brentrocks Posted April 6, 2019 Posted April 6, 2019 Davesultra and I did a little horse trading and I ended up with this awesome first edition H137!!! Its a 1992. It was all original until I upgraded the bridge and tailpiece to locking TONE PROS. It’s in incredible shape for 26 yrs old!!
y2kc Posted April 6, 2019 Posted April 6, 2019 That is a guitar I have been looking for. Very cool, y2kc
y2kc Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 Well I have been looking for that guitar with original hardware. Still a nice find. y2kc

High Flying Bird Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 The same model I bought my daughter back in 2011. This one is a '93. I replace the pups with SD Phat Cats. That thing will howl!
bolero Posted April 7, 2019 Posted April 7, 2019 congrats!! J is the same year as my #1 H150. For some reason I thought it was a '94
Dick Seacup Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Nice catch, Brent. Yours, Birds daughter's and mine are the only original run 137DD I've ever seen. Ren told me once they didn't make very many, but I can't recall the number he told me. I'm thinking he said less than a dozen.Sent from my SM-T713 using Tapatalk
DetroitBlues Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Very nice indeed. While its hard to see through photos, looks like a closet queen. Congratulations!
bolero Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I just checked the Heritage serial # sticky here on the forum: according to my math A-->J = 10 letters 1984-1994 = 10 years so a J serial should be 1994, no?

They are great little guitars. I never liked the P-90s used on the later models. They sounded too muddy to me. The Phat Cats in Lydia's guitar can scream and remain clear. It could be used for jazz.
High Flying Bird Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Here is a custom 137 I got used. It is a 2010. Lollar Imperials.
Administrator Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Is that all from the factory, Ron? Gold, bound flat-top? That is too cool for school. Are the back and sides natural? I don't remember seeing that one.

I teach a self defense course that instructs folks how to ward off guitar stands like this, I believe the one pictured above is the North American rest stop assailant edition.
