Fit Gibson
A look at what is currently available on eBay
Aside from the pickups what is the difference between the epiphone sheraton 2 and the gibson 335?
It seems to me that these two guitars share virtually all the same components, so why the price difference? As the owner of an epiphone sheraton 2 myself i can't help but wondering, if i fitted it with gibson pickups would it essentially be the same as a gibson 335?
The biggest difference is where it's made. The Epiphone is made in China (or Korea) and the Gibson is made in the US. So the labor cost is way different. The wood quality is also a higher grade and the neck is solid wood on the Gibson. The Sheraton has a laminated neck. But are the differences worth $2000? Probably not. Somebody buying a Gibson is buying the name as well as the guitar.
