machine too!

For some reason my cheap little Harm plays better than any of my other guitars except maybe the 64 SG Jr, which is tonally limited with the one bridge P90. I did have the harm professionally set up, so that's a lot of it, I guess.

Re: I got a new guitar

I always liked the Sheratons...elegant headstock, and everything an ES would offer, at a fraction of the price. congrats...but trading in a Wilshire? For shame! ***unless it was one of the RI models***

Of course it was a RI. I would never, ever trade a vintage anything.

Re: I got a new guitar

There are some similarities with Lennon's guitar, but his was a Casino which has P90's.
