Yep. Sheraton II. I own an ebony model. Picked it up dirt cheap at a pawn shop because kids only want solid bodies. Truss rod was completely loose on it. She's a great player now.
I had a Sheridan II just like this one Dave's working on and sold it to a friend because he wouldn't leave me alone about it... he's no longer a friend and I wish I never let it go...I truly miss it... very nice job on her Dave!
Nice one, Dave! Especially interesting this time. You corrected some serious playability issues. Be prepared: the owner may be seriously overjoyed! The finger fun at about 14:50 was hilarious!
TBH that's all general maintenance stuff dude. Nothing there every guitar won't need sooner or later. Only criticism I have is that you NEVER clean off another man's mojo. Its just wude.
From Leo: Nice fix of the neck hump. I have a Jazzmaster that intonates straight across like that. I have checked and rechecked, but lining up all the saddles is what it needs. The planets must have lined up perfectly that day, It just seems weird.
Google forgot I watched, liked, and commented on this vageo, so I watched the whole thing again, liked it again, liked my own comment, and commented again. Good thing, because I've finally worked up the nerve to do this(ski slope correction) to my Dot studio.
Wow! I always learn something new, when I watch you work, Dave. When you said the radius on the fret sanding block was 12", I was thinking it should be 14"! Then I went to the Epi website and found out that the electrics are now 12", ala Gibby! When did that happen? I have two Korean Epi's, an '88 Sherry II and a '07 Firebird; both 14" radii. So, if your working on your 'older' Epi, be sure of what the radius on the fret board, actually is. Thanks, Dave
These are (mostly) decent guitars. Refret with some Jescar evo gold or stainless fw55090: costs $30 for the wire, couple of hours time and effort and you got a better player than most non cs Gibson 335's. 👍
Hi Dave, wow strange to see that I'm having the very same problem as discussed with my Epi DOT, except over on the low E side. Cant wait to meet up in a few weeks.
These Gibson/Epiphone's have this issue a lot! It seems like many that have come in your shop have this issue. FYI-You have several areas of repeats in the video.
When I see you tighten the bridge to bring it down...it's a one way ticket. Loosening it won't bring it back up. Wonder what you'd do if you wanted it a bit higher..on one side, for instance. Surprised to see gold/brass colors on the metal here, but they have a metal color on the toggle nut parts.
Hiya Dave dont know if you know or not but your video repeats its self, from the start up to where you adjust the truss rod, then video starts from the beging again, Cheers
In all the videos of yours that I’ve watched I’ve never seen you put any lube on the truss rod Nut. I’d think a drop on the threads would prevent it from sticking in the future. 🤔🤔🤔
I have had better success getting the sand paper off after putting carnauba wax on the block before the sand paper.I had the same problems and decided to try that once. Seems to help, not saying its perfect but much better I have at least found.
two knobbed dot is called the dot studio. some of my favorite guitars. very simple and stripped back. funny enough the dot studio doesnt have any inlays on the fretboard, even though it is a dot (named after the dot inlays)
Editor asleep at the wheel. Freudian slip of the middle finger. Though the tin was just off camera, and Dave failed to ID it, pretty sure the little puff ball he used on p'up covers was Never Dull. A well earned sandwich D.
It definitely is a Sheraton II....I have the Sheraton Pro II in the wine. Probably one of the most underrated guitars around...especial among Semi-hollows. I sold my 1985 Gibson 335, because this one was actually better and cheaper.
Love the vids, Dave! Bought a 1990’s Epiphone 435i “super Strat” used recently for a song and a dance and it played like crap. Applied what I learned from you and found the neck was dead straight and the action way high. Adjusted the truss rod, set the action and plays awesome now!
Dave can you tell me where to get a notched straight edge for a full size bass. What should the length of it be??? Thanks in advance. Not Stew... they want $100 bucks!
The deja vu is strong with this one! :-)
Seeing double .... Feeling single ....
I thought some old mushrooms or acid were kicking in.
That's how you know an agent is nearby. Run Neo!
I've seen that somewhere before...
It's like deja vu... all over again!
I love your videos! You've helped me set up my basses so they play like butter! Thanks and cheers, Dave!
it's a Sharaton II actually. the vine headstock and gold hardware give it away.
Yep. Sheraton II. I own an ebony model. Picked it up dirt cheap at a pawn shop because kids only want solid bodies. Truss rod was completely loose on it. She's a great player now.
Also the fingerboard inlays are not 'dots'
I've owned both the Sheraton and Dot. The Sheraton was far superior in every way and you can get one used for about the same price.
@@kwoods1960 I was going to say that's why the intonation was correct
And the fact there's no "dot" fret markers.
Dave ja Vue: that feeling that you've seen this part before.
De ja Moo: as Dave tells us!!

Fantastic Dave! Dammit. Great to have you here. I'll be with you this spring to fix my favourite guitar.
Thanks for the video echo effect for us old folks. Cheers Dave.

What you got there is an Epiphone Sheraton. Great sounding guitar. A shame it needed so much help.

Thanks, Dave. I've waited about a year for this one to hit your bench. Don't mind a bit the parts that repeated, so, change nothing!

I was not expecting that intonation!
NO ONE expects the Spanish Intonation!
Hey Dave the beginning of video is stuck in a time loop continium!Nice guitar good luck with your eyes,Cheers have a great weekend.

