TonyS Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi all, just got my first Heritage guitar and I love it. I found this forum so thought I'd sign up and say hello to youall. I'm in the UK and have been playing for about 25 years now. Anyway, here is my new baby.
skydog52 Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Welcome to the club Tony. You joined a good group of Heritage lovers. What color is that? Great color and works with all the hardware. Do you know what pickups are in it and the year? Enjoy.
tulk1 Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Nice 150! Amber? And pics right off. You're going to fit right in!
Kmenne Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Very nice guitar! Congrats, and have fun with it.
TonyS Posted February 27, 2011 Author Posted February 27, 2011 It was listed as trans faded cherry but I havent seen that listed as a colour on the Heritage web site. PUPs are Duncan 59's. Born in 2007 :-)
Kuz Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Great find and WELCOME!!! I love that trans-cherry color!!!
FredZepp Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Sweet guitar ! To me the pic looks like Vintage Orange Translucent (VO) , although maybe a bit more red? If you would... check the label in the control cavity and see what they wrote on the label. And.. more pics wouldn't be a bad thing either... it is a sharp one.

yoslate Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Welcome, Tony! Beautiful and distinctive 150!! Funky and classy, at the same time. Man, the UK ranks are swelling around here lately. We're going to have to institute "Tea Time" forum, if this keeps up.

We're going to have to institute "Tea Time" forum, if this keeps up. Tony, welcome! I love the way the knobs look against that gorgeous finish! Its so great to see folks going for the H150 instead of the G alternative!

I'm in the UK and have been playing for about 25 years now. Anyway, here is my new baby. Ah, I just picked up on the absence the pickguard. Was it removed or never installed to begin with? Can we see a photo of her backside Tony? Us HOC members are obsessed with backsides too. Ask Koula.
chico Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 welcome Tony, I'm gonna say Trans Cherry on that one...looks beautiful I have a H155 in Trans cherry, also in silver hardware, which I think looks great w/the red. this photo shows the original Schaller hdware which I had Ren change out at the factory since this pic. anyway, congrats and welcome! chico
mark555 Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi Tony, Welcome to the forum from Yorkshire, great to have another Englishman here with us. I think there are about five of us at the minute, may b six, but that's a guess. I love the 150, where did you find it, and how much (if you don't mind me asking)? They are pretty rare in the UK right now. Looking forward to reading more posts from you, and I would love to know how you got into Heritage guitars? As I said, a big welcome to you. What town in Berkshire?
bolero Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 wow, that's nice, don't think I've ever seen a red H150 congratulations!! & welcome to the club

H Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi Tony, welcome to the HOC from an Essex member. Nice 150 That looks like a High End Guitars stock photo to me, is that where you got it?
H Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Man, the UK ranks are swelling around here lately. We're going to have to institute "Tea Time" forum, if this keeps up. Hey Rob, as long as it's not in Boston...
mark555 Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Afternoon tea... Very civilised. Try Betty's tea rooms in York or Harrogate, nice scones and cream tea's. Forget your starbucks and lets have some culture around here.. Devonshire cream tea's are also extremely pleasant. 3pm, everything stops for tea, and I don't even drink it!
TonyS Posted February 27, 2011 Author Posted February 27, 2011 Hi Tony, welcome to the HOC from an Essex member. Nice 150 That looks like a High End Guitars stock photo to me, is that where you got it? Thanks for all the warm welcomes guys. I did get it from High End Guitars, last Thursday. I'm in Bracknell, Berkshire. I took the cover off and it says Faded Cherry in there are well as S-lovers pu's The pickguard was not on ther and I never actually received one with the guitar (would not have fitted it though) I will get some more photo's up too and take some of the back as well next time the sun decides to come out, it has been raining most of the day :-(
yoslate Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hey Rob, as long as it's not in Boston... Done that, haven't we? Not so amicable, as I recall. I'd be game for York, Mark. Been a while since I was last there.
bebove64 Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 It'a a beauty! With Seths?wow! Welcome to the forum from another european member!
DetroitBlues Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Beautiful guitar, congratulations! While I've been a member since last August, I finally became an owner on Friday. More to come on that one!
