bolero

the finishes look good. It makes sense they have a different line based on slimmer neck shape & weight relief. Nice to have coil tapping stock too. from: https://guitar.com/news/gear-news/heritage-guitars-standard-ii-collection-h-150/ "The launch continues Heritage’s 40th anniversary celebrations, with 2025 continuing to be a “landmark year” for the brand. So far, Heritage has also notably debuted the Custom Shop H-717 archtop and the Ascent Collection: a line of accessible instruments designed to bring Heritage’s craftsmanship to a wider audience." "So Far" hmm I wonder what else we are in store for in 2025?

very sad to hear condolences & RIP

beautiful. congratulations!

wow!!!

wow, look at that!! congrats

All joking aside, that is a masterpiece!

That has a Kahler whammy bar now

I heard from now on all hollowbodies will come with routed Kahler tremolo systems with those locking nut things on the headstock

-->At one of the PSP's, a large stash of old Banjo parts was spotted, and it's been a long-running joke that Heritage would build Banjos again They did build a few at one point Myself, I was hoping for some Accordions too

I guess we'll find out on the 25th. Otherwise its just wild speculation & banter

good info, thx!

At first I thought it might have been due to the recent tarrifs, but I guess not Who makes cases in the USA?

Maybe they are going back to using wood pickguards?

A flying V banjo would be pretty cool!

Those are gorgeous guitars

heh RJLII wanted a pic of the back too

ha, agree

Here's a shot of the back

@RJLII I'll send you a pic

Beauties both! I like stingers

yes beautiful guitars. Those cover a lot of ground. congrats!

ha. well you can blame me if you need a scapegoat

Yes. Let the good times roll!

les paulverizer that's a beautiful H150! nice top figuring too I agree every time I grab one of my Heritage's I get wowed by the quality, feel & sound of the instrument. Last night I had a similar epiphany with my H157: pulled it out & thought "damn, I need to play this more often!" It's a mahogany top that has aged enough that the woodgrain is now textured into the nitro lacquer. Or the reverse. Whatever, it looks great. This thread has me inspired me to pull out the H150
