Epiphone unveils the Masterbilt Gem Archer Sheraton, a new artist model inspired by a legendary guitar
Epiphone is proud to introduce the Masterbilt Gem Archer Sheraton, a signature model honoring the iconic 1966 Sheraton played by Gem Archer—renowned for his work with Oasis, Beady Eye, and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. Originally loaned to Gem by Noel Gallagher, the vintage Sheraton remains a staple in his collection, and this new release pays tribute to that cherished instrument.
First launched in 1958, the Sheraton is a classic Epiphone original. This latest Masterbilt edition blends timeless semi-hollowbody design with premium craftsmanship and components, reflecting the same high standards found in Epiphone’s Inspired by Gibson Custom lineup. It even features the etched Double Diamond emblem on the back of the headstock, a hallmark of those elite models.
Built with a 5-ply layered maple and poplar body and a solid maple centerblock, the Masterbilt Gem Archer Sheraton offers enhanced sustain and reduced feedback. Multi-ply binding accents the top, back, headstock, and fretboard, while the one-piece mahogany neck sports a comfortable 60s C profile. A rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets is adorned with elegant mother-of-pearl block and abalone triangle inlays. The large Sloped Dovewing headstock showcases the historic Epiphone logo and a Tree of Life motif, both inlaid in mother-of-pearl.
Finished in a rich Vintage Gloss and fitted with gold hardware throughout, the guitar includes Grover® Rotomatic® tuners with Milk Bottle buttons and a Graph Tech® nut for stable tuning. An ABR-1 bridge and Casino™-style raised diamond trapeze tailpiece complete the setup.
The electronics that power the Masterbilt Gem Archer Sheraton include a pair of USA-made Gibson Mini Humbucker™ pickups, each with dedicated volume and tone controls using CTS® potentiometers and Mallory™ capacitors. A Switchcraft® three-way toggle and ¼” output jack ensure reliable signal routing. Available in both right-handed and left-handed configurations, the guitar ships with a durable Epiphone hardshell case, making it ready for the road and the stage.
