I found this video on YouTube and thought it might be a good topic for this forum. This is Alvin Lee (10 Years After) playing a 535:

 

 

If anyone else has video, still photos or stories about famous musicians playing the Heritage line please share!

OK, he's holding the Super 400 here, but the Heritage is in the background and Wolf Marshall is playing his Heritage KB

Alvin Lee can't take his 335 on the road anymore. I understand that insurance is too expensive with its value at over $100K. At least that's the legend.

What are those pickups?

 

P.J.Marx in the neck and an EMG 81 in the bridge

 

Supposedly Moore's standard set up in those days.

 

Here's another rippin' jam from that show.

Are there any rock or blues stars out there who play Heritage guitars? (If not, maybe I should be the first! LOL)

 

Sorry... I beat you to it!

Interesting clip on Detroit Blues - nice shot of Johnnie playing some Heritage blues at 2:10.

Its funny you would say that. I just read an article by Gibson that shows Gary's album covers, one of which he's sporting a Heritage guitar on the cover....

Not famous or anything, but I play out a lot in the Bloomington, IN (IU) area. A lot of people ask me about the guitar, especially since I put the Charlie Christian pickup (from a '79 Gibson ES-175CC) on the H550, which I had built in '98 with no pickups, inlay, or knobs. Would not be surprised if a few of them order something from Heritage in the next few years.- Charles Bevell

There aren't many female jazz guitarists in the UK, but one of them, Deirdre Cartwright, sometimes uses a Super Eagle (her main guitars are a '61 Epiphone Casino and a '61 Strat). Her latest project is "Emily Remembered", where (along with fellow guitarist Kathy Dyson) she explores the legacy of Emily Remler. (Rather a small picture, I'm afraid.)

Another great guitarist who is somewhat famous in blues circles is Shane Dwight. He plays a H-157 custom with P-90's. Really great blues guitarist and singer...
