Hello everyone, i am a left handed jazz student, who recently came a cross a lefty H 550 for 1400 dollars. It plays beautifully, I'am new to heritage guitars but from what i felt and what i've read about them that seems to be a great deal. Any opinions on the H 550, and does that seem like an accurate price?

Some particulars: condition, repairs done, p'ups, year, photos; all might help the guys on the board dial in a more meaningful answer for you.

I'm guessing the deal is already done ... there was a lefty 550 for sale at $1400 a couple of months ago, in New York I think.

Southpawguy do you just have a lefty radar or something?  ;D

 

Yeah it's called Google, ;D, that and lots of looking online  :undecided:

 

Correct me if I'm wrong moth716 but did you get it from a place in Harlem or the Bronx ?

If it's in EX- cond or better, great deal! Paid $1,500 for my custom H-550 in '98. Ordered it with no p.u.'s, knobs, or fingerboard inlay so I could put my own stuff on it. Have tried every archtop model Heritage makes. The H-550 allows you to play louder and less muddy than the others since it is laminated except for the sides. Its competitor, the Gibson Tal Farlow, is no better, and some are worse than the 550, which are pretty consistent in quality. You will not find a better guitar for under $2,500.- Charles
