Looking at the soldering, it may have pickups swapped.

Asked the seller a couple questions to help the OP out…

Anyone spot something interesting?

Its rather unique for sure.  Reminds me of my H535 from 2016.

What happened to your 535 from 2016?

What is interesting to me is the sloppy scribbling on the yellow tag - either the employee was drunk or hung over from the night before? You would think they would take a little more care in writing on a tag that would be on that guitar forever.

The listing is for an Original Sunburst but the control plate indicates Vintage Wine Burst (VWB ?). Based on the solders, it was the end of the day and the iron should have been cleaned before the job.

Thank you  DetroitBlues for the additional photos from the seller and Skydog53 for reaching out to Marv. It is a unique instrument, but I'll continue on my fourteen year search for the elusive H-140 25th Anniversary. I just missed one and have been feeling very emotional lately. Thanks again everyone.

In all the years I've been with the HOC and PSP's, I can safely say I've never seen a H140 25th Anniversary.  Either in person or on this forum.  Other than the example for the catalog, I don't know if they actually made any.  Back in the day, the ledgers were all handwritten notebooks, so the ability to look one up is nearly impossible.  I remember looking at the catalog and wondering who'd pay for one of those when an H150 was just a tiny bit more....

Good luck with your search though.  Glad we could help you out, the seller of the OP H150 didn't know what he had but priced it pretty high.

I found the pics I took at the factory. It was PSP IX (2016?)

It's a different  head stock than the one on Reverb. It looks better executed.

The Reverb 150 is located in Muscle Shoals which is about 30 minutes from Moulton, JP's home town, so it's possible JP received it after his retirement and his family let it go. The shop that has it for sale also had a Terminator for sale a couple of years ago.

I picked up a HFT-480 from a guy in Moulton, about an hour from me, a while back who told me his father was friends with JP and he got the guitar from him.

It's not inconceivable that head stocks were in in the works before JP left.

Anyway, a bit of a caffeine induce ramble.

Here's the shots from PSP

Can't really see the finish but it's the best angle I have.

Ah! The caffeine just hit the last two working brain cells. The one I posted was a commemorative model to commemorate , funny how that works, the passing of the Heritage torch from the founders to the new owners.

Jay Wolfe may be able to find you one if it exists.

Saw one at a PSP can't remember which one but I should appear in the group photo.  Could have been 2012 or 2013. That was the reason I asked Marv to build my 147
