brentrocks Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 This Heritage classic arrived at my door today. Its a 1991 Mark Slaughter H150 Custom. Most people think of the Slaughter Heritage as that funky shaped model they did during the same era. This is a STOUT H150 at 10.75 lbs. It has a skinny neck topped with a rosewood fretboard, decorated with MOP blocks!!! A 2 piece back supports a curly maple cap done up in a trans cherry finish. This Heritage sports all of it stock attributes....Schaller roller bridge/tailpiece, Schaller pickups, Grover tuners, Gibson style pickguard. The Schaller pickups sound good in some guitars, not so good in others.....this is one of the GOOD ones!!! This guitar has a great rock tone! The bridge pickup is very hot and aggressive! The neck pickup is very warm and thick. Reminds me a lot of HRWs. Its in pretty good shape considering its 14 yrs old. The worst blem is a good sized scratch on the back, through the finish. There are a few scratches not through the finish on the top and one deep ding by the tone knob. The frets are in great shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tulk1 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 So, even Slaughter got tired of the gumby shape? Still a rare bird, there, Mr. Brently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HANGAR18 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I overlooked the ad for this guitar because my brain stopped reading at Mark Slaughter and assumed it was that pointy teardrop looking body style. I'm glad you saw it before I did because I just bought a red guitar and I wouldn't want to wind up in the dog house for buying a second one. hahaha Very nice! Congrats!!

FredZepp Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Very cool 150.... a signature model with trans red and cream. And details like blocks and a stinger. I love the necks on these old ones. Your pics bring out that warm vintage look that it has... great grab, Brent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
