Kuz Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 I wasn't making fun of him or the number of SilverBursts he has owned, I was just curious if this was the 6th or 7th he has done. Maybe he doesn't want to tell.
602a Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 I'm not making fun either it's his guitar. I just never wanted to change a Heritage color but I usually buy the color I like so I don't have the desire. To each his own.
Genericmusic Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Aw com'on guys maybe Brent just likes them. You might be over thinking the whole process. Anyway, I think it's cool.
brentrocks Posted December 6, 2012 Author Posted December 6, 2012 LMAO...... i think its the 4th one? This one was started for me, you see. Jack had a BB H 157 at Pete Moreno's a while back and had Pete strip the top. Jack decided he didnt want to carry on with the project and sold it to me. So there i had a black H 157 with a bare wood top.....of course i'm gonna do a silverburst on it I know its wierd that i have done so many of these....but its fun
rockabilly69 Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 Nice guitar Brent! I like the chrome hardware:)

FredZepp Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Ha... I found this in the thread for SilverBurst III.... there will not be a Silverburst IV http://www.heritageo...urst#entry63390 Never say Never.... That's what they said about Rocky and Die Hard and Batman and... I want Dibbs on Silverburst 7 - just has a nice ring to it.
HANGAR18 Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 Would it be safe to say that in each of these refinish cases, that the appearance of the wood grain was not particularly interesting enough to be worthy of applying a translucent finish in order to show off the natural wood grain?

Millennium Maestro Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 there was some decent flame, but the bookmatch was off centered It had an awesome tight ribbon flame if I remember correctly, Schundog has a pic that will refresh my brain!
DetroitBlues Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 I'd take that wood grain! May not be perfect, but isn't that the point? Nature doesn't have to give us perfection to be beautiful!
brentrocks Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 I'd take that wood grain! May not be perfect, but isn't that the point? Nature doesn't have to give us perfection to be beautiful! the next time you have a H 157 BB, you are more than welcome to do with it what you want
brentrocks Posted December 8, 2012 Author Posted December 8, 2012 It had an awesome tight ribbon flame if I remember correctly, Schundog has a pic that will refresh my brain! it wasnt what i would call a monster top...when pete wiped it with some napfta, i didnt think it was that spactacular
DetroitBlues Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 the next time you have a H 157 BB, you are more than welcome to do with it what you want That's not going to happen! I was just pointing out it had a nice wood grain regardless of perfection...
Kuz Posted December 8, 2012 Posted December 8, 2012 Brent, I think you made an average guitar a great one. People often say they like plain or unique tops, until it is time to buy one. The flame/quilt bodies always sell better. I have never read where some one said, "Man, just look at the beautiful lack of flame in that off center seam guitar!" Well, done on the Silverburst!!!
brentrocks Posted December 9, 2012 Author Posted December 9, 2012 I decided to put the covers back on the SHAWs today....looks a lot better
Kuz Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I decided to put the covers back on the SHAWs today....looks a lot better It DEFINITELY looks 1000% better. My question is how did you put the covers back on? Don't they usually use some wax or other material to seal the seams so they don't SQUEAL?
