PP_CS336 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 JGLongBeach, Nice mods on the Sheraton II NA. The only thing I modded on my Sheraton II NA were the knobs. I went with the gold with white numbers as the gold went with the gold hardware better (to each his own). I would definately get some dial markers to place under the knobs so you know where the heck you're dialed into without guessing. Especially when your playing out in the clubs. I'm 55 years old and my eyesight's not so great anymore (can see far away, but can't see close up worth a $#!+ without my glasses).:) The markers aren't only an aid though, they definitely add class to the guitar's appearance. The come stock on most of the Casinos I've seen. On my Les Paul Standard, I took off the crappy gold on gold knobs that come stock and replaced them with the black knobs like you put on your Sheraton II. My Les Paul is VS, so those black knobs and the pointers really add a lot of class to it. Best of luck with your Sheraton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
