PunkKitty Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Jay Wolfe posted that on FB yesterday. It's beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjsanders Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 for those who haven't enjoyed the choir of that neck pickup in solid mahogany...well, let me just say, "nuff said!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASguy Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I realize that there is most likely some significance to the fact that only "a total of 40 will be made", but do you know if this is the only 40th anniversary model planned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be 2025. Hoping they have a 30th anniversary model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolero Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 wow, that's exactly what i was thinking would be a good idea for 30th anniversary model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavesNotHere Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 That looks sweet, but I don't understand the mahogany body with a two piece mahogany cap. Perhaps it's a weight issue? It may be easier to find smaller pieces of "light" mahogany than one large piece of "light" mahogany.... Anyway, it's just too cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolero Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 actually I was talking to Marv a few weeks ago & was trying to convince him to make a std production 157 sorta like that...I wonder as far as I know, my 157 is the only one ( so far ) that's 100% mahogany? that is a beauty!! I want one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brentrocks Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 i'm guessing street price will be about $2599? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HANGAR18 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I must say that I don't really understand the reasoning behind this effort. There is a (so called) Heritage dealer right down the street from me who has around 30 (new old stock) Heritage guitars, which they've had for a very long time, and they can't sell them because nearly all of them have P90's in them.

Billgelder Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The #1 and #2 are going to Heritage employees. Jay has reserved #3 and #4. He is asking $2900 for ether one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpuma Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 What a difference does it make to have a 2 piece mahogany top instead of a one piece mahogany body? Just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSnowBlower Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 The spec sheet was put together late for NAMM. It should have read; solid hog construction. Fact is,some will have 1 piece tops,some 2 piece tops. Some may be 1 piece bodies. Prototype wasn't done in time for the show. There is a wait for the staple pick-up. The prototype is 2 piece . I love this guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpuma Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 So, imagining a one piece body, it essentially is a H137 with a carved top and a shower of bling... Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidsmoke Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 sweet. I must say that I don't really understand the reasoning behind this effort. There is a (so called) Heritage dealer right down the street from me who has around 30 (new old stock) Heritage guitars, which they've had for a very long time, and they can't sell them because nearly all of them have P90's in them. man does not buy on pickups alone. could be the platform as much or more than the P90's they carry, or the combination thereof, or the retailers general inability to inform the buying public. I seem to recall they're were more than a few triples in that lot, as well, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
