I hope I can fit them all in...

Isn't it great that Heritage offers so many oustanding colors standard, and with the G word you don't get that many from the custom shop?

If have you to post more than one, vote for your favorite and post about your second, third, fourth, etc.

Mine's Almond Sunburst btw.  I also love Antique Natural, Dark Almond Sunburst, and Chestnut Sunburst to name a few.

I have to go with the ASB (now that I know that's what it's called).  But, I have to admit I haven't seen a 'bad' finish on a Heritage yet.

The only thing I don't like about the Vintage Sunburst is that they put a magenta colored stain on the back.  I wish that it was more of a brown color like on my Gibson LP tobacco sunburst standard instead.

I picked Dark Almond Sunburst, but then I'm biased toward that color!  ;D

 

The Almond Sunburst is nice also, along with Chestnut.

Antique Natural of course!  :)

 

Ain't nothing like a big beautiful archtop showing off all its gorgeous wood grain.

 

'H575 Custom'

 

Holy smokes, that's some beautiful grain!

Reminds me of Bimini Bay over off Anna Maria, except a little more blue.  And clearer.  And sandier. :D  Out of curiosity, does Heritage double-stain their figured woods like PRS does?  Or, are they just a one shot deal so you get all of the natural chatoyance?

Reminds me of Tom Anderson's Bora Bora Blue.

Geetings! My screen name Heritage4 is due to the fact that I own 4 of these great guitars! Purchased them all from our buddy Jay Wolfe (thanks Jay). I have a 555 with a burnt amber finish, my first Heritage and probably my favorite, hence the vote for that color. I also have a 535 goldtop with a Bigsby, a Prospect that has awesome tone in almond sunburst, and another 535 in vintage sunburst. The last 535 in VS I have some "issues" with. Plays great but has a really trebly sound even with the neck pick-up. The pick-ups in it are the SD Seth Lovers, I'm pulling those out and putting a Dimarzio Air Norton in the neck and a Dimarzio Mo' Joe in the bridge. I'll let you know the results. Meanwhile keep playing those Heritages! :D

Welcome to the Club, Heritage4!  I don't think we've seen pics of a 555 yet, you'll have to post some of yours!  That's weird about the trebly issues with your 535.  Last night I read a web page about some guy in Europe who bought a 575, but it wouldn't intonate or stay in tune.  He took it to three different luthiers before someone straightened it out.  The interesting thing was that he bought the guitar in NYC and it played great and without issue before he flew it back.

Whoa, Jay!  I'm getting sea-sick just looking at that trans blue ultra-Sweet 16! :o

  I have quite a few in different colors but my sunsetburst H-150CM is the favorite.  A very cool 3 color burst.

I'm wanting an H150 with the Lollar P90s. The two I have to chose from are either Chestnut Sunburst or Old Style Burst.  :-Decisions, decisions...

I'm really starting to dig the top on my blue H150.

 

Cleaning it with some good guitar polish certainly helped  ;)
