Heritage525 Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Basically a standard 525 in vintage wineburst.....With the following added Sperzel locking tuners with ivory knobs Stinger Fat neck Premium wood Burst color on back of neck Ordering this through Jay Wolfe. He suggested I call and speak to Marv about the flamey wood. He said to let him know my HOC membership, all the Heritage guitars I own and have owned and Marv should hook me up. Opinions and other ideas welcomed!
sonar Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 "Stinger?" Is there a glossary around here? Sounds like fun to, order a guitar from Heritage built to specs. I once had n OM Martin pattern built for me by a local luthier, but that was ages ago and long gone now (and not exactly in the same class as a Heritage archtop, though had its assets, for a while).
SouthpawGuy Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 The stinger is the black "V" on the rear of the headstock. It used to be a standard item, it's now a custom option

yoslate Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Nice specs, Steve! The wineburst is a gorgeous finish. No bound headstock? Looking forward to your NGD!
Blunote Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Nice specs, Steve! The wineburst is a gorgeous finish. No bound headstock? Looking forward to your NGD! What he said...call Wolfe back and get a bound headstock. It looks cool and protects from dings and chips.
Guest HRB853370 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 You can now live up to your moniker of Heritage525!!

Keith7940236 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Congratulations on your order. We should be getting our guitars about the same time!!!
Heritage525 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Right on Will! Keith, what did u order
2bornot2bop Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 and the anticipation begins. CONGRATS YOU GUYS!!!
Heritage525 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 I added bound headstock, MOP "The Heritage" logo and a arrow/diamond (like 555) inlay on the headstock. Had to do it!
Gitfiddler Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I added bound headstock, MOP "The Heritage" logo and a arrow/diamond (like 555) inlay on the headstock. Had to do it! Good move, Steve. Obviously you wanted it slightly blinged. Spending a few more dollars up front will pay off down the road each time you open the case on your custom beauty.
