Popped my control cavity cover after 25 years

After reading much of what is offered on the HOC site and speaking to Mellinium Maestro, I decided to see if there was a sticker on my control plate cover.

This is what I found.

H-150 DLX

LTD ED. ACB

Hi Fildogg,

 

Nice that you've discovered it's a Limited Edition. Assuming you actually have the guitar that goes with that cover plate ........ :laughing7. That's a back handed way of saying Post Pics of the Guitar, too! :thumbsup: It's sort of an unpublished law, ya know.

I posted some pics when I introduced myself as a new member about 2 weeks ago, but here they are again.

And that one, as I've said before, is a rare beast: a Gibson-cut 150. Nice!

Older Heritages are awesome. My old one had a finish just like that. Wish it had a fatter neck. Mine had a thin D shape profile.

And you said you hated clownburst too!!

Pre lawsuit model. The 150's had the same horn as the Gibson LP. Heritage changed it afterward to avoid further problems.

DB you would love this neck speced it from my 1988 Pro Showcase edition Goldtop 50's chunky but fits in the palm of the hand

SEE I told you it was a deluxe! You already knew it was a Ltd Ed. One of the best models to come out in my opinion!

Yep you are absolutely correct on both accounts!

Thanks for taking the time to fill me in.

Those are some terrific looking guitars.

Are you the proud owner of all three?

Killers….all 3 of them.

 

Does your numbering system represent guitars you own or have owned in chronological order of purchase?

That is thier number in the limited Edition sequence, around 200 produced by around 1999, I Dont know what they are up to currently!

Describing the cut of the horn, Heritage was made to slightly modify theirs to avoid having to defend themselves from the wrath of Henry's legal team. Others know the exact year of the change, late 1980s or early 90s.. Take a close look at the present day cut, which I like better anyway!

Ah, that one. Nice. Oldhimerz here, so I forget everyone's guitars but my own. :icon_tongue: Love the pre-lawsuit horn. Bit of a rare bird there.
