brentrocks Posted April 18, 2017 Author Posted April 18, 2017 I finally got a GOOD case for it!! Sweetwaters....$100 its an Epiphone case.....but i made it into a HERITAGE CASE.....LOL The fit is PERFECT!!!! They want $250 + for a gibson case!!!!
gpuma Posted April 19, 2017 Posted April 19, 2017 Yep, that is the same case I got for my 357 (and same sticker too!!!). It is not expensive and well done. Only issue with it is its size. It is a humongous case. I believe (not) Bill Gelder had a smaller case where the guitar sits "at an angle", saving considerable length. I also remember it was very expensive, though
brentrocks Posted April 30, 2017 Author Posted April 30, 2017 I have been playing the shit out of this guitar! It plays and sounds sooooo sweet!!! I am so overly geeked! The history, the feel, the tone!!! And its even published!!! LOL
Gitfiddler Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 That's awesome, Brent, especially since you've been the #1 fan of the Heritage brand for so many years.
davesultra Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Very cool Marvbird you picked up there. In some ways I miss the brown '89 model that I had & sold last spring. But with me being a small guy, that thing just looked HUGE on me. Congrats, and for the love of Pete... Hold on to that thing!!!

Polo Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 Very, very, cool indeed! But not a Marv bird. A pre- marv bird! That is true.
davesultra Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Alright guys, clue me in as to just what differentiates an H357 from a "Marvbird". All these years it had my understanding that Marv had been primarily responsible for all the H357/Birds.
brentrocks Posted May 1, 2017 Author Posted May 1, 2017 It was my understanding that Marv built all the H357s. I think the MARVBIRD tag originated when he started building them again, after an almost 20 year hiatus of the H357
brentrocks Posted May 1, 2017 Author Posted May 1, 2017 Very, very, cool indeed! But not a Marv bird. A pre- marv bird! Thanks man!!
brentrocks Posted May 1, 2017 Author Posted May 1, 2017 Fantastic. Good stuff happens for good people. Thanks dude!!

y2kc Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Brent & Company, Can anyone tell me where Pelham Blue comes from. Who is Pelham, what is a Pelham? That guitar is a beauty! y2kc
Genericmusic Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 Brent & Company, Can anyone tell me where Pelham Blue comes from. Who is Pelham, what is a Pelham? That guitar is a beauty! y2kc Pelham blue is a color invented by General Motors during the 1960's. It is simply a shade of blue with metal flakes added. It was originally used on Cadillac models. Guitar manufactures in particular Gibson were known for using automotive paints for its durability. Think guitars, Cadillacs, and Hill Billy music.
