bolero

At first I thought it might have been due to the recent tarrifs, but I guess not Who makes cases in the USA?

Maybe they are going back to using wood pickguards?

A flying V banjo would be pretty cool!

Those are gorgeous guitars

heh RJLII wanted a pic of the back too

ha, agree

Here's a shot of the back

@RJLII I'll send you a pic

Beauties both! I like stingers

yes beautiful guitars. Those cover a lot of ground. congrats!

ha. well you can blame me if you need a scapegoat

Yes. Let the good times roll!

les paulverizer that's a beautiful H150! nice top figuring too I agree every time I grab one of my Heritage's I get wowed by the quality, feel & sound of the instrument. Last night I had a similar epiphany with my H157: pulled it out & thought "damn, I need to play this more often!" It's a mahogany top that has aged enough that the woodgrain is now textured into the nitro lacquer. Or the reverse. Whatever, it looks great. This thread has me inspired me to pull out the H150

That is really nice! congratulations

If I'd known that, I'd have offered them $200 for it

hey amazing! great article the truss rod history with his father Rem chamfering the nut was fascinating, I never knew about that! And it's funny: I never knew the development history of Bigby's, but after I got my first one I wondered why they didn't just drill holes in the roller bar. Now I know the answer: they did originally, but strings were breaking and Ren came up with the fix they still use. Thanks for writing/posting that. Here's to The Honorable Ren-aissance man!

That is bullshit customer service. I have SLE-101's in a H157 & they sound fantastic. So those must have been defective. I have imperials in another H150 & they sound fantastic too. Can't go wrong with either. Sounds like yours were wrnog though!

aha, interesting!

that is cool! what's the deal with the knobs in ch2 inputs? and congrats!

It's gotta be fun to buy a guitar at the factory, walk outta there with the newly acquired axe in hand what a souvenir!

https://www.triplett.com oops. wrong triplet.

Nice tripletts! Good comparison of the cutaway horn on Heritage & Gibson, too

are they the same weight? heavier tuners will affect sustain & sonics, weight makes a difference remember those weights they used to sell, people would attach to the headstock?

haha!! Congratulations!
