This is the 150.  It is not blueburst it is of my own design.  Sorry boys you won't be buying this color.

It has a yellow middle with just enough blue to feather into a green.  An absolute masterpiece!!

I also added abalone dots in fret board,  abalone truss-rod cover, and inlay on head stock.

Thanks for the welcoming!!

are you saying if we were to order a guitar, we couldnt get that color?  it is really cool!!!!

 
Sorry guys, this was a one time deal .  I begged the old finish guy to do it for me before he left the shop.  So, I guess you can say it's a one of a kind Heritage.  (Even though they all are anyways!)

 
Hey buelahbones.

Your guitar looks great. Unique. I dont think Ive seen a finish like it before.

Awesome.. :)

 
Outta town yesterday, and I just caught up with this thread.  Someone who works at Heritage!  Fabulous!  Now we have some actual credibility!  Welcome, Katie.  I hope you won't allow the faint odor of testosterone to prevent you from posting once in a while.  Please let everyone at Parsons Street know how much their work means to us!  We revere what you all so obviously put your hearts and souls into.  Thanks!

hi there........ i'm new to the club.... and i'm a "wanna be" heritage owner.... i live in Honolulu and there are just not that many around...(maybe 6 on the whole island)..  i'm looking for a H150 in either honey burst or antique cherry ... anybody know of somebody who might wanna sell one to a new club member???????  thanks in advance      roy

 
Welcome to the HOC, Roy!

We REALLY want you to be able to add a Heritage to your signature list of cool gear.  ;D

Keep your eye on Ebay and Gbase and Craigslist for your H-150.  They seem to come onto the market in groups.

Good hunting! 8)

 
Greeting, everyone.  I will be a new H-157 owner when my guitar arrives tomorrow.  :headbang:

Since I don't have it yet, I obviously can't post pics, but here is the auction in question:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...N:IT&ih=008

Background:  basically, I'm a fusion/metal guy who has been playing primarily Jackson guitars for many years now.  But back when I started in the early '80s, I was a big fan of Les Pauls, and the sound of a screaming LPC has always been the 'sound in my head.'  My ideal lead guitar sound is somewhere between "Inner Mounting Flame" era John McLaughlin, late '70s Frank Zappa, Robert Fripp, Al DiMeola, and John Sykes of Whitesnake fame.  You'll notice lots of Les Paul Customs involved there.  ;D

I had gone away from 24.75" scale guitars, but getting an ESP Maverick recently reintroduced my love for guitars with that scale length (my carpal tunnels like it better, too), and the natural move was to get back to a Les Paul.  Problem.  My beloved late '70s - early '80s LPCs now sell for absolutely absurd prices even if they're beat to hell.  Folks, they were pumping those things off the assembly line like Chevrolets--why do they sell for $2,500+???  In earlier times, I had a '76 three-pickup LPC in natural finish that was a barnburner--a '77 just like it sold on eBay in the last couple of days for over $2,600, with plenty of wear and tear.  Stupid.  And the new Les Pauls?  The ones I've played never feel right to me, and I certainly don't have the dosh for one of those Historics, nor the desire to spend that much.

I've known about Heritage for a long time and was tempted to bring home a used H-150 I played years ago.  But with my Les Paul jones firmly back in place, I did some research--and it really seems like Heritage has got something going on.  So, I've pulled the trigger and eagerly await my new baby.  The thing I like about Heritage is that they are committed to making great guitars, period.  The price factor is nice, but I wouldn't have bought if they were nothing more than a "budget Gibson."  There are plenty of budget imitations available if one is willing to import something from a Japanese dealer.  I want the real deal.

Oh, and for the curious, here is my MySpace page with a whole bunch of audio (mostly recorded with my trusty 1990 Jackson Soloist Pro):  http://www.myspace.com/councilofone

And yes, I'll be posting pics and a full report soon...

 
When I bought my first heritage it was the same scenario. The dealer was unloading the rest of their Heritage guitars and they had a black beauty and the cherry bust. I bought the Cherry burst but that Black Beauty was sweet. It was a hard decision.

That's a nice looking guitar. congrats and welcome!

 
Pro Fusion~  Man, what a great looking Black Beauty!!

Let us know when the perpetual grin starts.  It happens to us all after the first few hours of playing a new Heritage.  ;D

 
My name is Dan (bukmdano) and I live in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky which located about five miles south of Cincinnati, Ohio.  I'm the proud owner of two H150's. A flame top done ine translucent amber with S/D antiquities and a quilt top down in almond burst with S/D Seth Lovers.  I'm really a lousy guitar player.  But I love sitting down in the living room and giving it a go anyway.  I'm primarily a piano and organ player. I've got a Mason & Hamlin studio grand and what else but a Hammond B-3 with Hammond and Leslie tone cabinets that I''ve been playing since I was 12 years old.  I'm 54 now.  I grew up listening to The Ventures and hence my desire from an early age to learn how to play the guitar.  But time and finances didn't permit it in my youth.  My parents had already spent a fortune (at least to my family) on the piano and organ.  So the chances of me learning then were pretty slim.  Thanks to Heritage and  Jay Wolfe I have acquired serious GAS (guitar acquisition syndrome) and have an H575 Classic on cutom order with Mr. Wolfe right now.  It's been eight months since Mr. Wolfe booked the order with Heritage (right after they opened back up) so I've been anxiously waiting for that email from Mr. Wolfe telling me that it has arrived.  Needless to say I can hardly wait.  I promised Jay Wolfe that I wouldn't be a nuisance and bug him about when it would be in my hot little hands but I was assured that they have started whittling on it by now and they are turning around their orders faster. 

I enjoy reading all the threads posted on the HOC.  I particulary liked the comment that Jay's inventory is AAA guitar porn.  I know it certainly is stimulation for me but in a innocent wholesome manner. 

Take it easy everybody and thanks for the opportunity for me to introduce myself.

Fusion-dude,

Most excellent axe.. Just like mine.. except that it's not mine of course.. I know you'll love it. I just put '59's on mine swapping out the original Schallers, so it's a good move to get it with 59's already in there. If you want to feel really really good about your new purchase. Play your new guitar some, then go down to your local guitar shop and try some of the g-word models and notice that they either (a) pale by comparison or ( B) cost several $k more..

Enjoy..

WELCOME DAN!!!

 
Hi Folks,

My name is Tom, I live in Largo Florida, and I just bought a Heritage 150 on Ebay last week and received it over the weekend. I am ecstatic, I have longed for one of these for a long time ever since seeing a gold top at a local blues jam here in Florida.. Mine is trans black. I don't have any pics yet, but here is a picture of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...N:IT&ih=006  

I hope to be a contributing member of this forum for a long time.

It has Black Back Pickups in it, I assume they are an add on, does anyone know??  I will put up a pic by the weekend.

Thanks Tom

BLACK AND TAN  FLAME...NICE

WELCOME TO THE HOC!!!

 
Daahamn*, people with Heritage guitars are popping out of the wood work like roaches today.

Where did you folks find out about this site? 

*southern spelling for Damn.  :wink:

Hi Fusion Dude! I like your style and especially the fact that you record and publish your stuff. I am sure you will enjoy that new Heritage and that in no time you will Fripp away! No tremolo on it though, so it won't cover all of your musical aspirations, but it will be nice to switch guitars and get inspired by the possibilities each of 'em give ya. (there are some older jacksonlike tremolo equipped devils in the Heritage collection like my H162, though)

And I'm looking forward to new recordings with the Heritage!
