Quietflame Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 I joined HOC and bought an H-575 from Tonedeaf last September. (Tonedeaf was great to work with.) I had intended to post as a new member when I bought it, but just didn't and then the site went dark ... The H-575 is a wonderful guitar, and beautiful. It exceeds my skills. Tonedeaf's pictures in his posting are better than mine. http://www.heritageownersclub.com/forums/topic/27827-fs-heritage-575-asb/. A recent picture is attached. Although I now measure my guitar experience in decades rather than years, I am fairly new to jazz - even light jazz. Still working my way through Arnie Berle's book of Chords and Progressions for Popular and Jazz Guitar, and applying the knowledge to a small group I play with locally. Mostly pop tunes from the 1920's to 1940's - think "Paper Moon," "Summertime" and "What a Wonderful World." At least the H-575 gets played every day, and my skills are improving. And about 3 weeks after the guitar was delivered, I attended a wedding reception, and lo and behold, there were two guys playing great tunes, and one had a flat-top with a familiar headstock. He identified the guitar as a now-discontinued H-480. I had never heard of a Heritage flat-top before. Both players were exceptional. He gave me permission to post the picture on this forum. So there it is. I am happy to be a part. And will eventually learn how to post proper pictures! Quietflame

Steiner Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 575s are awesome guitars. They'll pay back every ounce of effort you invest with interest. She's a beauty; Congrats!
