I get my fix wherever I can. Then I try to resell them here, on other forums, and on ebay. I've never bought a new Heritage. But I bought some really nice closet queens.

The Music Gallery in Highland Park Il. USA. Picked up my Johnny Smith from them Friday. I had it PleKed and a small delamination of the finish on the back (about a 3/8" split along the seem) fixed. When I picked up Johnny I dropped off a Hamer Newport 90 to be PleKed.

Mojos Music in Edwardsville, IL. Bob is great to work with. And if you have your specs where he has little to do but phone it in, you'll get an amazing price on your custom order. Plus he'll discount heavily for forum members on in stock guitars.

Joe's Music in Detroit

None of the "Heritage Dealers" in this area (Washington DC) keep Heritage guitars in stock.

I would be a dealer if I had an actual brick & mortar store front.

So, since there is such a thing as World Wide Web, and because I am former Florida resident, I'm calling Wolfe Guitars in Jupiter Florida my preferred dealer.

And yes, I've been there once in person to do a deal.

My answer to the question "Who's your dealer" is WHO'S YOUR MAMA!

 

Nah . . . My dealer is whoever has the right guitar at the right price. My first couple were through Jerry's Lefty guitars, then I got wise and started buying them used.

It use to be elderly when I lived in Michigan.

Then it was Dennis at Big Orange in Daytona, but Big Orange has one the way of so many other mom and pops.

Music Man for my 555 when they had a store in Livonia, Michigan. I think they still have a store in Brighton. Aaron's Music In Vicksberg for my 157. He was well worth the drive.

That's right - Washington Music Center not only doesn't carry Heritage and they no longer catalog items, Jerry's Music in Rockville is no longer an entity and

 

Music Land

200 Gateway DR

Bel Air, MD 21014

 

doesn't have any items but has a catalog and will order you anything you want.

 

If I was to buy another I would consider Jay in Florida or I would put a feeler in with Joe at archtop.com

I have always used Jay Wolfe. The only other person I have bought a Heritage from was Brent of Brent's Guitar Emporium.

 

Some guy in a trailer park down the road gets me the best stuff!

Jay Wolfe, but typically Elderly Instruments in Lansing......... enough said!

Im my own dealer. No one has sold me as much stuff as I have. Not one other dealer has been able to qualify me as well as I have. Repetitively and consistently I have pushed the right buttons and convinced myself to exchange cash for goods. I conquered the customer that refused to be sold to.

And now Im dealing with the hangover and cleaning up the mess.
