brentrocks Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 he wants me to call him tomorrow....he has the quote on my thinline 575 semi hollow done. i'm almost afraid to know :undecided: it could be way too much and my dream may be shattered but i will still have to contact the dealer and see how much of a discount he will give me, he is a super small dealer, he does really low volume, so that could work to my advantage or not? it is the same guy i bought the stat deluxe from, so i am a return customer....and we had a nice long talk, we hit it off pretty good...a really nice older gentleman. i think i only have to pay half down to pl ace the order, it wont be done for a year.....we'll se how it goes? i must not forget to tell Ren tomorrow that i want a bigsby on it too...that should only add another $150?
brentrocks Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Well, Rendal didnt want to discuss my guitar..... He wanted to know if i could get some HOC shirts made up for NAMM? ;D Hopefully the doc will clear me to drive Thurs!
fxdx99 Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 smile - so it was a good news/bad news call, eh? That's cool that he wanted shirts for NAMM - might see a spike of membership around here (not that it's not growing quickly/steadily as it is). Hope you're recovery is going well, Brent!!
Gitfiddler Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Brent, first of all, how cool is it when one of the owners of Heritage calls YOU for something!? Secondly, is the url for the HOC included on the T-Shirts?
yoslate Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 is the url for the HOC included on the T-Shirts? Brilliant, 'fiddler! I just came off of the thread in which folks were ruminating about Heritage's presence on Facebook or in Vintage guitar or some other place which might increase Parsons Street's exposure in some sort of meaningful (but not out-of-character) way. I don't think their website will be updated before the next millenium, if past is precedent, so.... I think Gitfiddler is on it here! You listening, Brent?
tulk1 Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 You get emails, and I can't even get them to answer the phone. Not jealous at all, no .. not at all .... not really .... at .... all. :angel:
High Flying Bird Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 You get emails, and I can't even get them to answer the phone. Not jealous at all, no .. not at all .... not really .... at .... all. :angel: Tulk, from what Ren told me one day, thse guys work a full day before noon. You have to call early.
brentrocks Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 i'm here...i'm still having big trouble logging on the URL is not on the shirt, but i think people will figure it out. when the shirt was made, we had no idea it was going to see the places its headed for...the guys down to the shop really appreciate us and what we do for the Heritage name....if they want to wear our shirts at NAMM, that says a lot!!! i still am anxious about my quote though
Thundersteel Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 i still am anxious about my quote though Maybe when you pick up your guitar, they'll throw in a FREE T-shirt! Well, at least Jay does!
yoslate Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Tulk, from what Ren told me one day, thse guys work a full day before noon. You have to call early. Me, too, tulk! Ren suggested that calling perhaps even a little before eight, their time, might work to your advantage. I gathered that Bill Paige mans the phone pretty early on Wednesday mornings. Good luck. I may have to call this week, as my Super should have been shipped by now, but I've heard nothing from either end. I continue to keep the faith that the boys'll do me right!
High Flying Bird Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 he wants me to call him tomorrow....he has the quote on my thinline 575 semi hollow done. Brent, check this one out. That 575 sounds sweet. I had a bad Jones for this thinline a few months ago. http://www.gbase.com/Stores/Gear/GearDetai...spx?Item=858929
Gitfiddler Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 That red 550 Thin Custom had me staring with lust in my heart for her too. Too bad it has a Bigsby...or I'd be in big trouble!! 8)
brentrocks Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 if i can follow through w/ the order, mine will have a Bigs
brentrocks Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Tulk, from what Ren told me one day, thse guys work a full day before noon. You have to call early. correct, things start to loosen up after lunch You get emails, and I can't even get them to answer the phone. Not jealous at all, no .. not at all .... not really .... at .... all. :angel: since i started in the HOC, began helping with the Pilgriage, and started making visits to Heritage, my life as a guitar player has become complete. i enjoy every minute talking to those guys...i do feel very privledged. Brent, first of all, how cool is it when one of the owners of Heritage calls YOU for something!? oh yeah, Ren is a card! i cant wait for my next visit....everytime i go there, i find myself roaming, looking for excuses to stay ;D
PAG Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Dear Brent, i'd like to aks you some...i have a H-140 with zebra Seymour '59 pups. It has a lot less treble than any of my Heritage guitars (now i own a Roy Clark but i the last 15 years i had a 535, a 575, a H-150 and a Sweet 16) I have no possibility to send my guitar (H-140) to the Factory for changing pickups into HRW's. So my question: if it's not super secret can you send me the mail adress of Ren. I'd like to discuss this problem with him. Thanks very much in advance, hope it will work out like this.

PAG Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Well, that would have been my 2nd guess. Thanks anyway, i'll write to him...
tulk1 Posted January 28, 2009 Posted January 28, 2009 Andras, They only seem to have the one email address over there. And Ren answers that email addy. So it's the best thing, next to calling them.
PAG Posted January 29, 2009 Posted January 29, 2009 I could discuss with Ren. He was really friendly, it seems the problem solved... thanks again.
