    I think it's the same as G uses, most music stores should have a truss rod wrench that fits

    hey that is a pretty great idea! And I finally watched that PAF vid, it was good! I must have just landed on that earlier quote by chance, when I previewed it
  3. bolero
    haha!! yes, there's that too

    well, a humbucker is a single coil pickup on steroids... granted I didn't watch the whole vid, just happened to catch that bit. I'm sure he put a lot of work into it I'll check it out sometime I think I am aware of most of the PAF history though. I'm bringing a shovel to PSP so I can dig around where Pete Moreno dumped that truckload of them in the landfill back in the day

    Yep I know & realize that It sounded like the guy was reading a bad LLM/AI prompt that scourged the internet & "logically" strung that sentence together. And he read it wirth such conviction! influencers, I tell ya...

    This is a convoluted statement of logic: "The characterization that a great burst Les Paul sounds like a Telecaster on steroids is really talking about how a humbucking pickup succeeded in sounding like a quiet P90" WTF I've never heard anyone say a great burst Les Paul sounds like a Telecaster with P90's

    Got it. Autographed too, I think? It's great!

    I thought about ordering an "H-357 Magnum" once How would you spec that out? I was thinking of gunmetal blue/grey paint, matching headstock, reflective metal pickguard a la Neil Young, vintage firebird spec pups

    is the walnut one the 3rd in from the right? those are all very nice. If I had to pick 1 it would be a tough decision
  10. bolero
    Heritage will probably sell you one

    That is a pretty insane collection of H357's!! So what's the story on why Marv decided to start making them again?

    the old one I have has an all mahogany neck. Not sure if they were all built like that. the body dimensions are slightly different too. We had a thread about all tthis a long time ago, probably lost when the site went down interesting topic though. Some of the more fascinating guitars Heritage ever built.

    Well I guess the name has stuck I've always called them Heritage H357's. I'm not sure what ticked Jim off: it was at a PSP & maybe everyone else was fawning over them earlier. Jim is a master guitar builder too. maybe we need a "Jimbird"? I'm sure he's built a lot of Eagles I think the early H357's were all mahogany?

    I heard Marv explain 357 naming inspiration too I was strolling through the factory once, talking to Jim Duerloo about my H-357 I didn't call it a Marvbird, I just mentioned the 357 Marv built for me & how amazing it was... He said " THAT IS A HERITAGE GUITAR!" in a strong voice & walked away So I don't know who started calling them "Marvbirds" but it might rub some people the wrong way

  20. bolero
    haha, yes, Wolfetone pups are the bomb!!
  21. bolero
    yeah, I sold mine
  22. bolero
    I never liked those rotary switches either. That's a good option!

    I think he BOUGHT Bigsby, didn't he? 1966-1999 according to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bigsby_Electric_Guitars 1966 along with co owner John Huis here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_McCarty I think that reflection is just the inside edge of the bigsby arm

    beauty! you probably don't need that bar across where the old tailpiece was, since the B7 has a bar already. For a B3 or B6 without a roller bar. it might be useful though.
  25. bolero
    apparently if you duct tape the headstock, the gtr is worth more money to collectors
