Oh wow! It does! They're definitely Sisters! Not too many of these made. Yours looks great!

SWEET!! Great picture! Thanks for posting. Happy Holidays!

NICE!! 👍 👍

Still have my 1993 H-475. Incredible guitar!

BEAUTIFUL!! Great score Brent! Really love this one

I agree. That being said- great looking guitars and to each their own. They're your guitars, so do whatever you feel like to make them right for you and how you like them. Personally, if I want something to be like a Gibson, I'll get a Gibson. A Heritage is a Heritage and I think it's cool that they have their own things- hardware, etc, that set them apart from Gibson. I've just never been big on swapping out anything, period. I had a big conversation with Warren Haynes about this and he's the same way. We both agreed: if he picks up a guitar and it's not doing it for him, he just goes for a different guitar- no thought about swapping pickups, etc. Just moves on. I've always been the same. I just have this weird feeling of "that's what the guitar was born with" - you either like it or you don't. But I know I'm in the minority. And again- that's just me- everyone should do what makes them happy if it's your guitar.

^^^ Yep- agree 100%.

Everyone has their opinion on this and I respect that. My opinion though, is that the Heritage name should not be on anything except a guitar that's coming right out of Kalamazoo, Michigan, USA. If they wanted to do a cheaper, more affordable line, similar to Epiphone or something along those lines, that's fine, but they should have called it something else and not had the Heritage name on it at all. Again, just my opinion. I just don't like to see any kind of name that has a rich history tarnished all for the sake of money. I guess I'm a dreamer. In 2024 that's pretty much how things roll. Again though, just my opinion...

What's the case like for this one? So many I've seen never have the original

Love these!! Very cool Brent!

Try this:

NICE one Brent! Congrats on a great find!

Exactly! I personally feel that way about life in general. Music, food, cars. It's all subjective. Nothing really sucks and nothing's really great. One person's garbage is another person's masterpiece.

True. I play music for a living and have for many years now. So I use my guitars for tools to make a living as well as collect, etc. For me personally, I just like keeping things stock. I had a big conversation with Warren Haynes about this a few years back and he agreed. He said he's not a big swapper of hardware either. If he grabs a guitar and it's not doing it for him, he just grabs a different one. He's not a big fan of swapping out pickups etc. But again, it's a personal thing. Nothing is really right or wrong. Some people like chocolate ice cream, some people don't. That doesn't really mean it's good or bad. It's just a personal opinion. And for me personally, I've never had a problem with tone or anything with Schaller hardware.

I know I'm in the minority as I always leave Schaller hardware on when that's what the guitar originally came with. I'm all about whatever works best for each individual player. Speaking for myself, I just like to keep guitars stock spec. All my old Heritage models I leave Schaller hardware on and have even gone back and swapped out replacements previous owners put on, and I put the proper period correct Schaller hardware back in place. I really don't understand the dislike for the roller bridge and quick change tailpiece. I think they work great and have never had a problem with either one. But again- to each their own. Do what makes you play the best.
