Oh my lord I'm in troubblllleeee lmao, you're a FANTASTIC player, and just absolutely melting my heart with those gorgeous tones omg. Looooooooove this! The work you must have put into your playing is extremely admirable, very VERY nice job!
That opening solo is fantastic! Best thing I have heard in a long while. Brilliant phrasing, musicality, emotion and technique. You have such great taste in all your playing what a guitar player!
I have one! It was under a clients bed. She traded me. Got it overhauled, new pu, and it’s my go to electric. You’re right. So versatile. Love your playing
Wow Helen, this is such a beautiful guitar, and you make it sing! Love the piece that starts at 4:30, this would make a great opening theme for a road movie. The old pickup truck disappearing down a dusty road at sunset...
i love this guitare since i am 15, and i'm 40 now, despite never having played on one. It's just magnetic. And last year i was browsing all youtube for sheraton videos, and found your channel, and loved your videos !
I have this exact model -2019 - well crafted at an amazing price . Sounds close to as a 335 as you can get . This Wine Red model is getting very hard to find.. Thank you Helen for posting - really great talent and touch.
You might like an Epiphone Broadway. They no longer make it, but they're out there. I replaced the rosewood bridge with a tun-o- ABR-1 & love it. It is bigger than your Sheraton.
@9:06 same opinion ! these semi-hollow body has a special little thing in the sound that makes it a kind of guitar to have and to keep ! like a jazzmaster with his tremolo that give a special sound in the strings ! and the pickups ! Thank you for the review !
Helen, I have been a fan for a long time. You sold me on this guitar! I'm ordering the black one tomorrow from AMS. I'm a singer-songwriter & I can't wait to find the songs it has!!!
Wonderful playing , Helen! I ordered the Ebony model about two hours ago. Having watched this video of yours, I’d say I made a good decision. Love that you smile throughout your playing. Killer!!!!
I have one like that i bought it when i was19, few years later the Northridge Earth quake came and it fell and broke the toggle switch and some of the volume knobs , so i replaced all the electronics with better ones in the 1035$ and it was worth it sounds great has that deep base sound as well same color too,, keep playing Van Hellen i may post some vids of me playing soon with guitar backing tracks as well ,you inspired me gpd bless and take care
I also have a Sheraton, as well as a Fender Strat and a 1968 Gibson SG, and yet this is my favorite all-around guitar. I play a wide variety of styles and I do so so I can get more gigs, but this is the guitar I use for most of them whether blues, jazz, rock, country, etc., You sound great on it. As beautiful as the one playing it.
i have the same guitar same color too great guitar. the only thing ive done to the guitar is changed it to a nashville bridge and put treble bleeds in love your video's
Listening to music causes the brain to fire in an electronic sensor analysis, to look like a fireworks display. PLAYING music looks like a fireworks factory burning down. Love your playing and enthusiasm.
This must be the highlight of my year, although I know theres so much more highlights coming. Happy and blessed year to you too Helen. So looking forward to what you will be bringing to us this year.
So beautiful ❤️... I just started learning guitar scales... I do watch your videos now and again. You are like definition of the word "guitar role model"😅🌹!!!! How I wish to have close contact with you in music!!!!
I had a Sheraton in the 9ties, sold it & started regrettin' that real quick. 2 weeks ago I found me a new and even better one, and it came in 'midnight sapphire' blue: I just love it! Tnx for the vid, it sounds quite familiar :0)
So glad I found your channel 👍🏽 I was just looking at getting one of these Sheraton's and I was captivated by your music. I really enjoyed your review and your playing. Will be watching you from now on. Cheers from Florida 🍻🍻👍🏽👍🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
being a beatle fan i wanted a epiphone casino,to add to my colection,,but after research this is the guitar im getting,its easy to still get that treble the casino gets,but has the bass so all round and blues will be better on it ynwa
Superb playing. I've always been impressed by those few that can sing the notes that they are playing - like George Benson. Fabulous stuff - nice guitar tone too :)
I have an early 90s white Sheraton II when the truss rod cover still had Gibson on it. Picked it up a month ago at Sweetwater very cheap with original case. My band immediately started picking it up for everything. Wonderful guitar.
do you mean you have an Epiphone with [ Epiphone BY Gibson ] on the head stock?? if so [ me too great axe ] but i never seen another one, would be great to have any info on these guitars, i can not find anything. thanks mate. from Australia
Thanks for your thoughts daughter! I own the same guitar. Only in tuxedo black, with gold hardware. I love it! Seems as though you do as well! Blessings to you and yours. ☺️😌😄
A lot of top jazz players use Epiphone, Helen, have you tried the PRS Hollow body SE, getting great reviews and a fraction of the core price, saw Joe Walsh from the Eagles using one.
Just discovered your channel and I'm glad I did. You play with such happiness, it's a joy to watch someone with such great passion and you are a great player too!. Very tasteful note selection. Subscribed, Peace.
@HelenIbeMusic My dream guitar is an early 60's Casino like the Beatles and Howlin' Wolf played, the Sheratons are fantastic too!. I love your playing, your vibrato is so good, keep up the great work. Peace.
Yes...both pups have a pull up knob that splits the dual coils to single coil. Comes in handy when playing in middle position of pup selector... LOTS O' TONES...!!!😃 Everyone should have a semi-hollow in their pallet of tones😉 😎👍❤🖖
Just picked up a beautiful Ebony version of this guitar and I am in love. The neck profile is great for someone who has slightly smaller hands, so it's really comfortable to play. Each pickup volume pot is push/pull to split the coil, so, if you like a more quacky single coil tone, you can definitely coax that out of this guitar. In fact, I find myself playing it more split than not. The fit and finish of Epiphones in recent years has been superlative. I really enjoyed hearing you playing this guitar, Helen. You're always a joy to watch and listen to 🙂
You play Awesome I am a Epiphone freak I have a custom Silverburst I changed that cheap wire harness to A 50s wiring harness and I put some Custom Shop Pearly Gates in it it has all USA parts on it if you put some upgraded pickups it will make your tone sound even better and your Epiphone will sound Amazing I have been playing guitar for 51 years now and I still Jam with A Old School R& B Band.

