Vanschoyck Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Options are: 1 spruce top 2 inlaid headstock 3 upgraded tuners (higher gear ratio) 4 Plek fret dress That's about it. Due to circumstances it took just a couple weeks short of a year for it to arrive. The photos are in different lighting, the color really changes depending on the light. The Plek process is really effective. I can get the action extremely low if needed with no problems. I straightened the neck a little and the action is just like I want it. It's really comfy to play. Seth pickup sounds very sweet. I think it's a winner. I don't really want to put it down.
schundog Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Wow, David, that is SWEET! In your talented hands, we MUST hear a clip or two, please??
TalismanRich Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Very nice! Can't wait to hear it on some of your recordings!
barrymclark Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 You will truly appreciate the 575. It is a great guitar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Ned Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 It could not be improved. Happy new guitar day to you. That looks like a perfect specimen.
Vanschoyck Posted August 16, 2015 Author Posted August 16, 2015 Wow, David, that is SWEET! In your talented hands, we MUST hear a clip or two, please?? Thanks for that Mr. Schundog. I'll try to get some noise up this week if I can. I'd like to hear it myself.
pressure Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 Fab 575. Is it really that orange? I'm liking orange a lot these days.
Vanschoyck Posted August 16, 2015 Author Posted August 16, 2015 Fab 575. Is it really that orange? I'm liking orange a lot these days. It's almond burst, and it doesn't look orange like that to me in person. But in photographing it it seems that each light type turns it a different color, and none of them seem to me to be accurate. Also, not so much "burst." It's a neat color.
tonedeaf Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 I have the same guitar with a black top (translucent really, but on the spruce it is almost black) and a translucent cherry finish on the rest of the guitar. Very nice. Love the guitar. The Seth is perfect for the spruce/maple build. Hope you like yours as much as I like mine.
FredZepp Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Sweet ! So glad that you are pleased with it.. looks great .
jimsoloway Posted August 17, 2015 Posted August 17, 2015 Single pickup spruce top 575 ... guitars don't get a lot prettier than that (add a 25.5" scale length and you have my all time favorite guitar ).
Vanschoyck Posted August 17, 2015 Author Posted August 17, 2015 Wow, FredZepp, I was about to post another pic and I see you've adjusted the color on the other ones. Thats it! That's what it looks like. (I promise I'm not trying to bump my own thread BTW.) Here it is anyway.
Vanschoyck Posted August 18, 2015 Author Posted August 18, 2015 Here's a clip. I tried a couple takes, and this will have to do for now - hope it's ok. Just direct into the device, no amp, and a little verb.
schundog Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 "As Time Goes By," I'm sure you'll learn to love this guitar more and more. It sounds as good as it looks.
Ned Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 I find them easier to buy than play. You had a sticky purchase, but boy can you play. Instrument sounds great in your hands
jimsoloway Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Here's a clip. I tried a couple takes, and this will have to do for now - hope it's ok. Just direct into the device, no amp, and a little verb. I absolutely love everything about that take. The sound of the instrument, the sound of the recording, the playing, the ideas, the touch. It really has it all.
FredZepp Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Finally took a moment to play the H575 Sample , man, that just flows with warmth and clarity. Seems like you've got the right Heritage in hand.
cuscus Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 A real beauty, love that color and nice play and tone :-)
