friendofjaco Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Greetings! I recently joined because I'm a jazz guitar player/enthusiast and a fan of Heritage archtops. My goal is to own one...lol I used to own a Gibson es175 but regret selling it about 10 years ago. Although it just didn't have the mojo that other hollow bodies have with solid tops. Anyway, just thought I'd say Hi. Mike
tulk1 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Hey Mike. Hello, and welcome to the HoC. Ownership is not a requirement. But, you will eventually. Not a Jazz Player, but plenty here are. The singer in my band owns a 1957 ES175. Got to say, that one has mojo.
Keith7940236 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Greetings. There are often Heritage archtops on the board for sale. Pick one up, you won't regret it!
rockabilly69 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Better get one while they are still reasonaby priced! Welcome Mike!
friendofjaco Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 Thanks for all the welcoming replies. I have a few general questions about the Heritage Marketplace. If I'm interested in aquiring a Heritage do you guys trade for non-Heritage guitars ever? And what's the opinion about listing a non Heritage guitar for a Heritage trade? Stupid question huh?

If I'm interested in aquiring a Heritage do you guys trade for non-Heritage guitars ever? And what's the opinion about listing a non Heritage guitar for a Heritage trade? Stupid question huh?There are specific rooms for selling Heritage guitars or non-Heritage gear. If you post, post in the appropriate section. As for trading, all up to the seller/buyer. The Admins rarely get involved in the sales, except to comment most times. And it's Caveat Emptor. Altho' if you deal with HoC regulars you shouldn't have any issues. Good luck. There's plenty of great gear in the For Sale rooms.
Redsand Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Welcome to the HOC…..Good times a plenty round here! There is a bunch of Tele loving gear traders here just head over to the For Sale/Trade sections and post what you've got and what you want. heres a link http://www.heritageownersclub.com/forums/forum/22-non-heritage-goods-for-sale-trade-wanted/
friendofjaco Posted February 11, 2014 Author Posted February 11, 2014 Thanks. But my tele is never leaving my peripheral vision. But I'll definitely check out your link though...

Spectrum13 Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 There are a couple of great looking 575 available in the Heritage market place currently so this might be some good timing on your part. BTW If you are a farmer and into "roots", is that roots music or plant roots?
peterbright Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Welcome and good luck with your search!
koula901 Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Welcome to the cult Mike! I like your 'friendofjaco' name.

friendofjaco Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 Welcome to the cult Mike! I like your 'friendofjaco' name. Thanks. I am a fan of the late bassist but the name 'friendofjaco' actually refers to my black lab Jaco who sadly passed a few years ago. I kept the user name though

Vanschoyck Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Jazz and a Tele is very slick. Welcome to the club.
friendofjaco Posted February 12, 2014 Author Posted February 12, 2014 Well, my tele has a Lollar P90 in the neck and has a real sweet phat tone for jazz. It's a keeper
Billgelder Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Aloha, and welcome to the group. the name 'friendofjaco' actually refers to my black lab Jaco who sadly passed a few years ago. I kept the user name though Were have I heard that before?
Steiner Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 Were have I heard that before? I don't know if I've been called on that or not... Labs are awesome companions. Sorry about your loss Welcome to the fray. While not a jazzer here, we both share the lust for Heritage hollowbodies and mongrel inspired monikers. I think you'll find this a good place.
