DonA Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I finally bought a Heritage H-150! I've wanted one since buying my H-535 last year. Like my H-535, this will replace a similar Gibson. It was dirty, and the nut needed a little attention, but It's all good now. What a nice guitar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonA Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 The weight of this guitar is just right for me- just under 9 pounds. The neck is a nice rounded shape and good size. The pickups are a tad hotter than I like- maybe because of the alnico 5 magnets, but I don't plan to change them. I changed the wiring to so called Gibson '50s wiring. I do that on every guitar- including my H-535. It works for me. I was surprised about the nut. The string height over the all of the frets was good, but the high E and B strings buzzed like a sitar. It turns out that there wasn't enough back angle it the slots towards the headstock. A few swipes of a nut file fixed that. I assume the guitar shipped that way.
