I ordered a new guitar the other day from a dealer on gbase.com and it arrived today!!! This is my "new" '92 or '93 Epiphone Sheraton II:

and just for fun here are my other guitars: my '92 Les Paul Studio:

'01-'02 American Strat:

'07 Warmoth SG:

I just bought some polish and strings today so forgive me for the fingerprints on the pickups and body. Thanks for checking out my guitars.

56k is a bit much to pay for an epiphone

I hope you're not serious jason!

Dali: I've been looking for one for quite a while and i found a really good deal on gbase. Once I saw it and called the guitar store to inquire about it I had to have it.

AK, theyre all great looking guitars, but that Warmoth SG really caught my eye. Did you do all the work yourself?

GuitarHack: Yea, it was definitely harder than I thought it was gonna be and I used the internet a lot to figure things out. It was mainly assembling because I got the body and neck from warmoth. I did do some drilling for the some of the controls and pickguard. I also did the finish on the body and the neck. If you were wondering why I picked the sg it was because not too many people build their own sg's, it's mainly people doing a strat and I just wanted to be different.

And if anyone was confused: I didn't pay 56k for the sheraton, just letting people with dial up know the pictures were large and may slow their computer down. Sry if i confused anyone. (I'm assuming jason got it but was just messing with me).

Well I have 56K but it was worth the wait. (No, I'm not that cheap, I live in the middle of nowhere ...... well, 50 miles north of the middle of nowhere) Nice guitars. My Les Paul Studio is a 1992, it is black with gold hardware and an ebony board.

They could've made a really really really nice epiphone ...or maybe it's like autographed on the back or something :roll:
