rockabilly69 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 That is a beautiful guitar. I've been looking for a good 535. I missed a beautiful red one a while back by thinking to long and not acting on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbonesullivan Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Once I found that the p/g and TRC screws were pristine, I knew I would have to be careful cleaning and re-installing everything. I got out my jeweler's screw driver set and found a phillips tip that fit perfectly. I backed all the screws into their holes until I felt them drop into their original threads. I also decided to leave the tuners alone. Again, no tool marks on the screws or signs that they have ever been removed. I just polished what I could and it looks great. Overall, this appears to be a completely original guitar with no mods or tinkering. Can't see any reason to change that. I wish more people knew about the "proper way" to put screws in. Backwards, then forwards. It's so easy to shred the threads on wood, and such a PITA to get the wood to hold again. I also wish more companies would use things like brass bushings for control cavity covers and direct mount pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royst Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Awesome! The tones that come from this guitar are unbelievable. You're going to love it! Congrats!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Enjoy it - I think the 535 is the flagship of Heritage guitars (no offense meant to their other models which I have had many - I just think the 535 is the perfect guitar). My 535 just exudes quality in every way - finish, playability, sound, vibe.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
