boren Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I finally took some decent shots of my (new) 1989 Sheraton. The previous owner upgraded to Grover tuners and Gibson Class 57 pickups; I cleaned her up a bit and switched out the gold control knobs. Hope you all enjoy the pictures.

Bender 4 Life Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Thats a FINE Sherri you have there...........what amp do you play it through & how does it sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwillow777 Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Very nice. I haven't seen a red Sherry before. It looks great. I have the same knobs on my Dot and the chrome hardware looks nice on it instead of the gold. That's a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkuss Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Red Sherry are lovely. There was an unbelievable Wine Red/Gold Sherry a few months ago. Best Sheraton I've ever seen in my whole entire life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boren Posted October 28, 2009 Author Share Posted October 28, 2009 I have a black Crate VC30. The stock speaker was changed to an 8 ohm Celestion V12-60 before I purchased it. I'm pretty new to this, but I personally think it sounds great. It sounds nice with the gain turned down real low but I also have a lot of fun getting some nice, fuzzy distortion too. It can get surpising loud and still sounds great; which is nice for it being relatively small. I can always upgrade later on but, being my first set up, I like what I have. I totally agree, jcwillow777; chrome looks a lot nicer with the red and black in my opinion. Thank you all for your compliments so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricochet Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Looks amazing... but anyone else think the headstock is unusually pointy?? Did the previous owner change the bridge too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattyrash Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Nice guitar. I like the red an awful lot. Great shots. What does Gibson class pickups mean? I am thinking of changing the pickups on my Sheraton. Tell more about the pickup change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
