H Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 In 1990, they made this with a 'long enough' tenon. The neck is still attached so I suppose it worked Another golden year.
mark555 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Hamer makes a great guitar as well...i consider Heritage and Hamer to be 2 pees in a pod don't you mean "peas"? LOL!!
mark555 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 Ah yes, having read the whole thread I see that I am a little late with funny comment.....
2bornot2bop Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Are there any Golden Years for Heritage Guitars?????? Why, of course! 2007 is their most golden year. WHY?! Because that is the year they made this glorious 'Golden Amber' beauty just for me!! :-) H-555 One of the finest trip 5's I've seen yet. I dig that Amber shade. Congrats Git'!
soybean Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 ... but they don't use no stinkin' Plek machine! I heard that they even sold it. I don't think it had been operational for about 7 or 8 years. Oh, I didn't know that. Well anyway, when Heritage did use the Plek machine, it marked the start of good fret work for Heritage. By that, I mean well shaped frets and frets that are level.
mark555 Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 Make a drummer out of you yet ..... Always wanted to play drums, it looks like I am prime material....
CustomEagle Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Hello, I've been a member here for a while but haven't posted, as you can see. I bought a custom Eagle back in the '90s from Jim Duncan of Southpaw Guitars in Houston. Solid, carved, single piece mahogany front and back. LOVE the guitar but the frets and nut were horrible!! I had a complete refret and nut job done as well as a custom bridge, all done by Jim Hewett. Now it's my favorite archtop! Click on thumbnail.
