Besty Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 Hello,. New to the Club. Just purchased a 1995 h-150 Custom limited edition and can't find to much info on these beauties. Mine is #141. Would appreciate any info or links. Thanks Ben
brentrocks Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 H150 Deluxe multi ply bindings on the top, belly cut, matching headstock veneers. Unltra top. Bound maple pickguard. Looks like your pickups arent original. Very cool guitar!!!
Millennium Maestro Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 The H 150 Deluxe was an upgrade sequential model, it had the above mentioned features and Seymour Duncan. 59s as original pickups. Rings were cream to match binding and knob were Amber hats. I love them and own several, good job!
Besty Posted January 25, 2018 Author Posted January 25, 2018 Thanks, for the info. This one is from the original owner and say he has not changed anything ? I'll take a look at the backs of the pickup.
Besty Posted January 25, 2018 Author Posted January 25, 2018 This was purchased from the original owner who owned Blue Note Music in Vermont and went straight to his personal collection, he says it's all original.
FredZepp Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Nice one.. That is a cool model of an H-150. And it's always nice to check the label in the control cavity for anything noted on a Heritage. Here's what was in the catalog in 1989, right after the H-150 was introduced. You'll notice a few changes from these early ones to yours.... like in the pickguard shape , etc.
TalismanRich Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 VERY nice guitar. The Deluxe is an interesting beast, a 150 with some elements of the 157 like the multilply binding on the body, bound headstock, and some unique items like the headstock veneer and the belly cut on the back. Enjoy!
Besty Posted January 26, 2018 Author Posted January 26, 2018 Thanks for the great replies and the cool 1989 catalog picture.

y2kc Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 That is just beautiful and I wouldn't change a thing on it. Nice! y2kc
LittleLeroy Posted January 29, 2018 Posted January 29, 2018 Welcome, Ben! Awesome guitar; congrats! Have you played/owned any other Heritage guitars? Is she very heavy?
Besty Posted January 30, 2018 Author Posted January 30, 2018 Thanks, I haven't weighed her but feels about 9 lb-ish. I have a 02 H-150 Gold Top and 02 H-535 Trans Cherry and they both play amazing on the other hand this 150 Dlx feels abit stiffer. It has a ebony board the older tail piece which is all the way down not sure if these things make a difference. Beautiful guitar just needs a few tweets. This forum is great. Ben
Besty Posted March 20, 2018 Author Posted March 20, 2018 1995 H-150 Deluxe Limited Edition #141 Changed out the tailpiece and added pickup covers, personal preference.
buzzy Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 what a beauty I prefer the look with covers sounds like you've rustled up quite a herd of Heritage - love to see a group photo

TalismanRich Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Wow, she really shined up nicely. I like the pickup covers.

Besty Posted March 21, 2018 Author Posted March 21, 2018 This shows the top a bit better. Anybody care to share their babies. I just love these guitars. If I'm doing anything at my desk you can bet I'll have a case open.
