    Well I just got off the phone with Ren Wall of Heritage Guitars. He's the person at Heritage that Jay Wolfe and myself have been talking to about the different things that I wanted on my guitar. I guess Ren is one of the answer men from Heritage. Anyway we finally got all the details finished and the order is made. So know I just have to wait for Jay to give me the full price of the guitar so I can pay half. They told me in the begining that it was a third up front and then pay in full when done. But I would rather pay half now ( I paid 600 to get things started) so I don't have such a large payment at the end. The guitar that looks a lot like the 339 to me was the Millinum DC. So I got it in Trans Black, All Gold hardware ( Even the Knobs),and the Three P-90's ( Center one Reversed). Three volume and one tone ( Like on the Zephyr Blues Deluxe). I know that the Zephyr didn't do very well but I love mine and The sound of a 339 with the pickup set up should make this one tight sounding Guitar. I asked Ren for pictures for my Blogs as the guitar is being built so Y'all can share it with me.

    Me, Myself, And I.

    By StevenTari,

    I started playing Guitar in Kearn's Utah. In 1972 I was in Kearn's High School And my best Friend Joey Stay's father had a music store that he named after his oldest son's band Strawberry Orange. My father at the time bought me used equipment because he didn't think we would stand by it very long.The first guitar was a Kalamazoo KG-2A and amp was a Kalamazoo 2 or 3 I can't quite remember. Between Joey and I we played at his church for the first time playing "Proud Mary".WE practiced together and had his brother teach me for a short time at his fathers store. I had to move to Miami after that.
    I tried to play with some bands after that when I moved to Virginia. But until I reached Graduation.
    I played in a band called the Virginians. But that was to area bars.
    I have always until lately only bought Gibson Family Guitars. My favorite is the Zephyr Blues Deluxe which I bought brand new in 1998.I have a Gibson SG Robot, ES-339, Epiphone PR-4E,and Hummingbird. I lost my other guitars a DOT from 65, and 12 string Hummingbird at a garden party. They stole the guitars but left the cases.
    I couldn't get another Hummingbird 12 string like I was looking for. So at the time another Forum I was looking at was bringing in a new guitar from France. The LAG guitar. So I decided to get my 12 string from them.
    I've got to the point why pay for a guitar that other people have and make a guitar that I want built for me my way.
    I was going to get a Gibson built my way from Gibson but I found it would be over a year ( Plus have to deal with someone out side Gibson to get it built. So I went to the people I talk to on the Gibson Forum. Automaticaly the responce was to get it built by an outside guitar builder. I looked at most of the Guitar makers the guy's were telling me to look at but most only made Solid Body guitars.
    I remembered about reading a bit of when Gibson had left Kalamazoo and some of their people had stayed behind and started Heritage Guitar. So I decided to check to see if they could build my new guitar. I hooked up with Jay Wolfe of Jay Wolfe Guitars. He is going to help me get my New guitar built. So here we go.
