TalismanRich Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 The binding on my H140 is about 1/16 of an inch. My 535 is slightly thicker than the 140. I think I remember Heritage buying 90 thousandths binding, but then after painting, all binding is hand scraped, so it will be somewhat thinner than that. You might lose 1/4 of that original .090. Of course the hand scraping won't be absolutely consistent, the thickness will vary depending on how much has to be removed to get a clean surface. I don't see anything unusual at all about that one.

Thanks for responding. I'm kinda stuoid and don't understand this tech stuff. Just wondered why the binding is so friggin' thick. Again, a meaningless question.They build quality guitars. I don't.
