holyroller Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Hi, will the factory refinish a heritage ? I have a h150 , and would like to change the color of the top and change the back to a more natural wood tone.
PunkKitty Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 You can send it to Heritage. But you can also have a good local luthier do the work. Since Chicago isn't too far from you, I recommend Chicago Fret Works.
Gitfiddler Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 If you have it done, let us know. I considered a refin to my 150 Ultra but never followed up.
Genericmusic Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 I highly recommend Pete Moreno, 269-337-1126. A lot of people here at HOC have had work done by him.
Billgelder Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 I highly recommend Pete Moreno, 269-337-1126. A lot of people here at HOC have had work done by him. I concur, he did a fantastic job on Guy's (Millennium Maestro) 150 ULTRA. Pete is terrific man, we had a great time talking to him when we pickup Guy's guitar at him workshop before PSP. http://www.heritageownersclub.com/forums/topic/23403-refinish-soon-to-be-unveiled-at-psp-i-cant-wait/?hl=refinish
big bob Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Heritage will direct you to either Pete Moreno or Arron Cowels. I believe Arron is in poor health and as such is probably not taking on work. You would be better off having a local shop do the refinish. It's not rocket surgery.
DetroitBlues Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 I highly recommend Pete Moreno, 269-337-1126. A lot of people here at HOC have had work done by him. The boys at the factory like his work too....
holyroller Posted October 20, 2013 Author Posted October 20, 2013 I thought the factory refinished his guitar. Thats the guitar that started me thinking of doing this. Mmm
Millennium Maestro Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 That's a pretty good picture concidering the bewitching hour and brews involved... LOL
Kuz Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 That's a pretty good picture concidering the bewitching hour and brews involved... LOL The picture of the guitar is great, but that punk-ass playing it not so much.
slider313 Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 My H140, before and after a Jack Briggs refin.
Millennium Maestro Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Thats a very sweet refin on that 140
schundog Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 That's a pretty good picture concidering the bewitching hour and brews involved... LOL No Comment....
Kuz Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 My H140, before and after a Jack Briggs refin. I am usually not a fan of refinished guitars. I usually think the originals look better. But, Mike your refinished 140 is the best looking 140 (or any Heritage for that manor) I have ever seen. I feel the finish on your refinished 140 would be VERY close to the finish on my Custom 555 if they were in the same light.
bolero Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Guy's H150 refin turned out amazing, saw it in person @PSP slider I am a big fan of cherry sunburst so I can't decide if I like the before or after better they both look great though
holyroller Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 Contact info for mr briggs. Looking into mr briggs or mr moreno.

holyroller Posted October 23, 2013 Author Posted October 23, 2013 Packed up and on its way Stay tuned,,,,,
Redsand Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Packed up and on its way Stay tuned,,,,, What's the estimated turn around time on a 2 sided refin these days?? Maybe when you get it back you can upgrade that anonymous silhouette avatar with a purple topped 150
holyroller Posted October 24, 2013 Author Posted October 24, 2013 You let the cat out of the bag!! Lol
holyroller Posted November 7, 2013 Author Posted November 7, 2013 Anyone close to petes shop that could check on my 150?
Millennium Maestro Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 My 150 deluxe was there for 1 Year... I was asking for a special finish, I would advise patience on the timeline... I am eagerly awaiting the final product!
