big bob Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I was doing my daily ebay shop and dream morning ritual and came across this http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-Heritage-Eagle-Classic-Archtop-jazz-guitar-/200934241326?pt=Guitar&hash=item2ec89d342e It appears to be an eagle classic. This is where it gets strange, block inlays and a 1 PC mahogany neck? I was under the impression eagle classics had 5 PC maple necks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SofaPlayer Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I could never understand how one could try to sell such a nice guitar with such crappy pics. It really looks like a 1pc mahogany neck but the guy says its a 5pc maple neck. I would ask for better pictures if I were interested. The block inlays would be a custom order, nothing wrong with that. And I guess a 1pc mahogany neck is a possible custom feature, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SofaPlayer Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Fantastic guitar, awesome pictures! I clearly see a 5pc maple neck as the seller says it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetroitBlues Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 People ask for all sorts of unique specs on their Heritages, this doesn't surprise me. One of the great things about Heritage is the custom shop specs without the custom shop price tags... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big bob Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 I'm wondering if its an all hog eagle w spruce top and inlays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Looks like your kind of guitar, Lance. Catches my eye too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredZepp Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I see what you mean, Lance .. the back of the headstock pic doesn't show the layers of a 5 piece maple as you'd expect it would ... Perhaps abalone inlays? and although the pics are fuzzy... Is this a curly maple back... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobjr Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Bigbob, gotta stick up for you. Looks to me like, not just, mahogany neck, but mahogany back and sides as well. Isn't that also unusual for a Golden Eagle? New member, first post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Seacup Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Hey, this is family friendly forum, let's try and keep it clean Yeah, right? I opened the thread half afraid of finding outtakes from that porn Ron shot in his twenties! The other half was disappointment that it wasn't.

Isn't that also unusual for a Golden Eagle? New member, first post! Yes it's unusual for a GE, but the guitar is not a GE, it's an Eagle Classic. On a better note the guitar in question is this archtop...the owner-seller could play a bar of soap and it would sound good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
