DanElectro Hodad MKIII Bass, and one more H357 on the stand on the far right!

Congrats on your new guitar. The Custom Core gold looks great. Enjoy!!!

wow that's a great looking guitar!

Mine are lightly doped and they break up gloriously. yes you should!

One of the first great guitars I ever played was a late sixties ES330. Those are GREAT guitars! Post a picture of that with your Heritage!That'll be a great gigging pair!!!

I am both an ES125 fan (I've had 4 of them, but only kept one single pickup version, because it's a beast, it's nicknamed the '69 Chevelle because of the rumble it makes) and a P90 fan in general. I think P90s are the sound of rock and roll! Here are all of my P90 guitars. The Heritage H525 P90 (Lollar P90s) 1965 Gibson ES125T (vintage original Gibson P90) 2024 USA Les Paul Special (Gibson P90s), 2010 Gibson Historic SG Special (Wolfetone Mean And Meaner P90s) 2024 Gibson Historic 1954 Les Paul Reissue (Gibson P90s) As for tubes, that is what the good lord intended for all electric guitars to be plugged into

My favorite speaker is the Weber 12A125A. It's a low wattage speaker that I use in three amps currently Mesa DC-2 (25 watts) Clark Beaufort Supreme (20 watts) TopHat Club Deluxe (20 watts) The speaker is rated at 30 watts, but sometimes I throw a lot of outboard gain pedals into these amps (Origin Effects Revival Drive and M/EQ driver, Analogman Sunface BC108 fuzz, Durham Sex Drive) so I try to listen carefully to see if I'm at that edge. Because as Rich says above, square waves (particularly fuzzes), can destroy speakers if pushed close to their ratings! That said, I WANT the speaker to distort as I think that is part of the rock and roll sound.

Congrats on your new guitar. Sounds like you found a good one! And I love blonds (guitars that is). I have a H535 with P90s and I love the way that it feels. And, I'm also a fan of Thomastik flats, I use them on my Gretsch DuoJet. Thomastik makes the best flats, and that's from experience, I've tried them all. They are just so slinky As everyone else has said, let's see some pics.

I'm a big Gotoh fan, I have there Luxury series 21:1 ratio 510 series on 4 of my Zemaitis guitars, and I have plenty of experience with the 381 series, they are definitely an upgrade to the stock tuners.

NIce looking color on that goldtop, and the new bridge looks WAY better!!! What tuners are you putting on it?

I wouldn't trust a thing that comes out of that's guys mouth. I can't understand why Heritage would build this guy a guitar for free. Just google up Vertex and rippoff and you will find out about his history... from Joe Bonnamassa... Hey Guys, I'm sorry to be chiming in so late but I must warn all you fellow gear nerds to stay away from Vertex effects and pedalboard services. Mason is not truthful nor is his work good or in most cases his own. He had me on his site without permission as a user and happy customer. I am/was neither happy nor do I use any of his products. My pedalboard sounded awful, took tons of gain away, and added a huge ground hum. It also cost $1400 and that was after I pitched a fit when the $2000 bill came to my tour manager all the while seeing unauthorized You Tube videos of my " new rig" a rig I never tried nor signed off on. Fortunately Dave Friedman at Rack Systems came in and saved the day for $400. All I wanted and asked for was to have some cables cut to size. I didn't want to waste Dave's time so I gave it to Mason. BIG MISTAKE.... I am very disturbed by his actions and have heard recently that he has been called out on some Wah Wah pedal stuff. Bad News Bear that cat is unfortunately. So... In closing... Just trying to keep my fellow guitar nerds from getting ripped off like I was. Caveat Emptor Joe Bonamassa.

I thought the wine red one with the stinger was pretty cool. I've always been a Les Paul Deluxe fan!

To me all Les Pauls and H150s need to be taken on a case by case basis. They all sound different, my two H-150s are light years apart in tone, and so are my 4 Les Pauls. If I had to sell all but one of them, I would keep my 1960 Reissue Les Paul, it just has the best tone for the type of music that I play along with a very comfortable neck. And coming in second and third in neck shapes for my guitars are my Heritages. They are both medium C with my darkburst being a tad bigger. My Les Paul reissue necks are a bit too big. As for quality I had fret issues and nut issues on both of my Heritages, and most pre band lab H150s I picked up around here had many of the same issues. But the cost of used H150s were so low they were an absolute bargain to someone like me who knows how to do fretwork. That said, since the Bandlab crew cleaned up the shop I'm seeing a much higher quality control on H150s. None that I have picked up have any fret/nut issues. I did see one H530 that had a badly placed bridge that couldn't be intonated, which was a heartbreaker because it belonged to my best friend and it sounded GREAT. The quality of the wood has consistently been good with Heritage on most every Heritage that I have picked up, all though many of the earlier sold bodies were pretty heavy. So do I think Heritage builds a better Les Paul? Re-read my first sentence
