I just noticed that the H-137 is no longer listed on the Heritage Guitar website.

Has it been discontinued?  Just curious.

Yes. They discontinued it a few years ago.  They told me they weren't selling like they wanted and I suspect Harmony was coming

online around that time.

Last order form that had them on it was 2019. If you can get them to do a Custom it's a possibility.

2019??  Was the HOC H-137 included in the last batch?  I thought it was 2020.

Don't know about that. I just know that the 2019 order form had it on it and the 2020 had it off. I remember them contacting me 

sometime in between and stating they are discontinuing the standard H-137. 

Wasn't that a special run?

Is that flamed Korina??

 

 

The HOC spec looked awesome, it was bad timing for me as I was in debt to a certain guitar whilst having to sell others off, but in the pics they turned out wonderful. 

Yes

When I placed that order, the 137 was already close if not discontinued.  That’s why the HOC models were such a big deal.  Wish more people realized that and took advantage while they still could.

Now used normal 137’s cost as much as the HOC 137….

I like the old 137s better.  I have a custom gold top 2010 old style and I bought my daughter a first generation, 1997 -her birth year, used for Christmas several years ago.  The newer models never clicked with me.  These two are not for sale.  ?

That was a rare model.  They did have a 137 with a flame maple veneer a couple years ago that was a hot seller I heard, but I don’t know anyone that has one.

 I had an H137 in TV yellow for a long time, eventually sold it ( not long before the HOC H137 was announced! ) due to lack of use. It was a great guitar but I have other P90 gtrs I was using more.

 

Still miss it though: it had a great neck & you can't beat a slab of mahogany with P90's!

Spent a couple hours with mine last night.  The noiseless P90's are killer.  Plus it has a huge neck that keeps my hand fatigue to a minimum.

Too bad. They are great players and quite a bit lighter than a 150.

Glad I was one of the six custom orders in 2020!

Yes you have quite the collection started now!

My collecting is finished.  Nowadays I’m pondering which ones I’ll take to the grave….

I must be getting forgetful in my old age as I don’t recall selling that one. Somebody must be really pissed at me if I did because I know I never shipped it.

It was a Jedi mindtrick being used to think you were selling him your 137....
