Ok. Ive got one.

Purchased on September 28th 2014, H160v (serial number C 08603 built October 6th 1986) from C.J. Stanley.

This guitar was personally inspected and set up by Mr. Ren Wall at Heritage a couple of months ago (June 2014?).

I have had it professionally refretted and PlekPro. This might be the best H160v that exists.

 

Weight approx. 6 lbs.

 

Along with the problem of the Mobile version of this forum not switching to full web site it won't let me attach a photo from my desk top. I could last week.

That's an awesome Stat DLX with the traps and flamey top.

 

My VIP-1 .....

Sorry friend but that is not a stat DLX.... A deluxe has a carved top and a pointy headstock.. You have a very well appointed stat.

Erm.... actually it is a DLX... thats a carved top. This DLX is probably just a "one of a kind" with the classic headstock and the Les Paul style traps. It's also equipped with DLX electronics (not the switches the regular STAT is equipped with) and the Kahler trem is a Spyder not the surface mount used on the base STAT. Also the inside of the control cavity is marked STAT DLX by Heritage.

I couldn't attach photos today either, hence why I used photobucket to host these. It's a shame, I'd love to see your H160V

Thanks for the kudos I love my DLX..... I like the Burst on your VIP, its got that old school thing going on. That Parsons looks like its got a Louisville slugger for a neck!

This is my favorite DLX color.... gorgeous tiger flame too! looks like it was taken from the same batch of wood as my DLX.

 

Does your body binding follow the contour of the top and leave a little of the maple peeking out in the lower cutaway? (like a 1959 Les Paul)

I love my STAT. I don't see it ever going away even with a skinny neck.

Why did I sell my VIP??? (to pay for my 150) I need another one.

I truly regret selling my Parsons Street, but it helped pay for my custom 150. I bought a PRS 24 SE on Black Friday last year and as soon as I picked it up, I thought "I had one like this, only better"

Fred I call sell back dibs on this one :) If you ever want to sell it please give me the first shot.

I never did bond with the 162, but it was sooooo cool.

I'm not sure if this counts as a Super Strat, but I LOVE my X-Terminator. It has a nice handful for a neck.
