Welcome to all the new folks who have joined us. Alberto, that's a nice looking 147. Its definitely a rare item. PunkKitty, If you can make it to Kalamazoo this summer, I'm sure there will be several Milleniums for you to try out. We're not very shy about showing off our guitars! LeftAxeMan, as you've discovered, you're not alone on this board. We've got a bunch of leftys. Heritage is good about providing for everyone. Have fun and join in the conversations.

Welcome to the HOC, Sancho and Baimo. You should enjoy that Sweet 16, Baimo. They're very nice instruments. The archtop is one guitar that is missing from my "stable". I make do with my semihollow 535. I'm sure I'll find one eventually, though.

Welcome aboard Endre. Very nice looking 150! Be sure and point us to any video or audio posts of the band. We enjoy hearing what people are doing out there with their music.

Welcome Mike. Sorry to hear the basement flood story. I had similar experience. My 157 was sitting on a stand with water up to the bridge. After drying out for about 2 months, you could see the water marks under the finish and the cracks in the lacquer. A little trip to Kalamazoo took care of everything however.

Ahhh.... another wayward soul finds his way home! There are a bunch of us in that boat. I played from the time I was 12 until about 25. Marriage, job, kids, house payments etc put the guitar in the basement for years. I got it out and started plunking around almost 25years later. My H157 was the first guitar I bought for myself since about 1975, it was my 50th birthday present to myself! I've never looked back. Now I try to play SOMETHING every day, even if its just a quick zip up the fretboard. Welcome Clump!

Welcome aboard Monk. With your background, I have little doubt you'll appreciate the Heritage. Make sure to post pics when you get it an any sound clips are always appreciated.

Mark, I can understand the logic of wanting a singer to come with a PA, but I would jump at the chance to grab a good singer regardless of the PA system. You can always buy PA equipment, but finding a great voice is so much tougher. Good luck on your search.

Welcome aboard Mick, I'm glad Vince coaxed you to join us. I can testify that Mick and the folks at Steilberg are GOOD PEOPLE! My H157 and Taylor both came from there.

Welcome, Guitararmy. Looks like you've got a nice collection there. Be sure to post some pics. We'd love to see 'em!

Welcome to all the new folks on the block! Nothing wrong with Cherry Red, as long as you get the first number right!

Welcome Mark and Doug. Don't you just love those semi hollows? They just sound soooo sweet!