I first watched this video with a hangover and went right back to bed. I thought the deja vu problem was all mine.
“Watcha wanna see is this nice little blue sliver left at the top” X 2!!!
Hi Dave, wow strange to see that I'm having the very same problem as discussed with my Epi DOT, except over on the low E side. Cant wait to meet up in a few weeks.
Best advice ever! "Check it again tomorrow". Thanks, Dave!!
I thought it was gonna be “gooched”! Nice job- and loved the hand jive bout the strings- Vintage Classical Dave

21:12 Unfortunately those bridges are near impossible to find.
Careful Dave, Warner will be on your case for that outro! Think that's a Sheraton by the way. Thank you sir.
I love my Sheraton II, I set it up with what I learned from Dave here and stuck better pickups in it, now it's by far my favourite guitar.
Hiya Dave dont know if you know or not but your video repeats its self, from the start up to where you adjust the truss rod, then video starts from the beging again, Cheers
ditto
happens several times
@@TheSTILLSTANDINGIt's called "DAVE ja Vue"!
Also when he talks about crowning the frets, I thought it was an April Fool's day joke but that's not until tomorrow.
Dave got himself gooched before doing the editing.
another great job Gave!!
Please don't go out to the garden and die! I enjoy your videos and craftsmanship too much!
I have one of those. Fantastic guitar.
Beautiful instrument
Oookay what was I yammering on aboöt? Lol you're a riot, Dave. Love all your videos! Even if you keep doin-a-same thing över-an-över again!
That looks like a Sheraton. Doesn't a DOT have, you know, dot inlays?
I have a Dot Super from 2007 that has big block inlays. Go figure.
Up here in New England, they would call that a 'Dawt'. ;-)
OK ya got me ...The old double up editing ...Thought I was loosing it... I'm assuming it was an early April Fools prank. Great vid as always.
Concerns? Perhaps about short term memory? Someone complained to me about that, but I forgot who, so it never happened....
love the videos and the outtrow was funny and i larned from you how to set up my guitars and basses and your really funny to keep it up man
That was the most grammatically challenged run on sentence I've ever seen. Bravo.
Dave's déjà vu videos are cool
Video repeats itself several times.
wish you'd shown all the fret work
Good morning Dave
Cheers Dave

Dave stars in Epiphone Day.
I like this video ... I like this video. Thx DR
We need a list of all of Your awesome vocabulary!
Wish my Dot was as sweet looking as that Sheraton
I thought the DOTwas the lower priced 1volume 1 tone with the unbound dot marker finger board... That one is fancy...
two knobbed dot is called the dot studio. some of my favorite guitars. very simple and stripped back. funny enough the dot studio doesnt have any inlays on the fretboard, even though it is a dot (named after the dot inlays)
That's an Epiphone Sheraton ... wish I had one
Thank God for people who don't maintain their guitars. It keeps the Gooch in Business.
I think you are hitting the treble side harder with the crowning file.
Was it Friday night when you edited this Dave LOL.
Peace Dave

“Before I pull the strings off”
Doesn’t matter Dave - sometimes my finger also has some involuntary movement😉
A bit of Dave-ja-vu at the start!
I think Davey's blood sugar was low when he edited this one. Go eat a sammich Dave!
This was published the day before April Fools Day but it must have been, but it must have been edited on Groundhog Day.
Hey Dave. I notice you use a different neck rest for levelling. Why is this?
Thx
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks . Is there a Canadian seller for that neck support?
The deja vu episode! A glitch in the Matrix?
Straight saddles......lol intonation for the nation, rock on Dave! You da man!
Pete and Repeat were in a boat, Pete fell out . Who is left? LOL
Dave can you tell me where to get a notched straight edge for a full size bass. What should the length of it be??? Thanks in advance. Not Stew... they want $100 bucks!
Look up a company called Neck Check, or something like that. Try eBay as well.

Is is a Sheraton II and no Dot.
Good video Dave except for to two repeated parts
That's a Sheraton btw
It's Dave's deja vu
SANDWICH 🥪 TIME!!! 21:35
Jeez, that's a pretty guitar. I hope you can CPR it back to the living.
Instant replay at 3:40 ?
Yep And 11:00 repeats at 11:10
I'm not seeing it at 3:40 .
@@KozmykJ Yes... 11:00 and 11:10 is a repeat (Gooch). I don't think 3:40 is, though.

a little bit of Groundhog day at the start
and at about 11.00 mins
The plating is worn because strings were touching them?
Yer some man Dave
This actually not a Dot, it's the lesser known Epiphone Block.
This is not an Epiphone DOT. The DOT has dot inlays and not block inlays. That's why he's called DOT.
There's a repeated section in this video. Gooched! :-) Oops, just found another repeat.....
The editing looks like you got some glaucoma medicine.
Why doesn't the Dot have dot markers ?
Because it’s a Sheraton ll
because it´s not.. It´s a Sheraton..
Thanks, I thought I was going senile.
This Dot's a Blockhead.
@@Riverdeepnwide lol
Bracket for pickguard seems too high.
The only thing more repetitive than this video is the comments about this video being repetitive...
Dave? We voted. It's a Sheraton.
This video took three attempts to watch. It kept saying unavailable. Not sure if the problem is on my end or yours. Just thought I'd let you know
Really love your channel, but what's with the fancy intro?
I love Sheratons
Looks like you spliced the leading 3:45 twice and again another part further on, Dave.
Oh, well... that's twice the fun of postproduktion. 😉
I'm suffering from deja vu
Your saying somethings twice Dave.
Isn't that a Sheraton ? .
Yea, shoot laser beams into my eyes
so this guitar has two truss rods?
What kind of sandwich are we havin today Dave?
Uncle Davie seemed a bit 'extra chatty' in this vid. Perhaps he had a Molson or three before the shoot?
A dot without dots???
