  1. Congratulations.. even tho I'm a bassist and own a Heritage HB2, I totally appreciate the quality of Heritage guitars.. They are beautifully crafted and they play like butter.. You got yourself a fine guitar man.. Enjoy her..
  2. Ren told me he made it.. It was a prototype.. we've had some phone conversations about it.. He's a really cool guy..
  3. Hi I'm Tommy.. I'm a professional bassist for 60 years.. tried to learn guitar as a kid but it just didn't work for me.. When I was 10 my cousin let me hold his 57 J bass and it was like when Harry Potter found his magic wand.. I could play this thing and I've played bass ever since.. Upright bass, bass guitar, sousaphone and tuba all thru school and college.. I didn't choose to be a bassist.. the bass chose me and I'm still a working musician at age 71 and have no intention of retiring.. I am also the proud owner of an HB2 prototype bass made by Ren in 1987 and its the finest playing bass I've ever played.. I'm glad to be a part of HOC.. Thanks for having me..
  4. Ren definitely made mine.. I've had several conversations with him over the past couple of months and he always wondered what happened to it.. He's a really great guy.. I'm just honored to be the caretaker of such a phenomenal instrument.. It's truly the finest playing bass I've ever been privileged to have in my hands..
  5. Thank you Skydog.. according to Heritage this is one of the original basses they made.. It was the prototype design for the ones they made later on and they never made many basses, compared to guitars.. It is an amazing instrument..
  6. Hi.. I'm Tommy and brand new here.. I just came into possession of a 1987 Heritage HB2.. As a professional bassist for over 50 years I've owned dozens of basses including some very high end customs and this bass is hands down the sweetest playing bass I've ever layed my hands on.. It plays like butter.. It has immediately become my main bass, over my Washburn 6 string which has been totally rebuilt and plays like a dream and my 1964 fretless P bass which I bought new in 1964 and had its teeth pulled in 1972.. I always thought it was the sweetest bass ever until I played the Heritage.. This bass is so amazing it should be illegal.. The body is transparent going to translucent black cherry, the neck is flame maple with a rosewood fretboard, Grover tuners, Dimarzio pickups, and a Badass II bridge.. I honestly believe I couldn't find a finer playing instrument at any price.. Its an honor to be its caretaker and I'm gonna play the frets off of it.. I love this bass..?
