Sound of Epiphone Elitist Sheraton Electric Guitar
a different more calm sound then the Casino, very smooth;
can cover all the bases with amazing tones;
plays and sounds like a dream;
it isn’t so thick and chunky as a Les Paul, nor is it as thin and spanky as a Strat, closest to a 335, but clearer, snappier, and more dynamically responsive;
very versatile, feel free to try any styles;
warm, clear jazz tone with the controls set neutral, front pickup;
the middle pickup setting (both pickups): the 1960’s-70’s Gretsch sound that Chet Atkins used to have, still very warm but with some sparkle;
the back pickup great country or rockabilly sound;
unplugged has a sweet accustic sound;
