Teeky Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Does anyone know if there Is a copy of the 2006 catalog stored anywhere on the web server? I've looked on the Heritage company archive site http://wayback.archi...geguitar.com%2F but there is nothing behind the link to the 2006 catalog.
SouthpawGuy Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Try this one ... http://web.archive.o...tageguitar.com/ http://web.archive.o...5%20Catalog.pdf http://web.archive.o...itars%20161.pdf Both links are working for me.
Teeky Posted March 19, 2012 Author Posted March 19, 2012 Thanks SouthpawGuy. I found those links thanks, but one has 2005 in the filename. I followed the 2006 Models link to a second page which showed a Please download our complete 2006 Heritage Catalog Maybe I misinterpreted and the above was refering to the link on left column, HOME page.
fretless Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 man I wish the 137 was in some of these , pretty sure they were in production then just left out for some reason . I'd love to score some old 137 promo stuff if I could .

I'm guessing the one labelled '05 was compiled in '05 for release in '06. ?
fretless Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 You might consider contacting Jay Wolfe. I believe the 137 was one of his ideas. So I took you up on that and Mr. Wolfe got right back to me with some very nice notes on the 137 as per that email: Here's some notes: * Heritage made a H137 model in the early 90's w/ HB's and their roller bridge. Nice guitar My Pal has one & it was in for a setup. I decided at that time to try to convince Heritage to make this guitar again with P-90's and a Pigtail bridge. * Took a couple years to get the prototype- which I still have, *Pigtail maker Steve Rowan died & they were not available for a while & they switched to a vintage style bridge Meanwhile we tried many pickups in our prototype & the Lollars seemed most preferred by us all.* Began with Honduran Mahogany and later added some Korina versions. * I'm very pleased with this guitar & many players tell me it's the best "sounding" LP JR style guitar they've ever heard. I agree. In decades to come they will no doubt be prized on the vintage market. Hope this helps. Jay Wolfe
