RhoadsScholar Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 I got this about 1 month ago and finally got around to bringing her back to life with a set up, a new pickguard. It is a Goldtop Heritage H576 (one better than the H575).
Hfan Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 Excellent again, just saw that on the Jazz forum. Spending a day off not getting chores done ha ha. Beautiful gold top. Congrats. I'm interested in the pickguard too, where you sourced it from. It is a perfect match for the sides for sure. I have an H 150 that screams out for a nice wood guard. Cool head stock too!
RhoadsScholar Posted April 22, 2019 Author Posted April 22, 2019 Found the pickguard on ebay. Originally bought it for another guitar but it was too wide. Ran about 65 shipped (don't recall the seller though). It was a one off and he was going to start building bound pick guards. I will look around and see if I can find the transaction. It really sets off the wood stained back and sides.
Gianluca Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 beauty, make it sing :-) what wood for back&sides ? Maple maybe?
bolero Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 congrats!! beauty! I had a 576 for a while, but kept getting my fretting hand jammed in the cutaway playing high notes. The body, being thicker than a 535, is more awkward to get around 575 with the Florentine & easier access is what I settled on
