GASguy Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 I started out by ordering a new 335 that I returned for fit and finish issues; just not acceptable for the price. After that, I always wanted a 335 style guitar. By chance I came across this used 535 on a website of a shop I had purchased from in the past. I fell in love with this guitar for the versatility of the tapped HRWs and their tone; eventually I came to understand what a great value Heritage guitars are, and what great instruments they are when you look at their competition. About a year later, this eventually led me to the HOC, which in turn led me to this: And now to bring this tale up to date, here are my Heritage guitars. Exciting to think of what the future will hold!
Kuz Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 You waited a "WHOLE" year to buy your next Heritage???? MAN, you have willpower!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, incredible guitars, by the way!!!!!!!!!!
DetroitBlues Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Great combo of guitars. What amps are you running them through?
GASguy Posted April 2, 2011 Author Posted April 2, 2011 Currently I have a Genz-Benz Black Pearl 1x12, a ValveTrain Trenton, and a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. I have to say I have been giving envious looks at your new KBP810 Reverb Deluxe.
BobN Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Looks like a 555 with those inlays and the binding on the F holes and pick guard. Sharp looking pair!
skydog52 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 You have the right handle for this sight. You'll be gassing for a long time. Beautiful set and nice start
tulk1 Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 That's a nice looking 555. And that 150 isn't too shabby, neither.
Steiner Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Yea Baby! With a pair like that you should be able to capture a cunning array of stunts!!! As others have said, how did you ever wait an entire year? You've acquired the perfect handle for this group. Enjoy .
schundog Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Beautiful tops on those; the reflector knobs on the 150 really seem to accentuate the top. Welcome to the HOC!
FredZepp Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Those are both excellent representatives of the Parsons St. craftsmanship. And as much as I'm a 150 player.. that 555 looks to be able to rock.
Assumer Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Both great looking guitars. Congrats. When is the next one comming?
Hfan Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Two beautiful guitars. Between them you can cover a lot. From your location info, it sounds like we may be neighbors.
Dasherdave Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 Congrats on two very stunning guitars!! That H-150 is just KILLER....and the 555 is a true vintage looker!! I'm jealous ahaha
Kmenne Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 nice guitars! something w / P90s and you would be about set.
kidsmoke Posted April 3, 2011 Posted April 3, 2011 I completely understand your predicament, GASguy. Having joined this forum a month ago, and taken possession of my first Heritage, a 535, a little over a week ago, I now find myself seriously contemplating a 150 for sale nearby.... 5 weeks ago, I had no idea i needed any new guitars whatsoever. I now feel completely helpless.
