Good point! In my defense I was only 8 years old and there was no internet at the time.

I like it with the guard on. If it had a different horn, from the photos it could be an original 58 or 59. Stunning

You have mastered object permanence!

Growing up in Jersey all we had were Ampeg and Silvertons only our cars had fenders.Can't beat the OG bass amp.

Heritage's answer to the SG History Nice one Sir B

Just as Curly Howard says at the end of an episode. "come on in boys"

Very nice. Were you expecting anyone here to veto your purchase? Not very likely.

We would appreciate a tone and playability report!

New Ascent H717? Only 5 Hours to go

Will (skin slammer) would jump on a Heritage accordion! Perhaps ABC will show old Lawrence Welk reruns in their 11:30 slot. At the 2012 PSP when I ordered my 147 black beauty Marv took me in a back room to choose a board of Korina for the body, I spied several "V" bodies left over from the Gibson days. Some time ago I posted a photo of them.

Edited Thursday at 04:45 PM by MelodiusThunk` Was Gregg (Steiner) not I that started the "Do Dah" - so all I could relate to was cartoons from the 1950's - sorry just having fun with the flow.

All the Do Dah Day..... Boomers know!

You first consideration might be how the top was routed to fit the pickup rings and where the holes for the screws were placed. On second thought the first consideration might be the neck angle as the height of a humbucker with adjusting screws vs a p90 that has just two screws to attach to the top and no vertical play other than pole pieces just might be problematic.

Yes it says it is artisan aged NOT custom Core so AA not CC Don't know about the scratch guard.

They are coming out with a full acoustic flying V and line of banjos, or the bespoke program will be back. My guess.

Beautiful! What P90's are they installing?

Why not post the photos in color? 😀Post a report when you receive it please.

Your parents were happy keeping you kids off the streets steeling hubcaps and worse Rich.

Both the same weight and withing a few hundred dollars ($3500). You need to play them to decide or if cost is an issue buy the Murphy Lab at $4,300 off list and it's like getting a a Les Paul and an extra $1,000 in your pocket. No brainer!

Love the Gotoh products, did you change the strings when you installed the M6s?

Suggest using an additional thumb screw to lock it to the top to prevent more rocking that could gubber the threads. Rocking torque will mess up your intonation. Best solution, replace both screws with a Faber steel studs and bridge and lock it down tight.

The black and white photo looks like mahogany "wings" and could be maple in the mix. What the old guard could not do is call it a firebird just as they never called H150 a Les Paul.

I would prefer more of that curl and less of the dark edges on that burst as well. Don't know what we can't see under the finish though. Fantastic top!!!
