...but it is it's solid body step cousin! Figured we could all use an extra pallet cleanse after seeing the bolt-on neck overseas thread.

My 535 is my favorite guitar.

I got together with a couple of friends again this afternoon to play some tunes. Mostly I've been taking my H140. Once I took my G&L ASAT. A couple of weeks ago, I took my G&L Legacy. I like the way they all play. They sound pretty darn good, although the guys commented that the Legacy sounded "thin". Yeah, it's a SSS, so it doesn't have the beef on the bottom. I haven't taken the 157 or Millenium, and while I took the 525 once as a backup, it never got out of the case. Today, I took my H535, the one with the new machine heads. After playing for almost 3 hours, I have to say that if I had to pick a favorite, that would be it. I don't know what it is about that guitar, but it sounds good, to me, it plays like a dream, it's got great upper fret access, and it's comfortable to hold for 3 hours (well 2 3/4 after taking a short bourbon break). It looks sexy as hell with that nice Faded Cherry finish. There's nothing that guitar can't do. I even did some finger picking on Helplessly Hoping! It's a winner!

Wow! Outstanding

😅

@kbp810...That has to be one of the most beautiful H157's ever made! Thanks for posting, Brian.

Are you positive that these are actually Heritage/bandlab products and not just ripoffs ?

Gorgeous and I am so glad you were able to keep that baby!

They just make the "Golden Age" Heritage more desirable.

Yes...but the right tool for the job, and if anybody understands that, you do, Daniel! I do love that Core!! But for an all-around-get-it-done Swiss Army Knife guitar, it's the 535.
