    Welcome all you guys... glad to see you enter the fray, Dale.

     

    Scott, if you click the more reply options button you should be able to select JPG files from your desktop to upload photos.

     

    :worthless:

     

    Got it. I see there is a 1.5 MB global limit per user, so I'll go back and reduce the size, and probably the format (to square). Thanks to all for the hints!

    Welcome aboard, Scott, Dale and Shmokiebaby!! (Great name, by the way!)

     

    Scott, my '93 GE also has a floating p'up set up. I was too scared to work on the electronics since it was my first full size archtop. The mounting underneath your pickguard might need adjustment. If so, and you are careful, you might be able to adjust it. However, I always recommend folks take these fine instruments to a pro to have work done.

     

     

    Yes, probably the best advice. Will do that and report back...

    Hi everybody,

     

    I purchased my first (only) Heritage a couple of months ago - an '88 Golden Eagle. It is an outstanding instrument! I'd like to find a nice 535 or 555, so if you have one that you're thinking of parting with feel free to drop me a line.

     

    I'd like to update my profile photo with shot of my archtop, but I keep getting errors when I try (from my Mac, if that makes any difference). It finds the image, spins for a few seconds, and comes back with some kind of "no can do" error. The image was reduced in quality/size so that it is now about 600 KB.

     

    Anyway, this is a great site with lots of knowledgable and supportive folks, so good on ya! Wish I was closer to MI - the annual event at Kalamazoo sounds like a gas.

     

    While I'm rambling on, if there are other GE owners out there with the single floating pickup model, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Mine came with the pickguard assembly removed, and I'm having trouble getting it to line up properly. I could take it to a shop, but it seems like it should be a simple little task to do!

     

    Finally, have any of you achtop owners out there added a tone pot to your stock rig? Once I hear how mine sounds plugged in (great, I'm sure), I may add one but would appreciate hearing experiences from others before I do.

     

    There ya have it. Cheers from Colorado!

     

    Scott
