An update.... after letting things settle down, I've done a bit of setup work. A 1/4 turn tighter on the truss rod, and some adjusting on the bridge and it's playing nicely. 5/64 for the low E string, about a business card worth of relief around the 8th fret. It's much closer to my 535 now in feel. RE: the sound. I'm actually surprised it's darker/deeper sounding that the 525, even though they both are maple and have Lollar P90s. I brought the poles up on the G B and E of the neck pickup and took the low E down a bit. Sound is more balanced between strings now. It rings very well. And just like the 525, if you have the amp up a bit, you can get it to howl on a nice A or D string! Eternal sustain!

Hello everyone I am fortunate enough to own 3 Heritage guitars - H530, H137 and an H575. The H137 was purchased 5 years ago and the other 2 guitars were purchased last year. All 3 are great high quality guitars. The H137 is a real blues rock monster of a guitar. I get stoked every time a play it. For the most part I play clean (some reverb/delay) with a sight bit of OD when necessary. I use the H530 primarily for western swing blues (still learning). The H575 is for jazz (ie George Benson etc.). I gig about 2-3 times a year and have been playing guitar for many years (modest talent). For those of you who have a H530, I am curious to hear what types of music you play with it. I don't take great pics, these are from the dealer - they are pics of my guitars.
