y2kc Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Like many of you, I have more than my share of guitars. A handful get rotated with some getting played more than others. The Heritage Rambow model is getting a ton of play. It is just an easy, no frills workhorse. I am kinda simple and so is the guitar. This guitar is a "C" series and run through my '54 Gibson ga-40 sounds very authentic. This is a tone that really can not be replicated with bigger amps and more volume. It is what it is. Pure Kalamazoo. Besides the Heritage, I have been playing two G&L's as well. A second body style sc-3 and a signature model Asat Classic. Those three guitars provide a pretty full range of sound and a whole lot of enjoyment. So besides your Heritage, what else are you playing? just wondering, y2kc
Thundersteel Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Well, since you asked: Hamer Artist Custom: Hamer Studio Custom: G&L L-2000: G&L JB-2: Challenger SRT8:
Telenic Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 If not my Heritage 575 then I'm playing either of my two Gretsch Duo Jets (one with TV Jones Classics, the other with SD Dynasonics) or my home made Telecaster.
Heritage525 Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 G&L Legacy, two of them! Love my G&L's!
barrymclark Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Other than the 575, I have a late 60's Zombie (back from the dead) Gretsch 6120 and a mid 70's Gibson J-55. There are some guitars I would like to have... but, more importantly, I have a guitar that I have had designed for a couple of years I hope to have built one day.
H Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 My ElectraBird and my Hummingbird. More the latter than the former; I think I'm getting into a mellow, winter mood.

gpuma Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 My Martin, my Recording King Tricone and my Ovation, in that order. When it comes to being plugged I still have an awesome Stratocaster on loan but I never play, it's always one of my Heritage. The GoldTone Resonator generally gets a lot of attention too, but it needs a trip to the doctor so I have not played it lately
Guest HRB853370 Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 62 AVRI Strat, Eric Johnson Strat, 57 RW Strat, Gibson LP Traditional, Gibson LP Studio Gemstone, Gibson SG, Gibson LP Standard "Duane Allman" Goldtop, and an assortment of Heritage H 150's, H 535's, one H 555, one H 155, one H 525, one H 550. Won't discuss drumkits or bass guitars as I assume you were talking gits. Sadly, I do not own a muscle car like Thundersteel does!
DetroitBlues Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Since I'm fresh out of Heritages, I need to settle for these: And Finally!
y2kc Posted November 30, 2012 Author Posted November 30, 2012 G&L Legacy G&L George Fullerton G&L SB-1 G&L JB-2 I have a "V" neck version of the Fullerton. Really a nice guitar that should see the light of day more often. As far as Legacy's go I have a custom ordered hardtail with a #3 birdseye maple neck. They really do make nice guitars! y2kc y2kc
Singerman Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Other than my 535, the only other guitar I've been playing is a J-35 Gibson acoustic. I'm in the market for a telecaster, so at some point I'll work that into the rotation.

iim7v7im7 Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Aside from my two Heritages, I have two acoustics (OM and Gypsy) and 3 solid bodies (Tele, Strat and Tele-Paul). Since I am selling my Sweet 16, I will be down to one Heritage (H-535) and no Archtop until my Comins arrives next April.

JeffB Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Lipstick strat non stop, except for CS strat and HH strat for gig tonight. Im pretty much besotted by strats right now.
kidsmoke Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 My ElectraBird and my Hummingbird. More the latter than the former; I think I'm getting into a mellow, winter mood. I'm with you H, been spending more time on the acoustics lately than I have for a while, but still plenty of Electric lovin' as well. I'm taking blues lessons, so I have too. Still honeymooning over my Larrivée RS-2, whose 25.5" scale got me warmed back up to my Benford Tele, which was further encouraged by delivery of my Champ clone yesterday....that 5F1 loves those Bill Lawrence p'ups. My acoustics are my Washy/Bourgeois D-55 Cherokee, and my Larrivée LV03. I'm sooo confused. I basically sit in my room with my guitars, 4 on the wall and one on the stand, and I cycle through them. Paradise for this ADD boy. Which ever one is in hand when I get called away is the first one that gets played "tomorrow". Benford Tele RS-2 (I know ya'll are gettin' sick of hearing about this one) Cherokee LV03
DaveW Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Mostly Guilds, and a D'Angelico (Korean). I practice with the D'Angelico because it's the hardest to play of all, and builds strength.

SouthpawGuy Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 Apart from Heritage there's G&L, Larrivee, EBMM and Hamer plus one or two others G&L ASAT Classic Custom Larrivee RS-4 EBMM Luke II Yamaha SBG2000 Hamer Studio Custom Brian Moore C90 Ibanez AR300 Artist PRS MCCarty ..
LK155 Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I'm down to two Heritages, the 1996 H535 and my latest acquisition, an Antique Natural H525. As for others, there are only two: The Suhr ProSeries S2, which lives in its case 99% of its life. Whenever I take it out, I wonder why I don't play it more often--it has a truly wonderful neck. And this one, a 1993 PRS CE24 that I got earlier this year. I have to admit, this one gets the majority of my playing time. It's just such an astoundingly good guitar. (Yeah, I know, wrong forum.) I'm extremely lucky to have these fine instruments. They are way above anything my meagre talent level deserves. But lessee here, I still don't have a Tele. Or a decent acoustic..........

DetroitBlues Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 If you need one, I will finance it for you interest free through 2013. I've heard that before. I'd just borrow one for now. A little try before you buy.
JackBaruth Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I have about eight "other" guitars for each Heritage I own. No, I don't have a life. But lately I've been playing my PRS Private Stock Signature pretty much all the time. And a pair of Carvin basses (SB4000 and SB5000).
rockabilly69 Posted November 30, 2012 Posted November 30, 2012 I have quite a few guitars that go in and out of rotation, but for performance, my main 3 electrics are my: H150, Gibson R0, and my Zemaitis Disctop. My main acoustic is my 1979 Gibson Gospel. My main Reso is my National Custom Artist M2. The Gibson Gospel gets more use than all the others combined as 80% of the time I'm playing solo acoustic. It is a freak of nature but it is the best live acoustic I've ever played. It is set up with a Fishman thinline, and I play through a pedal board with EB Vol Pedal, Boss TU2 tuner, Fulldrive II Mosfet, Durham Sex Drive, Voodoo Labs Trem, RE20 Space Echo, and a Biyang RV7 Reverb. That goes to a Allen and Heath Zed 10FX Mixer and a Mackie HD PA System and a Mesa Boogie DC2 amplifier. I use the same PA and amp when I play electric. LP Tone Heritage H150 (Zhangbucker pickups, Faber bridge and tail), Gibson Historic '60 Reissue For Slide Guitar... Zemaitis Disctop (Tom Short pickups), Supro Lexington, Harden Switchblade, Gibson LP Special, Semi Hollow Tone... Gibson ES125, Epiphone Dot (cheap stock guitar that SOUNDS GREAT!!!) Gretsch Tone... Gretsch Country Gent Fender Tone... 1984 Fender Squier Strat (Duncan Alnico II pickups), 50's Reissue Tele (Van Zandt Vintage Tele Pickups) Reso... National Artist M2, National Artist Triolian, National Polychrome Tricone, National Western D, Johnson Model 0 Knockoff (heavily modded- new neck, cone, biscuit, highlander pickup) Acoustics... Martins -(00015S, OM15, SP00016TR), Gibsons (J100 Extra, Gospel), Parkwoods (2 LE061s, PW310), Tripp Custom Dread, Ovation Legend 12 string
