Interesting.... Wonder if it was really a Standard II?

Beautiful!

In all the years I've been with the HOC and PSP's, I can safely say I've never seen a H140 25th Anniversary. Either in person or on this forum. Other than the example for the catalog, I don't know if they actually made any. Back in the day, the ledgers were all handwritten notebooks, so the ability to look one up is nearly impossible. I remember looking at the catalog and wondering who'd pay for one of those when an H150 was just a tiny bit more.... Good luck with your search though. Glad we could help you out, the seller of the OP H150 didn't know what he had but priced it pretty high.

Very nice. I'm glad they brought back the 555 and 157. I like gold hardware, and the bound headstock just looks great.

Its still in my care.

Thank you, I'm really enjoying it!

Killer! All class that one is!

Dude this H137 is sick, I would absolutely kill for a single humbucker H137DC.

This was delivered a couple of weeks ago, but I've been too busy playing it to take a pic!

I can only speak about the one I bought. It might be an outlier. This is the Sweetwater pic before I bought it. My biggest complaint are the frets. they are wide and too short. I had it refretted with Jumbo SS.

I think those PRS wide fat necks are perfectly fine

Really??? Wow!!!!

Thank you DetroitBlues for the additional photos from the seller and Skydog53 for reaching out to Marv. It is a unique instrument, but I'll continue on my fourteen year search for the elusive H-140 25th Anniversary. I just missed one and have been feeling very emotional lately. Thanks again everyone.

The listing is for an Original Sunburst but the control plate indicates Vintage Wine Burst (VWB ?). Based on the solders, it was the end of the day and the iron should have been cleaned before the job.

That’s interesting

True. However, My main rig for bigger shows is a Synergy/Egnater MTS set up and I use 5 different tube preamps. It is a heavy mother for sure. The Quad Cortex can get reasonable models of all of those plus others as needed. I may not use 20 different amps at one gig but I might use a lot of those models over the course of a month. 20 years ago I was hired to do all of the guitar stuff on an album by a young sort of pop rock band....not really my cup of tea but I got paid. I used a Line 6 POD Pro XT for the whole album.....no external amp cabs or anything. I just carried a 4 space rack to the session. I ran across it the other day and was blown away by the sounds I got. And that was when this modeling stuff was fairly new. The volume swells were a modeled volume pedal. All FX, Delays, Verbs. etc even the wah solo at the end of the second tune was a modeled wah. And this stuff has only gotten a lot better in the 20 years since. I still love my tubes for sure but have no problem using models either. Like I have said in the past, I can no longer tell the difference between tubes and models on playback. I still feel a slight difference while playing them.

Nothing important

I do it occasionally. Lol i actually have 3 guitars in queue to be worked on now.

What’s up with the silver sharpie markings on the rear the headstock?

Customer!? Now you’re in the business of doing Guitar work for people for compensation? Interesting.!!!

What is interesting to me is the sloppy scribbling on the yellow tag - either the employee was drunk or hung over from the night before? You would think they would take a little more care in writing on a tag that would be on that guitar forever.

What happened to your 535 from 2016?

Realistically, you never use that many different varieties on a stage…

Maybe.....But the ability to have 20 different amp models in one package is pretty cool.
