New Awesome Guitar Day!!!

Well, even the best of us can succumb to temptation, and indeed so have I. :neutral:

But I got a really cool new guitar! :grin:

It's a custom ordered Heritage H535 in antique natural over flame maple and P-90 pickups. :wink:

The sound will make you grin. If I was any happier with it, I'd have to put down some newspaper.

The pics don't do it justice. I'm no phtotgrapher.

What an absolute beauty!

Pretty beautiful. Nice work, definitely gonna make people jealous with that.

Excellent! Superbly crafted in my home town. I have an Eagle, 555, 150 Special and I just bought a '95 HFT-335, which is an acoustic flat top! Enjoy!:smile:

Thanks. The pictures really don't show how beautiful the flame is....and it sounds amazing.

Telenator,

I knew you had one. I've been wanting one for a while. Glad I was able to make the deal on it.

bee you tuh full!

Oh man, a P90 335-style is on the top of my GAS parade!

Congrats on a beauty!

Stunning!

Gorgeous guitar man, something to be proud of (and from the volume of pics you've uploaded it's easy to tell you are just a bit proud of her :wink:)

Dream guitar! I played a gig in Kalamazoo and wanted to tour the factory but it was Saturday and closed.....saved me some $$$$$
Congrates on a sweet guitar!

Gorgeous. How about some details... Is that flame maple all around and a mahogany neck? How's the neck? Fret size?

Congrats!!!

Yes, it's flame maple all around and a mahogany neck. The pictures don't really show it, but it has a golden brown tint to the finish. The neck is about like the one on my LP Studio; I'd call it medium. It's definitely a little bigger than a slim taper. As far as fret size, I think they are medium jumbo, I got .104 wide, and .45 to .5 high...it's harder to get an accurate height measurement.

Telenator,

Does the model you have have a smaller body, or a slightly different shape?

Very cool!! Beautiful grain, classic shape, unique twist. I'd say she's a keeper!

Oh, yeah! It's a keeper for sure. :grin:

I haven't had a chance to swap out the strings yet, but I'll probably do that tomorrow, and put my tweaks on the setup. Right now, the action is just a tad high over what I prefer.

Beautiful guitar. Congratulations. Plucky P90 joy.

That's the thing about GAS. Now I have it for yet another guitar that I never knew you could get. I'm at a loss here.
Congrats,

CC

That is a real pretty guitar!

Love those P90's.



Congratulations

Telenator,

Does the model you have have a smaller body, or a slightly different shape?

Yes, mine is smaller. It's a Blues Deluxe which is the same size as their Prospect model.

Awesome. Enjoy it in good health.

Those wide expanses of flame maple have me drooling.

Thanks. :wink:

Lovely! P90's are my favorite pups

Lovely guitar, gotta love P-90's !

My brother has a Heritage single cut Roy Clark model and it's a beautiful piece. Congrad's on that purchase.

Not really mentioned in any forum but Heritage makes some kick ass guitars. Congrats.

Gorgeous! Absolutely gorgeous!

Please let me know if you ever find yourself teetering on the brink of bankruptcy... :razz: :lol: :wink:

Aw hell, that's a daily occurrence around here. :oops:

Great to be able to shop local, when the product is as good as that:-)

Yes, you're right. I'm really glad I was able to get it. If I was any happier about it, I'd have to put down some newspapers. :wink:

That's one fine lookin guitar! I've got to hear you play it!!

Stunning!!

I'll second that! When are we getting together again?

Breathtaking Kalamazoo Girl Joe!!!!!!!!!
She's a masterpiece - 50 years from now jaws will still be dropping and drool buckets filling.
I've got a little experience with Double-Cut Thinlines and will tell You without any reservation without even having to Play Her that She's a Thoroughbred.

With Guild gone riding into The Sunset it's obvious to me that Heritage is taking full advantage of the situation, I mean to say where else in The Lower 48 can a Player get something like what Joe-Bob got without having to plunk down fortyfive hundred?!!!

I've always liked Heritage but they really got it happening as in - I'd rather take that Home than any other doublecut thinline out there...
Blown away.

If I was any happier with it, I'd have to put down some newspaper.

Dang, you've got more restraint than I do. Just looking at the pics makes me wish I'd put newspaper down first.

I'll second that! When are we getting together again?

Francis did say something about an open mike night in like 3 weeks...

New awesome guitar is new and awesome. Congratulations, I'm really happy for you! I love p90s.

New awesome guitar is new and awesome. Congratulations, I'm really happy for you! I love p90s.

Thanks, and P-90s really are the real deal, aren't they? The more I play P-90 guitars, the more I think I might not need a Telecaster anymore...uh, did I say just that out loud? :oops:

Good for you Joe-Bob. I had a Heritage Prospect from 2001 until I sold it recently. Needed the money. It was a fine guitar, it had humbuckers. Funny thing about that one was it was stolen and I found it in a GC a few months later. It looked like a 335, only with a slightly smaller body.

Yum.

Congrats!

Play dat Kalamazoo!

Me too. I actually still cannot believe how good my Heritage is.

That thing is awesome!