Wonderful video. I've had my Sheridan for 20 years. Upgraded the pickups 4 years ago along with the wiring harness. It's the best.
That is awesome!
Helen, that guitar sure looks good on you, I could listen to you play all day 👍
Thank you! 😃
That first solo was sick!!!
Well, heck! I'm sold.
So beautiful ❤️... I just started learning guitar scales... I do watch your videos now and again. You are like definition of the word "guitar role model"😅🌹!!!! How I wish to have close contact with you in music!!!!
Feist handles one quite well too. The mid-vid solo sounded sweet too.

Yes...both pups have a pull up knob that splits the dual coils to single coil. Comes in handy when playing in middle position of pup selector...
LOTS O' TONES...!!!😃
Everyone should have a semi-hollow in their pallet of tones😉

Right on

I have the same (2016) Sheraton ii pro...It's getting rare and collectable as Wine Red was discontinued.. Respect. J. x
Stunning playing!
Thanks a lot!
@@HelenIbemusic Your spotify link doesn't seem to work :( Have you got a link?
Never mind - I found you!!!!
@PeteDonohue thanks for letting me know. I will check it out later…
@PeteDonohue in the meantime, simply go to Spotify and search me. I’m definitely on there.
Very interesting. I always thought the V-block inlays on the neck was exclusive to Guild guitars.
Just picked up a beautiful Ebony version of this guitar and I am in love. The neck profile is great for someone who has slightly smaller hands, so it's really comfortable to play. Each pickup volume pot is push/pull to split the coil, so, if you like a more quacky single coil tone, you can definitely coax that out of this guitar.

You're always a joy to watch and listen to 🙂
Thank you so much. Enjoy the new guitar
Great player and beautifull guitar
both volume knobs are push pull type / single coil split or double coil split.
Exactly! And all the while I had no idea 😅
Love this Sheraton,sounds great,thanks Helen,happy new year.
Thanks for listening
Stellar playing!! I heard some Tom Bukovac in there , very nice!!!
Thanks a lot!
