1992 Heritage Guitar Inc. of Kalamazoo, history pamphlet

[C9Y]

You may remember meeting my friend Mike at the last PSP. He had a Prospect with gold hardware. Mike used to be a Heritage dealer, and he fortunately kept some of his literature.

 

I thought you guys would all enjoy reading it. I scanned and have uploaded the history folio, it's pretty cool, and is black and white.

 

I also have a 12 page full color catalog, but it's too big for my allotted space, about 13 MB. If one of the admins would let me know if there's some place to archive it, please let me know.

 

Thanks guys,

Nice read. Thanks for posting.

Thanks! It'd be nice to see that catalog too!

That's a worthwhile addition to the Heritage library.

Thanks, I enjoyed that very much.

If you scan and create another PDF file, it should be small enough to place on this site. The other option would be to scan and save as a TIFF or JPEG and post on photobucket.com with a link here. Your PDF is awesome. Thank you for the effort.

Dont remember seeing you at PSP either. Can you give us more identifying information? There were lots of first timers...

 

Thanks for sharing the attachment.

hey thx for that

 

if you look at what they each wrote back then, I would say they have been successful with their goals!!

 

 

 

JIM DEURLOO:

"I would like Hentage to be the leader in top quality professional guitars.'

 

MARV LAMB:

"Heritage should have steady and continous growlh, but never lose control or allow the

guality of the product to suffer"

 

JP MOATS:

'My goal lor Heritage is steady growth to the top builder of custom guitars.'

 

BILL PAIGE:

"I feel Heritage has an image of high quality. We would like to maintain that image along with a prolonged period of growth"

Very interesting. I've never seen a Heritage catalog from any dealer, so it's nice to finally see one.

the '89, '92, & (i think) '93 brochures, and a price list are already here:

if mr. admin or any mods can or want to take them & put them in a better or more visibile area for all to see, that's fine by me, of course.

 

glad to see more potential dealer input

I can host the full size file on another web site of my own invention and put a link from this thread to that file there if the moderators of this site will sign off on the idea.

That is most of it, though oddly it's missing the first 6 pages, including the American Eagle. I'll be away for a bit, and will check back in about a week.

no, it's all there, just out of order. didn't find out 'til after i'd done uploading. so, all to be done at the time (maybe it's improved now? or maybe an admin can fix this?) was put the page numbers up there. just roll your cursor over a page for the pagination info
