DetroitBlues Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Ladies and Gentlemen, This is an Historic Moment for Heritage Owners Club. There has been a discovery of an ultra rare Heritage that has never been under the ownership of Brentrocks. We must not take a moment of silence to remember such a colossal event. I think I heard a rip in the space time continuium... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smaj Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 The guitar belongs to Marty, the owner of Motor City Guitar here in Waterford Mi. . I've had it for a year or so witing on a price for it. He's had it for years and never plays it, so it came to my house for the proper love it deserves. Sorry Brent! I took it with me yesterday when I picked up my 357 from Marv, he said he wanted to see it. He told me it had J.P. Moats all over it. It was a grand day I'll never forget.

I've been to Motorcity several times.... Never knew he had that guitar... It looks like it has been played a lot considering the buckle rash on the back. My 140 is older and isn't like that.... But mine has chips and missing finish on the back, sides, and headstock though...... The headstock reminds me a lot of KBP's 450... I think that's another Moats build as it was an employee build not for the public... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smaj Posted February 11, 2012 Author Share Posted February 11, 2012 Well, made my pitch to Marty for the guitar. The cool thing was, he said he'd rather make a trade than sell it to me. I have a few different Gretsch's in mind. Said that could be a deal maybe, here's hoping so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
