eljay Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 I made the final pmt for a new H build, today. Supposed to ship around Oct 8. It's one-of-a-kind, a full-hollow Prospect. During psp4, I asked Vince whether such could be built. He said "ask Jim Duerloo." I did and Mr. Duerloo said yes. Chestnut sunburst, split-block inlays, Seth Lovers Might be a long-ish 7 or so days until the brown truck pulls up . . . eljay
schundog Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Whoot! I can't wait to see the photos and hear a tone report, Larry! Congratulations!! Of course, who knows what you will end up with, my roomate, Millenium Maestro, kept feeding poor Jim beers that Friday night until he had to call his wife to come drive him home!! haha!

MartyGrass Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 There's a lot of potential in such builds. There is a noticeable difference in tone without a center block, partial or full, even in a small guitar. The Prospect is a comfortable size, too. I stated well more than a year ago that the Prospect is probably the most underappreciated Heritage. My fear about it is that the custom features would price it out of range of reach. If not, I'd order a pair, one with warmer woods and one with a Bigsby.
