FredZepp Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Excellent... awesome guitar with a great story. It is sooooo cool that you managed to grab a lefty LW 150....... I hope that you enjoy it ..... I think that you will love it..
koula901 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Posted April 4, 2012 Very nice Katie! Congrats! Is your Heritage request complete now? : ) Ha! Great question! I think it is, for the moment. The only other thing I can think of desiring would be a lefty Heritage Golden Eagle in ASB.
Steiner Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Yea Katie!!! Happy NGD! I have her RH sister here; she's a hotty too. The LW Heritages are anything but!
TalismanRich Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I'm liking everything about that one. I think cherry burst looks great and you've got a lightweight as well. Its a guitar that you can play and not feel as if you're carrying a lead weight all night. Kudos to SP and Eljay for helping you out with this little "project". That's what makes this such a great community!
High Flying Bird Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Happy NGD. I would like to know what pups are in it too.
DavesNotHere Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Nice! I love the top on that one! I love mineral streaks.
blueox Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Congrats on your H-150CM-LW! No doubt it's capable of makin' all kinds of music and look good doing it.
Gitfiddler Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Hooray, for Koula!! I remember how much you loved your other 150, but the heavy weight was obviously a turn-off. Glad you finally got a worthy replacement! Now play it in good health, young lady.
Spectrum13 Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Nice 150 Koula! One you start, it's hard to stop.
Kuz Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Way to go Katy!!! I agree with the 535 and the 137, you now have the ROCK trifecta of Heritage guitars!!!
111518 Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Congrats. Classic guitar, classic finish, and a great story to go with it.
H Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Hey hey Katy! You've got yourself back into the 150 club with a beautiful 'blushing VSB' Glad to see you found something which met all your requirements. It must be tough as a lefty, seeing all the amazing righty guitars out there and being limited to those that the manufacturers choose to make left-handed. Time to play it.
DetroitBlues Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 : ) Ha! Great question! I think it is, for the moment. The only other thing I can think of desiring would be a lefty Heritage Golden Eagle in ASB. I can't say that I'd ever have a need for a big Jazz box. Besides, if I'm nice enough, I get to play Steiners when I ever I visit him . What you have is a great collection, 137, 535, and 150? That's all I'll need! :D

koula901 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Posted April 4, 2012 Can't wait to get home and see that - we don't get You Tube, here at work.
MartyGrass Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 It's a beauty and it's a clownburst. They are not mutually exclusive- not one bit. The coloring evokes happiness, a sense of warmth and light, and awe, very different from a an opaque black. The important thing is that it plays well, is resonant, doesn't screech with volume, and won't cause back pain. There's a good chance that if Gibson could have cheaply chambered the LP in the 50s, that would be the standard today. The heavyweights would be an option that few would choose. You got a real winner there.
NoNameBand Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Congratulations Katy on your new Clownburst. No clowning around when you play it, okay? Great weight, looks great, now it needs love and playing. I'm sure she will get both from you.
DetroitBlues Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 Nah . . . you won't need them. They're lefty! I'll just seek out my inner Hendrix or Albert King...
