Best customer service I've ever encountered. My guitar arrived ahead of the date it was supposed to, in flawless condition. Played well right out of the box. I will be buying all of my gear from you, from here on out. You made me feel like I was ordering a custom guitar, just for me. I was treated like a valuable customer.

I was over whelmed when I received my Guitar.. Sweetwater allows you to compare all the ones they have in stock.. after going through each of them I picked the one I wanted and 5 days later it arrived... read more [+].. ALMOST PERFECT setup out of the box.. TYLER Moore my sales rep helped me a great deal.. THE guitar arrived in excellent condition and was even prettier then the pictures the action & neck was exactly what I was looking for.. I would recommend SWEETWATER to anyone looking to purchase on line.. SO FAR I am thoroughly impressed with my purchase
MY wife liked the candy that came with the guitar.. I had thoughts of swapping out the Pickups but for now they deliver the sound and the guitar has no flaws for the price it is a great buy and as well made as the GIBSON 335's for a third or more less then the cost THANKS FOR THE GREAT PURCHASE close [-]

Decide for yourself!!

You can read all the reviews, but you'd be a fool to buy anything you have not had in YOUR hands.

I'm going to sing the praises if this guitar too.

I have two Gibson 335'... read more [+]s and While the pots seem to be better in the Gibson's, I can't justify the costs over the Sheraton.

Get to a store and play both. Play several of both and decide for yourself.

I'm currently looking for a Sheraton II in triburst. I may have to settle for vintage burst, but I can't justify the price of a Gibson

New pots are cheap and I've had some bad pots on a Les Paul studio I had to replace. close [-]

This Axe Sings the Blues!

by Richard from Las Vegas, NV

I was hunting for a guitar semi-hollowbody to add to my collection, and really needed a guitar that could produce the blues, among other genres. Once I pulled this out of the box, I was very impressed... read more [+] with the quality and natural finish of the guitar. I plugged it in and found that blues tone I was searching for, but to my VERY pleasant surprise, this axe can rip hard rock just as well as the blues, and the clean tones through the neck and bridge are fantastic! With the selector set to the middle, I found a very creamy, acoustic-like tone for rhythms and melodies alike. The set up out of the box was spot on, and I needed to just tweak the pickup height a bit, but Sweetwater didn't miss a beat! Some folks might complain about the feedback of the body when high gain is applied or in a noisy live situation, but for me the level of feedback in those situations is perfect for my artistic application and certainly not in the way when I don't want it, even in a cramped room or live stage with drums and other amps blaring! Bottom line, a fantastic bargain for the quality of instrument that fits many genres with ease and simply looks amazing in its natural finish. Thanks to Don B. and the entire Sweetwater crew, they beat everyone out there! close [-]

this instrument really plays

by Blue Stu Herman from Seattle, WA, USA

Music Background: I play the blues, for the last 50 years
well, replacing the pickups, which had the definite sound of Ducks, quacking, and the Machines, which were Grovers, sort of, and all the pots and switches, which were also not good -after that, have ... read more [+]a FANCY ES-series instrument for about $1200. I used Seymour Duncan pickups, Schaller gold locking Machines, and Swirchcraft switch and pots, and it definitely needs a Graphite Nut - but, seeing as a A gibson comparable model is 3 Gs, I love it. Just be ready to spend a little more, and put the stuff on it that it really needs - I play for a living, and I use this as well as my Strat. Good choice, the Sheraton close [-]
