JohnCovach Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 My copy of the new Vintage Guitar (Feb 09) just arrived and the Heritage ad is on p. 159. It's a 1/2 page and color, with a mention of HOC. Very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pushover Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Very cool.. I think its a good add. If I didn't know Heritage, it makes me want to find out more... Gotta ask the obvoius question though.... What do WE get out of it?? Obviously we're "people who know and love the quality of Heritage", and they're sending people OUR way... So do we get kickbacks? Company stock? free strings? a complimentary tuning fork (remember them?) I'm kidding i don't want anything.. I'm happy having a (few) quality instruments, and I'm happy to enlighten the unwashed masses just because they NEED TO KNOW! Perhaps there are a few here (the founding members..) who deserve something for helping to promote Heritage, and I hope they get something..

yoslate Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Beautiful layout; superb copy! That's a really nice job, fellas. Congratulations to everyone on Parsons Street. Represents the company wonderfully! 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankS Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 Any info on the guitars themselves? Will they all have the same finish, pick-ups, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spectrum13 Posted December 15, 2008 Share Posted December 15, 2008 I'm expecting an artical now as the publishing business kinda works like that. It would be cool if HOC had a contest where we voted on a "custom" Heritage of the month which could be featured in a section of the VG add. I need a reason to buy a new guitar so If you have the imagination it might be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golferwave Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 It's been some time since Heritage advertised in any publication and this one is fantastic. Really points out what the company is about. Congratulations to all on Parsons Street and to all of us at the HOC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chico Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 I LOVE it. Bet it pisses Gibson off big time. They probably threaten to PULL their ad budged from VG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnCovach Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 There is no ad in the newest issue, which showed up in my mailbox this past week. The previous issue is still on the racks at Barnes and Noble though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soybean Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I'm happy that Heritage is advertising again, but i wish the ad was better. I mean; why nothing about the history and experience of the company? The layout looked amatuerish to me. These are some of the best guitars in the world and the ad looks like it was put together by the secretary's brother in law. Sorry to be so negative, but i love this company and want to see it do better. To be fair, Heritage has never had attractive print (catalogs, price lists, advertisements, etc). They have been successful because they make wonderful instruments. Compare this ad to anything from Taylor or PRS. Heritage is just as great a company and needs comparable advertising.
