how flexible is H concerning custom colors?

[eljay]

hello, everyone. is H open to doing special-request colors? a translucent forest green 530 really appeals to me. if one of H's paint suppliers makes a suitable color, shouldn't that be a straightforward application?

 

thanks for info and happy Thanksgiving to all! eljay

Best to call Heritage directly and ask. The rest is just speculation by us, only Heritage can give you your answer.

 

If I was to guess, I would say "yes" to a translucent forest green. But call to confirm.

They use Valspar paint. Grab some swatches at Lowes.

they will not do custom colors..

 

Nope won't do it unless you ask real nice like..

[big bob]

I've heard "never"... so don't ask!!

[big bob]

they won't do any custom work..

 

So DON'T ASK

 

The answer is no..

It seems like I've seen an H150 before that was along the lines of a darker trans green; I was actually considering something similar for a future custom order of my own... I was debating between that or natural, so I'd be interested to see how that 530 comes out (if you go for it that is!)

[big bob]

I repeat NO CUSTOM COLORS (unless you ask

There is a Transluscent Emerald Green at Mojo's Music in Illinois that might be the color you are looking for.

I am pretty sure that guitar is actually on sale too -- I can't remember what he was asking for it though.

I would tend to think, being that things are a little on the slow side, that they might be willing to do some experimenting....especially for a Hoc member wanting to do a custom order Heritage. But be willing to pay a little more for that.

thank you for help! bigbob was subtle in trying to let me down easy . . .

 

hfb's valspar suggestion led me to valspar's online color selector on which i spent many happy minutes comparing colours in the forest green group.

How about a 530 in the Psychodelic popsicle burst.. the blue/green/ yellow, now THAT would be custom...

 

But as BigBob says, you have to ask nicely.
