Leaving old Schaller tailpiece and bridge on
ElNumero replied to MartyGrass's topic in Heritage Guitars
Absolutely Daniel. The only reason I swapped out the Schaller hardware on my 2001 150 with the Nashville style was just for appearance . I didn’t notice any difference in sound at all after. I could care less where it was made. -

Something to consider; the original Schaller hardware was actually manufactured in Germany. The ABR-1 and Nashville hardware that is used on Gibson‘s and probably Heritage too is all made in China. -
Eh?? I speak fluid Canadian eh? Used to cross the big Ambassador Bridge as a youth going to the *itty bars in that country frequently eh? Yah, I get in with the neighbors to the North quite well. Eh?

Snatch Dan, snatch!!

The guitar was PLEKED, buffed and setup before shipping. Looks as brand new as it did in 2016!

Hey Tim, just realized “our” former girl didn’t have F holes like the new girl I am getting. Does that change the model designation and do you know if the internal construction the same?
-
Yeah, that guy named Mike who is Mike Ortiz is the guy that brokered the deal with me. He’s a heck of a nice guy, but now it shocks me that that guitar sat around for a whole year after you first had interested in it!!

That was indeed her. But her replacement has an even prettier top IMO!!!

Thanks Tim. It immediately brought back memories of the one I acquired from you by trading my Neptune blue 575 to you. I just can’t remember what the exact finish was called of the one I acquired from you.

Really Danny? Gosh, maybe you can assist in digging up the thread on the forum. And your positive it’s the same one?

So while at PSP last Friday before the plant tours began, we all mull around in the Heritage guitar showroom looking at all the beautiful works of art hanging on the walls. Hanging in the corner all lonely by itself was a 155 Millennium in trans Wine with gold hardware. The Guitar was built in 2016 and apparently taken to a few trade shows and then put up in a case somewhere as it never got sold. Mike Ortiz found it in the back in a case and took it out hung it up in the showroom, and when I laid eyes on it, I knew it had to be mine. I worked out the details with Mike and he said they would go over the guitar and then ship it to me this week because I was driving back to Florida. Well, I received a communication from him this morning that the Guitar had a little bit of finish checking on the top that he was unaware of and so was I. That doesn’t bother me that much but it was able to gain an additional discount on the guitar and today went through a PLEKING job and a buffing, and he’s putting a new bridge and stop tail on it with a full set up. These guys at Heritage, both Pete Farmer and Mike Ortiz are the real deal and the fact that they went so far above and beyond for me on this guitar is a true testimonial. It’s things like this that keep me very loyal to the brand. I will post more pics soon as I receive it.

Lightweight drop-in Rotomatic replacement tuner
ElNumero replied to nuke's topic in Heritage Guitars
You consider 9 1/2 pounds a heavy guitar? Have you ever played Les Paul that was almost 11 pounds? Oh wait I forgot you’re kind of old. 😁 -
Did Mike sell his collection to Chicago music exchange? I know they do buy large collections.
