Saying hi. Just picked up a 1989 (I think) Heritage H555, blond flame maple, 3 piece maple neck and gold hardware. Love the look, and am learning the sound and when to use it. Right now, she's in the shop for a fret level. Some other relevant guitars in the herd include a Guild X500 Stuart Benedetto in a dark wine color which I use to accompany my wife who sings, a Schaefer Swingmaster for unamplified settings and a Mike Stern clone that is my versatile, travel (replaceable) guitar.
One of my teachers, Calvin Keys, in Oakland, CA, has a Heritage which turned me on to the brand.
The serial is sort of smudged, but is stamped in gold and I think starts with an F. Were H555s made in that year and what was the spec?
cheers, m
