iim7v7im7 Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Hi, My name is Bob and I live in NJ. I have owned a Sweet 16 for 7 years now. I am an amateur (keep my day job!). I use this instrument to play mostly jazz chord melody (solo). I play it with a Polytone Mega-Brute (sometimes my tube amp). I also own a number of other guitars: Fender 51 Nocaster NOS, Valley Arts Larry Carlton Standard and a Martin M-38. I also own an Allen Accomplice (Fender Deluxe Reverb Clone) and a variety of pedals for blues playing with friends. Nice to Find the Site! :-) Bob Here they are: http://www.tdpri.com/telephoto/data/537/medium/Sweet_16_Front.jpg[/img] http://www.tdpri.com/telephoto/data/537/medium/LC_Std_Front.jpg[/img] http://www.tdpri.com/telephoto/data/520/medium/Nocaster_Front.jpg[/img]

cabinsan Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Hi Tim I'm a new member and the new owner of a H-147, my first Heritage guitar. Haven't recieved it yet and haven't been able to find out much about this guitar. Is this a special order guitar or do you know anything about this model? I play, teach, and build guitars and am proud to be on the Heritage team. Cheers Kevin

Altho' I'm sure a few others can give you some hands on reviews. Be sure to start a thread and post a pic of the H140 when you get it.

BrentRocks asked for a picture and I will post it as soon as I can figure out how to.

eddie_black Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Hello, I bought my first Heritage at Smashing Guitars in Asheville, NC just this week. It is a 1999 Black Beauty H157 that has seen some wear. I took her home to Atlanta, cleaned her up and put some new strings on her. She plays like a dream! And she's heavy - which I know a lot of you like. Funny things is, as I was leaving Asheville, I looked closer at the tag hanging from the case. It's from Maple Street Guitars - one of my favorite stores here in Atlanta, GA. I guess I'm bringing her home - or at least to one of the homes, she's seen. Funny world. I have more guitars than sense - as my wife will tell you - and I am proud to add this Black Beauty to the collection. She joins several Hamers, a couple of Warriors (older ones), a couple PRS's an old SG Custom and a couple of Ricks. Good company. I can't play 'em all every day, but I do manage to get to them all in rotation. I'm sure the H157 will get a lot of play in the next few weeks. I've been playing, buying and selling guitars for over 40 years. I play in a rock cover band now and a pickup jazz trio on occasion. Long ago, I wrote my own tunes and my band did all originals. Don't write much anymore, but I still play. I've been studying jazz lately to expand my horizons. I was glad to find the Heritage Owners Club and joined it today. I have questions, so I'll post them here later. In the meantime, Here's a pic of my Black Beauty. DSC_0020.jpg DSC_0020.jpg_thumb

The people here are definitely Heritage enthusiasts but not guitar biggots. Its a great group of people and you should have a great time here. You won't find a more knowledgable and helpful group of guitar people around.
brentrocks Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 VERY nice 157 Eddie!!! Welcome to the club!!! you are wise to post pics first...you get these if you dont... ;D :this_thread_is_useless_withou :this_thread_is_useless_withou
SouthpawGuy Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Hi Eddie and Welcome to the HOC, greetings also from Ireland. Nice lookin 157 you got there I notice also that you are a fellow GAS sufferer, you'll fit in great around here ;D
Dick Seacup Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Welcome to the Club! Great looking guitar, too!
bubbaheat Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Here are my 2 Heritage Guitars (along with a couple of others) Both were amazing deals. The Gold Top I picked up for $350 because of a scratch on the top. The 535 I picked up for $1000 with a hardshell case as a wedding present to me in 2000. Enjoy. axes.JPG axes.JPG_thumb
SouthpawGuy Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Hi bubba and Welcome to the HOC. Nice collection of axes you have there.
Dick Seacup Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Welcome to the Club, bubbaheat! I love the pinup on the strat-a-like. I was going to do this with my ASAT Classic (Photoshop mockup): But, I sold it (silly me!) before I had the chance.
Gitfiddler Posted August 6, 2008 Author Posted August 6, 2008 Welcome, Bubba Heat! Yessir, nice gits ya got. Is that a 'Prince Tele' by Hohner or Ibanez?
