Gibson PAF Pickups History: Five Watt World
bolero replied to HANGAR18's topic in Amplification and Effects
This is a convoluted statement of logic: "The characterization that a great burst Les Paul sounds like a Telecaster on steroids is really talking about how a humbucking pickup succeeded in sounding like a quiet P90" WTF I've never heard anyone say a great burst Les Paul sounds like a Telecaster with P90's -

Great book! Basically pictures and not much text/info at all. Still a great book though! I'm just stating, if you get a chance to grab one thinking there's a lot of info to read, facts, etc, there is not. Great photos of old school Heritage though! -

I do remember this when it came out. I never saw it in person. -
While surfing the inter-web, I found this ad for a Heritage Guitars coffee table book by Victor H. Dvorak. It was published in 2012! I never knew this existed! I didn't order one ($82.00 is a bit hefty) but wanted to pass the info along to ya'll.

I have an extra Heritage 575 case if you are interested in buying. PM me if interested. I know my 575 has a 16inch lower bout and about an 11.5 inch upper bout. If the Sweet 16 is the same, it should be a good fit. Let me know.

Is the H-357 always considered a Marvbird?
bolero replied to DetroitBlues's topic in Heritage Guitars
I thought about ordering an "H-357 Magnum" once How would you spec that out? I was thinking of gunmetal blue/grey paint, matching headstock, reflective metal pickguard a la Neil Young, vintage firebird spec pups -

This guitar plays with the lightest touch of any that I've tried. I love this thing. It's also light for a 150 at just 9 pounds. I installed the set of JS Moore humbuckers that I had. Phenomenal.
-
A 575 case will work just perfect.
-
beautiful, I like that "thick black" guitar enjoy it
-
No problem. It's kind of hard to tell in the picture.
-
Sorry about that.
-
This one is ebony.
-
I love Oxblood! enjoy that beautiful axe!
-
Heritage will probably sell you one
-
I only have 3. And two 575s…. I need a Sweet 16.
-
I received it today. It's as nice as you think it is. I'm not convinced that the pickups are original. They overdrive my tube amp at low volumes when I'm not using overdrive. I'll look at it later. I have a set of JS Moore humbuckers that are going in it.

Sweet 16 Case - Too Big?
HELPnoEMAILconfirmEVER replied to HELPnoEMAILconfirmEVER's topic in Heritage Guitars
Find me a Sweet 16 case and I will -
It’s probably an Eagle case. Sell it to me.
-
I bought a used Sweet 16 but the case seems too big. I have to add padding to keep the guitar from jostling around. Is that normal or maybe this case belongs to a different Heritage model. Anybody?

My understanding is the profit went to Marv. When he made the new neck for my 575 I made the check out to Marv not heritage. -

bolero replied to DetroitBlues's topic in Heritage Guitars
That is a pretty insane collection of H357's!! So what's the story on why Marv decided to start making them again?
