MJO Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Sorry if this has been covered before, but I can’t find it. I have recently acquired this guitar and I haven’t seen any others with these pickups. Guitar has a 1987 serial number. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulk1 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Don't recall seeing Heritage branded covers, before. Kinda cool. Is that a roller bridge on a wooden base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houndhome Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 I have to add that the plastic covers on my H575 are plain,without the Heritage logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houndhome Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Coming back to this topic,i was going through some old Heritage publicity today and came across a write up reprinted from SOUNDS dec.10th 1988 by Garry Cooper (?) about the H575 which described the pickups (shown with the "The Heritage" written across the bridge pickup as being ACT humbuckers. I cant find any info on ACT,is this just another brand name for Schallers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houndhome Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 They dont appear to be,certainly not on my H575,nor mentioned that way in the SOUNDS review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalismanRich Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Have you popped out a pickup to look at the back? Schallers usually have the name embossed into the backplate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
