Millennium Maestro Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Paul, I really like the features on your 170, really like the controls... Functionality is huge with me. Since we are with 170s, here is mine. Here is one of my New keepers an Ultra One piece top, Lollar Imperials, Coiltaps, Locking tuners... She plays like a dream after her fret level!

rockabilly69 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Hey Yoop, I remember when I was looking for a Gibson L5s, I considered having a guitar like your's built because they have a similar vibe! I was wondering if the Heritage guys would do the cupid bow like on my Firebirst? And I gotta wonder if any of the Heritage guys had a hand in building my L5s, as they were still working for Gibson when both of mine were made!!!

He custom ordered some with those things. They do work well, but look odd to me too. Here is a full graduation photo of Mr. Roman's Class of 59 H150's...Some have regular Grovers, and others have Imperials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
