You're welcome Pics are easier to deal with if you have a Photobucket (or similar) account. Put your pics into Photobucket and you'll find an option that lets you copy an IMG link. Paste that link into your text when you're creating a new HOC post and you're done I use an iPhone for most of my HOC browsing so I know it's not the same as using a PC Here's my two, sitting in an English garden, waiting for the sun

Hi Bobsky and welcome to the HOC In 1999, the stock pickups were Schaller Golden 50s, a low output, PAF-style humbucker. Stock tuners would have been nickel-finished Grover Rotamatics. However...... Heritage is essentially a custom shop, building a fair proportion of its output to specific, individual orders. To this end, you can find many variants within the individual model type (e.g. H-535). That might explain some of the hardware differences on yours. ASB is indeed Antique Sunburst. Congratulations on your first Heritage - there'll be more in your life Finally, we love pics. Did I mention that we live pics?

Hi Tobias, welcome to the HOC from another European member

Hi Alex, I have several relatives that live west of Varese near Lake Maggiore Heritage guitars are not common in the UK but there are two places that often have stock. One is High End Guitars in Nottingham, the other is Jam Guitars of Bristol but they don't have any at the moment. Most of the ones I see are on eBay. I hope you get your guitar soon

Hi Alex, welcome to the HOC You'll find many 'enablers' here, ready to help you make that final push to getting your first Heritage. And your second Heritage. Third... Where is 'here' for you? I haven't heard the term 'semi-electric' before.

Welcome to the HOC, Balladeer You've chosen probably the most versatile guitar that Heritage make - nice work! This won't be your last, be sure of that Pics please, we LOVE pics!

It's a small world..... ...but I wouldn't want to paint it

Are you near Ipswich, Teeky? I'm just a bit north of Colchester! BlueDiver is in Ipswich as far as I know, he certainly plays out there

Hi Alan, there are quite a few of us Brits on the forum as well as a scattering of others across Europe Welcome and well done on your brand choice

Hope things work out soon, Josh. You've been a good, consistent poster on the forum and we're waiting for you to return. Best wishes, Howard

JWALKER welcome back, FatFlatWound welcome in! We like pics. Did I mention that we LIKE pics?

Hey Duncan, welcome to the HOC I'm just down the A12 from you, a few miles north of Colchester

Very nice, Pete Can't go wrong with a VSB 150

Hi funkapus, welcome to the HOC Which models are you thinking about?

Welcome to the HOC Any pics?

That looks like a nice one, Alswin Almond Sunburst (ALSB) H-150P perhaps? Avatar pics should be 100 x 100 pixels. Look a little further back in this thread for tools to resize your pic if you're not sure how to do that. And a warm welcome to the HOC from a UK member

Welcome James, I'm also in the UK but double your age The 535 is one of Heritage's masterpieces; you have chosen well Of course, as is customary: pics or it never happened

That's gorgeous, Bob!

Hi Bob, welcome to the HOC We'd like to see some pics of that H-550 of yours! We all love the 357s, however I am not aware of any lefties in that model. I'm prepared to be contradicted though

Welcome to the HOC, sonar. Beautiful guitar and some excellent photography too!

Welcome Jredbone Nice 535, is that Old Style Sunburst? They're one of the favourites on the forum

Bruce, Scott and Steve - I'd like to give you a warm welcome to the HOC Pics always very welcome of your (intended) acquisitions A few of us in the UK, Steve (although you might not be able to say that after 2014 ). I'm in Essex, there's a couple in London and we have a core of five or so in the Yorkshire/Notts area.

That's a sweetie! Love those H tailpieces Welcome to the HOC.

Welcome to the HOC from another Englishman, Mike There are half a dozen or so of us on here as regular contributors, maybe the same again as lurkers and infrequent posters. Of course, in the interests of public decency, you should now let us see some pics of this beauty

Hi Daniel, bienvenue au HOC I'm a rosbif but we share the Heritage passion. It would be nice to see some pictures of your guitars
