brentrocks Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 The fella that bought Tom's Goldtop 140 asked me if i would take a trip down to Heritage and buy a tune-o-matic bridge and a Gotoh tailpiece for it, because he didn't like the Schaller hardware. So i went down there this morning. Ren greeted me at the door and i asked him if i could purchase a Nashville hardware kit for a H 140 and some cream pickup rings. He leaves the room and came back with all the goods! ;D I asked him how things were, he said everything was fine. Vince walked in moments after while i was chatting with Jack, as he was repairing a Black Millie. Vince said hi and had to rush off to grab a phone call. Soon after that Bill brought me a receipt. That's what i like about going down there...they are all a bunch of guys you can talk to and they are always willing to help. I hung out in the setup room w/ Pete and Charlie for an hour or so, watching them wire up a couple really sweet hollow bodies! It is amazing to watch them put the electronics in a hollow body, the precise moves and technique...not to put a scratch on it....working through the f-holes....that was fun to watch!!! ;D I finally felt that i was getting in the way so i left. Does anybody need anything form Heritage?....i love to go down there, pickup rings, bridge, tailpiece? ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnCovach Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Brent: I could use an ebony bridge base with a silver tune-o-matic bridge for my 575 (to replace the wooden one). Would you really go over there and get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Asbell Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 As the fella on whose behalf you made the trip, let me re-iterate my thanks, Brent! It's nice to know that there are places where pride in workmanship still are alive... and hopefully flourishing! Really looking forward to getting the goldtop H-140.

yoslate Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 i forgot to ask Rendal...sorry ...i will next time i go down, i promise ;D Wouldn't presume you'd run errands for me, Brent! Posted that as sort of a joke...sort of. But as you may recall me posting, I sure put the hard eye on all of those pics you posted from your first trip to Kalamazoo! ....Almondburst Super with P-90's...by the way...and a 1 3/4" fretboard...Almondburst...P-90's....a Super....
