Hello!

I know that there are a few fans of the strokes here, and I wanted to show off my new/old Sheraton II natural so I uploaded a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWrSYXhgpQs I hope no one takes this as shameless self promoting. This guitar really makes me feel like a pro everytime I play it. Hooked up to some old Frontman, which has the only good drive I've ever heard built into an amp. Any more questions just ask.

 

Hey!

 

P.S. I am aaware that my picking style completely sucks, but you must understand that I am really a mutant.

which "old" Frontman are you using?

I have a fried 60B series here ('02 Malaysia) that had a really crunchy

natural drive to it.

Sadly, it burned a circuitboard after about 4 months (bought it used)

and I can't find anybody locally to repair it. :^o

It makes a dandy footprop, but its otherwise useless.

I believe it is a 2001 model with the M01 designation. Yes, best overdrive I've heard. Ironically, I got it as a replacement for one of the new frontman amps, but just decided it was worth keeping. The one thing that really gets to me is fuzz, not som much when it is intentional, I can't stand it when it is used to mask mistakes. Really, I want to get an overdrive pedal, but I've never really gotten around to getting any pedals. The guitar is from 07, MIK, and serves as my main guitars, with my Highway 1 as a "backup". Honestly, now that I play it a lot, I think it is way easier to play than my strat. Took off the pickguard, something about it made the guitar seem more natural etc. Also, I REALLY like natural guitars, so much so that if it doesn't have some wood showing, I don't consider it.

 

Here is exactly what the amp looks like (except a wee bit bigger):

Bender...Have you tried a "Fender" service center or authorized repair

service. They're all over the US...in most major cities. Sounds

like a quick repair job, if it's just the circuit board? Not under warrenty,

obviously, but shouldn't be all that expensive...
