Questions about the Millennium builds

Recommended Posts

It is well known that Heritage made many custom changes on its earlier instruments.  But I wonder what the usual builds for each Millie model was.

I've had a few Millennium 2000 Eagles.  They had carved maple tops and backs and maple necks.  Millennium DC has a carved top and what looks like a carved maple back.  The other Millenniums had mahogany backs like the H-150.

Is that correct?

Yes, and backs were not carved. 
 

Original models were H158 like you described, later versions were H155.

From 2002 Catalogue. Disclaimer: The Old Guard Customized these also.

I've got #22 of the 2000 Limited Edition.  Alas... it's not for sale.

This one surely floats my boat, and I would like it more with an H tailpiece, some black with silver reflector knobs, and all nickel hardware. I can wish :)

Daniel, my 'retirement-gift-to-me' Millie Y2K has some of your desired specs.
