Cryoman Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 CNSB (Chestnut Sunburst) is what they call it. Looks better than the photos show, really a fiery color with more flame than evident. I'm very pleased with it so far and newly inspired to play, play, play. Has Seth Lovers and is very resonant (acoustically). Likely the most resonant electric I've ever owned. I think I like the Tone-Pros gear over the older Schaller. I may install a Faber post set, however. So pleased to have a 2nd Heritage in my small collection (having sold my 150 ("Winey") and my 157 a few years back.) Now where are my bone nut blanks..? This Micarta/Corian is just too white for me. Cheers. Cryoman PS. The cat's pretty happy with the new guitar too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterbright Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 At first I thought the cat had died in admiration. Put those bone nuts in some coffee before installing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gitfiddler Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Congratulations on the new 150. She's a hot one! Play it in good health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyGrass Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 The top is as good as it gets. CNSB is not one of the original LP finishes, but there is none better. The flaming is rich without being audacious. And the white binding and accessories offset the red and orange perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryoman Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Thanks all. Black speed knobs? Not sure the gold vintage knobs are the best. I saw another thread with a wine colored 535 made perfect with black knobs... Cheers Cryoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOGBOY Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Congrats on the new one, just the right amount of red in that. I think your right on the black knobs, for example from mine with similar color and same hardware and plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cryoman Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hey Gitfiddler! Thanks for the kind offer on the black speed knobs! I'll take them and give them a try. If I don't use them I'll return them and STILL owe you a favor. Thanks! On the chrome knob suggestion (and the nice 535 showing them off...) wow! Never would imagine so cool (but I'm a fraidy cat to take my new 150 so far from Kalamazoo toward Fullerton....). I'm gonna mull that over.... HFB - that 535 is awesome!! Cheers and thanks!

Cryoman Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 PS. In response to Gitfiddler's good karma, I have some new all gold speed knobs I'll offer to someone in need.... Gitfiddler, you get first dibs.... Should you not want them then the 1st to send an e-mail/private forum mail! Cheers, Cryoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
