Welcome to the HOC!
ok, my name is mike, i started playing guitar in around 72',in my early teens i was listening to jazz, solo and quartet stuff,..i spent a lot of years doing the full tilt boogie groove,a few years in oakland playing soul and blues and had a full tilt trio for a while known as the "point zero one band" recording that scene would have been like capturing lightning in a bottle..any how, i write or rather have written allot, now, i'm in the old bull stage,at 56 years old, i'm still an ass kicker, but i've slowed down and am diggin my jazz roots again, i knew billy bauer and jimmie raney,also howie collins,they all gave me good advice on style,and i've had great experiences with blues and soul musicians too..having the northern irish blood gives me a different take on things,and i dig that..i can rip a nation resonator to shreds, and bleed a 335 to death,i been breathin this thing for over four decades,i'm self taught, and i study things the way i see them..i'm always feeling it..i don't have any bullshit aspirations...i simply am and will remain an expressionist..i work with what i have..i been shining on my 575 lately and it looks like that's where i'll be for a good while..glad you're all here,,it sure is nice to have common denominators. mike ps "if it sounds good, then it is good"

Oh shit, as he said
I am a norwegian guy with a new item inhouse, a nice cherry 535. I have been hunting 335 for a a year or so and came over this one from 2004 with schaller pups (wich is surprisingly good sounding). I have tested several 335's and this one is in my opinion more my cup of tea. I also have a beauty of a epi les les paul ltd fujigen with rs kit, jensen caps, lollar imperial, aged faber, cherry burst. And an am strat 1996 with lollar blackface. The 535 completed (for now ) my collection. I play on Ampeg GVT 15 112 with greenback. Fav are blues/jazz and some classic rock.
I'll be back!

My name is Logan. I first caught the Heritage bug a few years ago when I was in the market for an es 335. I was taking guitar lessons with Vince Lewis at the time and he told me that he had a former student selling an h535. I went to the guy's house to check it out and bought it on the spot.
My 535 is pretty much the only electric I've played for the last 2 years and it seems like I fall in love with it again every couple months. I fantasize about owning another heritage with a bigsby and p90s, but for now my 535 is still killing it.
Here's a video of me playing it at a show in Baltimore recently. I was going to post a picture but then I thought, whats better than just seeing it? Seeing it and hearing it!
Also, heres a soundcloud playlist of some recording's I've done. Anything by my band Hemingway was played on the 535.

Any friend of Vince's is a friend of ours.... Welcome, Logan. Love that your first post is a vid of the 535 in action. Nicey nice! They are remarkable instruments! You playing through just the Excelsior, or the Orange as well. Rig info? And good job on the tune, everybody!

Hey, everyone! Thanks for the warm welcome.
I'm just using the excelsior for this set. I generally play a Kustom 72 Coupe, but it was in the shop.
With the Kustom I pretty much use the built in lead channel, which sounds great. Since I was borrowing the excelsior for this show I was using an East River Drive and Nano Big Muff.
I try to keep it fairly simple. DD-20 for Delay, Tap-a-whirl for tremolo, and a cry baby.

Ok, I'll bite. Sfax here, Doug in real life. Been an acoustic player for some years, decided before I got too old I'd better explore the electric side. I have a Gibson Faded Standard and use the MyLesPaul forum mostly for educational purposes. Heritage gets mentioned enough that I figured I'd explore their products. I've got some GAS for a non-solid body guitar, so here I am. It's clear Heritage makes beautiful guitars and just as soon as I decide on the model I'll have one. Thanks for the welcome.
Good to have you with us Doug. My first electric was a Heritage Millennium Std Ultra. Thought a the time I'd be playing more jazz stuff, but drifted into classic rock instead. I now have three Heritages on my wall & can't say enough good things about the Company or the product.
It can sometimes be hard to find them in stores. Are you near and dealers that stock Heritage? Or, maybe we can point you to some.
