Gitfiddler Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Just for fun, and not to stir anything up, let's see one of your Heritage gits with one of its 'kissin cousins'.
kbp810 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Hmm... in that pic, the "cousin" on the right seems to be looking away awkwardly, almost as if it's sort of jealous of it's kin to the left... That's a great looking pair of git's
MartyGrass Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Don't ask me to pick a favorite. It's not possible. How do the two compare in tone? Any difference? How about weight? How about headstocks? (Kidding!)
golferwave Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Sorry Gbrand. The Heritage wins hands down for looks and quality. Just oozing with mojo.
RJLII Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Not the greatest photo, but here's my H-137 with three cousins. They all get along like family should.
DetroitBlues Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Got rid of my "cousin" last year in favor of a strat.
kbp810 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 My family tree doesn't fork (and of course #4 is sitting at the factory still)
111518 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 This was a pic of all my Kalamazoo guitars ... I've since added a LP Signature and a 140/147ish custom order.

(Kidding!) MG~ The 68 reissue Gibby is a bit heavier than the H157 by about half a pound and has a chunky neck and killer tone. (stock Classic 57's). But the 157's Seth's are chimey, rich and complex in all the good ways I like. And they both are classy cousins. As far as headstocks, here's a shot of them almost kissin!

DetroitBlues Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 One of these days, I want to get a 1976 LP Custom. Then I'll have a cousin to my H-140.
DetroitBlues Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Truley outstanding collection of fine instruments everyone. Does bring a question to mind. Does owning similiar guitars redundant from a tone perspective?

Does owning similiar guitars redundant from a tone perspective? Thank you Blues. In my case, with the 6 pictured guitars, from left to right, the pups are: Schaller Seth Lover SD 59 Classic 57 490R/498T P-90 So I would have to say no to that question.

I can understand the humbucker versus P-90's. Some of the others seem to be very subtle in difference. But, if I can use that excuse to buy more guitars, I'll use it every time!
tbonesullivan Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 I have two guitars that are identical except for the color and neck carve (two Hamer p-90 specials). I am still unable to decide what kind of pickups I want to put in one to make it less like the other, or whether I will just move one along.
FredZepp Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 I have some old pics that aren't great quality... but the guitars are.

FredZepp Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Ha... good example there, Brent. An unconventional and unexpected pair of cousins there.....
DavesNotHere Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 The Strat is a MIJ 1984 Squire. I've had it about 22 years. The Stat is a MIK 1986(The K does not stand for Korea, but I'm sure you know that! ). I've had it about 2 months.
DavesNotHere Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Mine are all brothers and sisters! It took me a second...but I got it.
