And what is heritage's usual radius?

Different from what?

Cool! Iowa City is just right down the road from me in Montana!

The Thalia people seem to think that most 12 strings have a 16" radius. True for Heritage or not?

I have one of the rare Heritage Prospect 12 strings (eat your hearts out!) I am wondering if ayone might know the fretboard radius. I have a Thalia 12 string fret pad on the capo but the E and A string are a little muted. I might be able to use a different radius fret pad but not sure what it would be. Did Heritage use the same radius on all of the guitars as a rule?

I think there is a 2023 H-530 here in our classifieds. If I needed one I would be all over that one!

I am kind of bummed with the bigger logo. I have to admitmy CC is cool but that logo is kind of like "I feel a little insecure about being the Heritage so.... HERITAGE!!!!!"

How old is this guy? Does he have any major health issues?

When I first joined this forum I remember a lot of guitars for sale. Pretty much every Heritage I ever coveted would come up on this site. Even obscure ones like my Leon Rhodes.H 576, or the Stats or H-162s seemed to show up here. Lately I have not seen much except some of the newer H-150s, 535s or 575s. Are people hanging on to the older 150s and such? is it my imagination? I do remember little Leroy selling a Marv bird a few months back but that is somewhat of an anomaly.

Thx! I'll check them out!

I finished up a session for some young guy yesterday. He is doing some video on his YouTube channel and it was a country/rock kind of thing. I used my old tele (that I painstakingly did a relic job on over a period of 54 years)for a couple of rhythm tracks. Today after reading all of this stuff about the H-137 I pulled mine out and I thought "Why the hell did I use a tele on the session?" Truth is I wanted it to sound "authentic." The H-137 would have fit in there much better....it has a tele kind of twang from the P90s but it has a little more depth and snarl. Next tele session I will use the H-137. I just have in my mind C&W = Tele and Roots rock/old R&B = H-137. Starting today, the 137 is staying out where I can see it and be reminded of it's versatility.

So they sound like P90s and they are quiet? Meaning quiet as a humbucker? I love my 137 but the Lollars are noisy. I may have to try the Mojotones.

How can you guys sell guitars that you love? It would be like selling a kid and then years later realizing that you miss them. "Why did I sell little Jimi? Now that I think about it, he was a pretty nice kid.....wish I hadn't....." To paraphrase one of the Freak Brothers "A guitar will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no guitars." I have never sold a guitar that I loved. Maybe that is why I have so many of them. I did have one of those old Stella guitars with cowboys painted on it. My brother and I stripped it as it did not look cool at the time. He still has it au natural. I wished we hadn't stripped it. Does that count?
