ALM S13

ALM: Almond Color I guess

S13:  no clue: any ideas????

Duh: I was hoping it was a secret code identifying the most valuable Heritage on the planet! 

Thanks!

It may be!  Let's see what she looks like.

Well, I had it listed for sale, but I just took it down. I've decided, after considerable research, that this is  one substantial instrument. 

I had no idea what I had in my hands, but given that this was made in 1996 by those fine folks on Parsons Street, with a carved solid 

spruce top, I have concluded that its worth keeping.  Now if I can elevate my playing ability to justify my ownership of such a fine instrument, I will 

be quite happy.

Good luck with that.  Didn't work for me.  Just be happy you own such a fine instrument.

Almost Sunburst...

 

That's a fine example of a sweet guitar.  Enjoy!

I think my 535 was a 1996.  It was the same color.  That is one of my favorite Heritage finishes.  Congrats!

I guess the boys were feeling a bit verbose the day they filled out the label.
