  1. Welcome Loaded 6

     

    If you are looking to special order, i suggest you call and talk to the boys yourself 1st.  Email Ren, he usually answers with in 1 day (tell him what you want to do, and that you are a HOC member)... heritageguitar@kalamazoo.net

     

    then go to your dealer and spec it out....have your dealer call Heritage and get the ball rolling.  Heritage is not super busy right now, so your guitar may get completed quicker than you may think.

     

    good luck ;D

  2. Hi, everyone,

     

    I recently picked up a later model stock Prospect after owning an H535.  I like the Prospect much better but maybe that's because I had a fair amount done to it by luthier, Mike Lull in Seattle.  It required fret re-gluing (as did my H535) a nut replacement and PLEK.  Now it's the cat's meow...my main rig on stage, along with a G&L Bluesboy. At some point I may end up replacing the stock Schaller p-ups but I'm researching what others are saying and results they are getting.  Any ideas pass them my way!

    Welcome Rick!

  3. Hi There Folks,

     

    My name is Fons (45 yo) and I live in a very small, tiny country, called the Netherlands. I'am not a Heritage owner yet, but I will become one next weekend. I surfed for weeks on the internet to find myself a new guitar and studied al kinds of brands. Suddenly there she was: the H 575. I immediately fell in love with here. Love at first sight, you know!  :love3::love4: There's no doubt about it anymore: I definitely going to buy the H 575. So I decided to become a member of the Heritage Owners Club.

     

    CU,

    Fons

     

    Congrats on your purchase...those are sweet axes!!!

     

    Welcome to the club....i have relitives in Belgium....i have been in your neck of the woods a couple times ;D

  4. Hi Gitfidler

    Thanks for the invite - my name is Chris.  I live in Exeter, UK and only recently discovered Heritages - they are still a well kept secret over here.  Found a lovely blonde H-535 from 1990 that was owned by a collector and looks like it has never been played in anger. Just had to replace the pickup selector - which seems to have seized from lack of use!

    Wonder if anyone can help on a couple of issus.  The frets on my 535 seem very high, particularly at the nut end, so fretting a fixed note on bottom E gets tricky as the pitch varies alot according to finger pressure.  Is this a fret or nut problem?

    Also does anyone know anything about / have opinions on the H-101 model? I have a chance to buy one but have no idea what it is worth.

    Thanks

    Hi Chris...Welcome!

     

    nice 535!  as far as the guitar in the pic, i really dont know.  i have seen that on ebay a few months ago.  it is a Heritage neck, but the body?????????  proceed w/ caution!!!

  5. My Heritages are a 1990 Johnny Smith purchased in 1990, and a recent purchase, A CM 140 All Gold which I think is from 1991.

    The 140 had some Shaller stuff on it and exposed Symore Duncan Humbuckers.

    I changed that out for TonePros bridge and tail piece an a set of Seth Lovers.

    Result it plays fantastic and sounds great acoustically and amplified.

    I will post pictures when possible.

     

    WELCOME!!!

     

    I AND MANY OTHERS WOULD LOVE TO SEE PICS!!

  6. Hello to all.

     

    I have been playing guitar (off-and-on) for over 20 years and in the last 5 years or so have really gotten back into it.

     

    Someone introduced me to Heritage guitars recently and I'm pretty excited by them.  I figured this forum would be a great place to learn about them.

     

    I've always been into Gibson Les Pauls.  The first electric guitar I remember playing was my uncle's Les Paul Custom Black Beauty when I was about 6 years old and my first electric, bought when I was about 14, was an ebony Gibson LP Standard.

     

    You will therefore not be surprised to hear that that I am particularly drawn to the H157.

     

    Welcome DK!!!

     

    157 are the Berries!!!

     

    good luck in your search!!!

  8. Hello everyone. My name is Bill (bilbal) and I am new to Heritage Guitars and the Owners Club. I am going to pick up my first Heritage (H535 Classic) tomorrow afternoon. I am extremely excited to get her. Here is a quick picture:

    The new Heritage will be the newest addition to my gear. I also have a James Trussart Steelcaster, Modulus Graphite Blackknife 3H, Composite Acoustic Legacy Performer, American Strat, Godin Freeway Floyd, and a Tokia Telecaster. For amplifiers I use a Soldano SLO and a Vox AC50. I also use Creation Audio Labs, Fuchs Audio Technology, Korg, and Lexicon effects.

     

    I look forward to meeting new people and discussing gear. I also look forward to helping in any way I can.

     

    Sincerely,

    bilbal   :)

     

    Welcome Bill.... :)

     

    Very nice 535!  thanks for posting a pic! ;D  let us know what you think of it.

  9. Hello everyone,

    My name is Bob and I'm from Southeast Michigan!

    I had plans to purchase a guitar that slightly resembles a Heritage, I forgot the name. I think it started with a G or something like that. But I have decided to buy an original Heritage instead. I have lot's of questions though, so I'll be posting them elsewhere. Glad to meet everyone and thanks for letting me join the forum.

     

    Welcome Bob! ;D

  10. Jorgen ...

     

    I'm afraid I have given in to temptation and Heritage number 4 is on the way , a Prospect in Antique Sunburst ...

    I was also aided and abetted by a certain prominent HOC member not unfamiliar to yourself ...  :rolleyes:

     

    I am right in the middle of a particularly bad attack of GAS and will be eating jam and bread for the next few months  ;D

     

    man that thing is sweet...you will be amazed when you see it in person ;D

  11. Hey everyone, thought I'd join in.

     

    My quest for my first Heritage guitar has lead me to this very forum, where I am in hopes of landing a nice H-150. Never played Heritage before, to my knowledge they aren't even sold anywhere in Iowa. It seems the gleaming reviews and the history behind these guitars is really all I need. Right now I play an Edwards Les Paul through my Orange Tiny Terror, great guitar, but I'd love to make the step up to a Heritage.

     

    WELCOME OJ!!!!

     

    there are a bunch of nice 150s on ebay fro VERY good prices...take your pick!!!  but dont wait too long, prices are on the rise :wink:
