Model introduction years

I know that the H140 and H170 were introduced in 1985. What are the introduction years of other Heritage models?

 

I've decided that when I add a new instrument, I'd like it to come from the first production year if possible. I already have 2 '85 H170's (including the one that I just bought from Brent).

Some models are missing ... the Millies, 137, 157, 170, 525, 530, VIP, VIP2 etc.

 

i.e. lots are missing :icon_sunny:

well the Millies were Milleniums, as in 2000. I think.

 

H137s (guessing here) 2003

 

 

BTW, my HFT445 is a "C", does that correspond with 1987?

The 137D with humbuckers was made in the '90s. The elusive Mr Seacup has one. The newer ones with P90s were built from the mid '00s, a Jay Wolfe model if I remember correctly.

What is the advantage of that PK?

Newbie here. I just bought a 137 bolt on neck d35402. Trying to find some info. I guess I can't upload photos? 1 dog eared p90. Wrap around pigtail

That's cool. I get kind of OCD about things like that too. I'm working on one from every year. I kind of got hung up with ones made in the late '80s. So, I just have 23 more to go. :)

 

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say my X Terminator was introduced in 1986 since Jim said they only made about ten of them, and the same with the Terminator. Marv said he did about ten.

As far as I can tell my Parsons Street was a 1988 only model and Marv told me they only made "a few" of those.

Does it say it's a 137 on the control plate cover ? It may be a 120 which was bolt on construction.

I think the maximum size for a photo attachment is 1.5 mb, you may need

to resize to 1024 x 768 which will also reduce the file size.

That sounds like a plan.
