photos.app.goo.gl/ptrgQvvyCPTDsP616Picked up a used '97 Epiphone Sorrento on the cheap. It arrived yesterday with worn out strings, crappy action and dirty pots. I took it apart, cleaned up the pots, frets and restrung it with 11s. Now the action is on point, the pots don't scratch and it looks fairly sharp. It's fully hollow and I'm looking forward to hearing it through my Z this weekend when I have the house to myself.

Lee- it's very similar but it's thin line depth not the fat deep hollowbody.

I dig the color. Those Epi P-90 pickups are nice, I've got a set on my Casino. Congrats!

"worn out strings, crappy action and dirty pots" sounds like the start of a good country song.
That guitar looks SWEET!

Hmm... one of our local shops has one of those used. Sounds like it might be worth a look. But that shop seems to specialize in guitars with worn out strings and crappy action. ;-)

This guitar is gone now. Traded it for a Martin acoustic. Nut width was too small for my hand. Felt cramped when trying to play it.
