MartyGrass Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 While the economies slip all over the world, the Dow and Bank of America tumble, and it appears more and more likely that those of us who had hoped to retire in the next decade or two will get hurt, it still feels good sitting down and plucking that H150. And it's less fattening than comfort food. There's something deeply satisfying about peaceful quality time with a Heritage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark555 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 yes, so true. I would love a 150 but really enjoy my 555, it is so comfortable to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyGrass Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 It's okay to find comfort in a 555 also. Choose your model! You fellas got quite a scuffle going on in London. It reminds me of the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halowords Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 "Comfort in Holding a Heritage." As opposed to selling, in this market in particular, eh? Man, that whole economy thing just blows. It does make me sort of value the smaller things, like picking up my guitar and playing, hanging out on-the-cheap with my wife & daughter in the back yard instead of going out, the fact I ordered a custom guitar and amp weeks before the economy took a radical nosedive, etc., etc. Small things.

RhoadsScholar Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I agree. It is a great escape from economic wows of our retirement funds and investments. With a mix of new and old Heritage guitars, I can enjoy the fruits of my labor and am satisfied at the end of the day that these fine instruments will hold/ appreciate in value over the long haul. Can't say that about my 401K or investment properties these days. THere was a great shirt at PSP this year. It said, "When in doubt, buy a guitar". I tend to agree.

tsp17 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 Last night at a jazz jam here in San Diego, a couple of other players asked to play my 575MH when it was their turn to hold down the guitar chair. The Heritage was the best sounding guitar in the room, regardless of who played it. Nothing came close. I couldn't help but feel a little jealousy pang as i watched others light up while they held and played it, but i was happy to give them a moment of tone heaven and comfort during this difficult time.

FredZepp Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I read the title of this as " Comfort Inn holding a Heritage ". I wasn't at the Comfort Inn, but still I'm interested. Never mind. And yes.... my Heritage beauties give me much joy and comfort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unikh550 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 People love the biting, clear tone of my H-550 with the Charlie Christian pickup. Enjoy having a guitar from a company that is not commonplace, and is distnctive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skydog52 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 The main reason I play guitar is to relax. I get one these fine Heritage guitars in my hands and all the worries of the day just fade away.

Blunote Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 The best things in life are free...at least that's what I tell my sweetie. And when she's not in the mood, my guitars always are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
