    Very nice. Were you expecting anyone here to veto your purchase? Not very likely.

    Will (skin slammer) would jump on a Heritage accordion! Perhaps ABC will show old Lawrence Welk reruns in their 11:30 slot. At the 2012 PSP when I ordered my 147 black beauty Marv took me in a back room to choose a board of Korina for the body, I spied several "V" bodies left over from the Gibson days. Some time ago I posted a photo of them.

    Posted Thursday at 04:43 PM (edited) Like in my statement that you quoted, they are coming tomorrow. I do not have a week. And what does "Do Dah…" mean? Edited Thursday at 04:45 PM by MelodiusThunk` Was Gregg (Steiner) not I that started the "Do Dah" - so all I could relate to was cartoons from the 1950's - sorry just having fun with the flow.

    All the Do Dah Day..... Boomers know!

    You first consideration might be how the top was routed to fit the pickup rings and where the holes for the screws were placed. On second thought the first consideration might be the neck angle as the height of a humbucker with adjusting screws vs a p90 that has just two screws to attach to the top and no vertical play other than pole pieces just might be problematic.

    Yes it says it is artisan aged NOT custom Core so AA not CC Don't know about the scratch guard.
  11. Spectrum13
    They are coming out with a full acoustic flying V and line of banjos, or the bespoke program will be back. My guess.
  12. Spectrum13
    Beautiful! What P90's are they installing?

    Why not post the photos in color? 😀Post a report when you receive it please.

    Your parents were happy keeping you kids off the streets steeling hubcaps and worse Rich.

    Both the same weight and withing a few hundred dollars ($3500). You need to play them to decide or if cost is an issue buy the Murphy Lab at $4,300 off list and it's like getting a a Les Paul and an extra $1,000 in your pocket. No brainer!

    Love the Gotoh products, did you change the strings when you installed the M6s?
  17. Spectrum13
    Suggest using an additional thumb screw to lock it to the top to prevent more rocking that could gubber the threads. Rocking torque will mess up your intonation. Best solution, replace both screws with a Faber steel studs and bridge and lock it down tight.

    The black and white photo looks like mahogany "wings" and could be maple in the mix. What the old guard could not do is call it a firebird just as they never called H150 a Les Paul.
  19. Spectrum13
    I took it that they settled on the original asking price of $2700. Art of the deal!

    You just demonstrated the difference between a CPA and MBA (Me Being Amusing) =MBA

    Cause you can sell buttered bread for more that the ingredients alone. Take coffee: A bag of beans is $6 for 10 ounces. Add hot waters and you can sell it for $5 for 12 ounces of mostly water. If you can make 30 cups out of 10 oz of beans that's $150 from a $6 investment.

    I would prefer more of that curl and less of the dark edges on that burst as well. Don't know what we can't see under the finish though. Fantastic top!!!

    Gregg,

      Just cleaned and restrung my 575 from flat wound Ti Swings to round Ti BeBops 12.

    Pickups are ThroBak SLE 101MXV 

    Now I get the ghost hum/buzz only through the amp (changed cables/changed amps/change guitars) so it is only from this guitar. It's not a grounding issue or mechanical issue. Could be the same issue you had so I ask..

    If you had to do this over...  assume it is a potting issue... how would you proceed.

    Have not gone to my tech guy.

      Thanks for reminding me.

      Old Town is where Kip (Kidsmoke) and I met. He's the one who told me about Heritage Guitars. I've been taking classes there for years.
