brentrocks Posted January 18 Posted January 18 Picked this up yesterday This is a custom ordered, one off 2011 H137!!! I bought it from the original owner that custom ordered it from Marv and Jim and Vince. It’s a one piece Honduran Mahogany body and neck. The neck is a big 50s carve! Rosewood fretboard with pearl dots. Belly cut. Wrap tail bridge. Single humbucker. Grover tuners. And an old school Heritage case. This H137 was built by the original Heritage Crew. Marv, Bill, Jim, Ren and Vince. It’s in near mint condition. He didn’t play it very much. No fret wear. The neck sealed the deal for me. It is so rare to see a heritage from this era with a big 50s neck!!!! It feels great!! It weighs in at a skinny 7 lbs 6 ozs!! Plays and sounds great!! It has a killer rock tone!!!
TalismanRich Posted January 18 Posted January 18 It's just your basic rock 'n roll machine. So simple that even I could figure it out!!!

golferwave Posted January 19 Posted January 19 That's a nice one Brent and it sounds good too! From the good old days when you could ask them to do special orders, I miss those times!

rockabilly69 Posted January 19 Posted January 19 With that Zebra pickup, I think that guitar would look cool with a 5 ply pickguard like this... https://www.ebay.com/itm/295617504808
