HANGAR18 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I would like to think I had a little bit of head start on this. DSCN0577.JPGDSCN0587.JPG . Taken 31 days ago at Wolfe. Oh, that's a lot thinner than a 157. That's interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzy Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 I believe I will have one of those. Thank you, Heritage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum13 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Oh, that's a lot thinner than a 157. That's interesting. 1 5/8 so a little thinner. the belly cut in that shot looks thinner. Detroit Blues said the smaller 140's were close enough to the 150 and I agree. Guess if I waited some I could have had that banner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fretboard just looked lighter in the photo of you (?) holding it, so I didn't know if it was ebony or rosewood. What does that baby weigh?

bolero Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Spectrum which pickups did you end up using? I love the look of a staple P90 in the neck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum13 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Spectrum which pickups did you end up using?

Kuz Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Limited Edition??? This cracks me up. Every Heritage guitar is a limited edition!!! I know Wolfe has to market guitars, but after the first 40 are made is he saying that you can't custom order another one JUST like the first 40? Hell, you can custom order this guitar now from a different dealer!!!! (and it might even cost less....) It might not have the numbering, but I bet you can spec everything else. Heritage not going to deny an order for a guitar from another dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetroitBlues Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Since the 157 did not exist back in1985, the anniversary model should be a 140 or 147.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Since the 157 did not exist back in1985, the anniversary model should be a 140 or 147.... They're celebrating 30 years in business, not what they built 30 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HANGAR18 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that Gibson recently made a super thin version of their Les Paul Custom. (Around $1500.00 ball park new.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HRB853370 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 That would be 2025. Hoping they have a 30th anniversary model. I have already spec'd out my 50th anniversary H-595 archtop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
