kbp810 Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 My wife was playing around with her camera and happened to capture two mighty fine examples of the Heritage Headstock... So I thought, why not show 'em off!
Steiner Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Looks like Mrs. KBP810 is becoming adept at that camera thing. You have two fine examples of status symbols. How's that acoustic treating you? I'm still smitten with that acoustic's TRC. Thanks for the porn!
Guest HRB853370 Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Obviously, she has good taste in head (stocks)!
High Flying Bird Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Check out the blurry background. That's art! They call the ability lens to do this, "Bokah." She has good bokah on these shots. Did you get her any new glass to go with the new camera? What camera did you buy her?
schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Here's a chubby one.... My 525. http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz327/schundog/HeritageDowntown/HeritageDowntown064.jpg[/img]"]http://
schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 And an old 1988 bound one (H-170) http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz327/schundog/abbyguitar0111119.jpg[/img]"]http://
schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 A dusty 155! http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz327/schundog/0710176-1.jpg[/img]"]http://
schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 And a beat to $hit 535 headstock!! (not by me! This one came to me a little beat up, but I love her!) http://i840.photobucket.com/albums/zz327/schundog/April2011019.jpg[/img]"]http://

Did you get her any new glass to go with the new camera? What camera did you buy her? It's the Canon 60D, the lens on these shots was the 50mm f/1.4 (set to 2.2 on these) - in the market for a macro lens at the moment, thinking the 100mm?

The 50 1.4 is one of the best lenses Canon makes. For the money one could argue.... I have both the 50 1.4 and the 100 2.8. If you don't want to spend $1300 - $1600 on a lens you couldn't do better. On Fred Miranda's site in the early 2000s we agreed that these two should have been given the red stripe of the pro series lenses. The 100mm Macro is a fantastic portrait lens. People if you love your wife, get her good lenses.
brentrocks Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 As Fred once said.... "The Heritage headstock IS a stutus symbol" my contribution....
schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Brent, all good shots, but those 2 20th anniversary models side my side against the tree is just stunning! Larry, I've never seen an inlaid logo without headstock binding before; that's cool and unique. Did you order it that way?

schundog Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 KBP and Kuz, that 5 ply headstock binding is THE STUFF! Awesome looking, even makes regularly bound Heritage headstocks look pedestrian by comparison. It also just hit me that the TRC on Brian's acoustic is in the shape of the headstock itself! Very cool; did that come from the factory like that?

How's that acoustic treating you? I'm still smitten with that acoustic's TRC. Thanks for the porn! It has treated me quite well, quite well indeed! For anyone that didn't notice... take another look at the TRC on the H450. its actually a small trans black piece of flamed maple, bound, and in the shape of the Heritage Headstock
kbp810 Posted September 22, 2011 Author Posted September 22, 2011 yes! What a great idea, inlaid but without binding is a really cool look!
