If Heritage had time to make you one guitar before closing forever, what would it be?

What if you were told that Heritage was closing forever and that if you wanted one more guitar from them, you had to order it immediately. No custom orders. What would it be?

 

For me: A 555, because I love my Prospect and I'd want something a little bigger with a little more bling. I'd let them pick the colors.

A 525 most likely, or possibly a 2 pickup Eagle; I have most of the other bases covered that I am currently iinterested in.

I just wouldn't let them close. They aren't going anywhere.

Concur.

Sunburst 555.

 

Or, if we are doing hypotheticals, what ever their version of a double neck SG would be. Why? Why not?

8 - 8.5lb Goldtop with lightback H150. RS guitarworks aluminum tailpiece with steel studs, Pigtail or Callaham ABR with Retrospec posts (screwed directly into the top) and thumbwheels, Throbak P90's, Complete RS guitarworks wiring harness with superpot volumes and closely matched 500K pots Jensen PIO caps, the best kluson style replica tuners. That would do it for me:)

I think the 357 is a custom order. When I got my guitar of a lifetime I ordered a 357.

 

If I had to do another I might go with a 550 or a 157 in either OSB or colored like H's 150.

very tough call....I'd probably spend so much time debating models I'd miss it.

 

probably a VSB Millie Ultra, p'ups to be determined (let Duerloo decide, it's his build). Completely classic tip o' the hat to Gibson's benchmark electric, while being the epitome of what Heritage has learned, and introduced.

Chambered 157. Beefy neck. Nickel hardware. '55 style stop tailpiece, no tune-a-matic. Lollar Charlie Christian in the neck, Lollar P-90 at the bridge.

Millie Ultra Pro; Vintage burst; 4A flame top; 59 Neck profile; 5pc flamey neck; Throbak p'ups; Split-block abalone inlays; ...Um, you get the picture!!
