    This is the first I've read of any band using Ampeg VT22 guitar amps. Great (LOUD & HEAVY) rig! I bought it new around 1970-ish to replace my old Fender Pro (1x15). That VT22 was so heavy, I had to beef up the rear suspension on my Dodge Dart. 🙂🤪

    @brentrocks...Brother, you are the original 'fix-it dude' when it comes to battered Heritage guitars. Like your former broke-neck 535 of a few years back, this restored CC 535 came out great!

    RIP Eric. Blessings to your family. 🙏

    60's slim taper neck profile on the new 'Standard II Collection" models?? Maybe they're targeting youngsters looking for their first guitar. I begged for a guitar when I was 12, so I get it. As long as Heritage continues to offer thicker necks as an option across the product line, I see this as no big deal.

    IIRC, the last truly great Heritage announcement was the introduction of the beautiful H-717 archtop. I have no idea what's coming, but the speculation gave me another excuse to post this amazing (expensive) archtop. 🙂 https://heritageguitars.com/pages/core-collection-h-717?srsltid=AfmBOoqdWZn8YIQImFh9CiCxkXtGveUNpvw0waqpsgALxuwmldPvLK_c

    Good decision. It's much easier to convert a humbucker equipped guitar to P90 than the other way around. There are many quality humbucker-sized P90 on the market. Sometimes the best solution is to buy another guitar. At least, that's what I've been telling my wife over the years. 🙂

    Have you reached out to the seller or Heritage about your concerns? https://heritageguitars.com/pages/contact

    @CVS...Welcome to the HOC. You certainly have all of the sonic basses covered with that amazing trio. In my view the versatile H530 fits perfectly between the 137 and 575. 👍

    @TalismanRich...Now THAT is a sweet H530. Congratulations. 🤩

    @brentrocks...I really like the new look. Very cool silverburst H157!!

    At a minimum, they could have had a 40th Anniversary truss rod cover to set them apart...

    And it has a flame maple pickguard like the originals! 😍

    @rockabilly69...Very cool thread and great playing, as usual. You rung out that old rig. Here's another historical reference to Leo Fender (and many other heros of electric guitar and amp fame) that is a great read. https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Birth_of_Loud/VDxqDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover

    Tad, I am so happy for you!  (And only a little jealous).  I've been looking at SKB's for years, but above my budget.

    You are going to love that big girl.

    You have amassed some of the most beautiful and creative designs of Heritage guitars! I'm certain each of them comes with their own special stories from concept to execution. Fantastic!

    Hey Dan,

    Just a quick note.  Cool looking Harmony!  I had one like it back in the day, and still have two single pickup Stratotones. 

    Is this yours?

    Awesome collection, Jay! You need to have a calendar made of all of your exquisite custom Heritage's.

    Gitfiddler's H157 #11
    Sure! I had it custom wired with 3 vol., 1 master tone, and pull up center p'up. Ren guided my guitar tech by phone to get it done right. Tons of tones!

    Golden Eagle - body
    Close. It is 'Old Style Burst' (OSB). Classic brown outside with a touch of reddish-to-dark yellow center. The amazing quilt back looks a touch lighter and more on fire in sunlight. Best of all, it sounds amazing. Thanks for looking.
