SouthpawGuy Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Looks like Heritage were at the Summer NAMM show. Found this single photo on HC, of all places. Interesting that the 555 second from the right, back row, has a trapeze tailpiece. Could it be a fully hollow 555 I wonder ?
FredZepp Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I've been watching for pics... I found this one earlier.
SouthpawGuy Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 Also just noticed, duhhh ( having a lot of those lately ), the pickguard shapes are different on several of the hollows and semi hollows. Is this a new development or did I miss this while my brain has been in hibernation since last year ?
FredZepp Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Interesting that the 555 second from the right, back row, has a trapeze tailpiece. Could it be a fully hollow 555 I wonder ? Look at the depth in the last pic ...
SouthpawGuy Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 Look at the depth in the last pic ... My oh my ! That's gotta sound big ! That's got to be a semi hollow, with at least a floating centre block ?
GASguy Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I've been watching for pics... I found this one earlier. Is it my imagination, or does the guitar in the top row with the trapeze tail piece and 555 inlays have a thicker rim dimension than a 555?
blueox Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 With the variations shown there that are different from the Heritage catalog, the guitars look like they're from Wolfe-stock.
big bob Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Is it my imagination, or does the guitar in the top row with the trapeze tail piece and 555 inlays have a thicker rim dimension than a 555? Looks like a double cut eagle.. Me likey
barrymclark Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 There was a custom 555 once in a catalog that was abnormally deep like that. It was black and had a Bigsby installed.
skydog52 Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Whatever it is I likey! New model I hope. Could be a Wolfe custom order. The show is in Nashville.
Gitfiddler Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I'd like to take that fat-bodied 555 out to party!
DetroitBlues Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I love the 555 Transblack! I'd sell it all for that guitar!!!!
Jazzpunk Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I'd like to take that fat-bodied 555 out to party! That fat bodied 555 is just like a dream guitar I had posted about here on the HOC. I was wondering if they would build something like that! I think Jay owes me a little commission! Maybe the 555 Jazzpunk Edition? I am dying to try that bad boy out!
Jazzpunk Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Here's the thread! http://www.heritageo...-you-guys-think I'm thinking 20% off my custom order at the very least lol (hey, a guy can dream can't he?). Oh wait, Bird posted a pic of a 555 Custom that already fit the bill. Drats!

brentrocks Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 i talked to Vince today...he said that NAMM was very good, which i translate to....they got some orders.

They should of made a clone of KBP810's H-157 Custom... They'd placed a lot of orders for that one!
