How is that a H-137?  That's a 140 or possibly a 147.  Is Heritage going to start putting humbuckers in the 530?

The 137 is a flat slab of mahogany with P-90s.  Buckers and maple cap should justify a different model designation.  Beauty for sure.  I'm a tad confused.

There is absolutely no carve to the top.  It's as flat as can be.  There is no maple cap either, its a thick veneer.

Unfortunately, its price tag is above a 150 if memory serves.  But a stunner in person.

IMHO, the spunk in the 137 comes from the Lollar P-90s.   I have a Hammer like that, with humbuckers, it's no where near the muse of the 137.

Can’t say I’ve ever seen one of those besides this old stock photo.

Back when they were first available, I spotted one for sale at Eddie's Guitars.  It sold before I could pick up the phone to inquire about it.

Here's  NAMM photo from 2010:

Probably the same guitar from the stock photo.
