Gitfiddler Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Chicago Music Exchange has a very thorough and interesting overview of Heritage Guitars. https://www.chicagomusicexchange.com/blogs/news/inside-heritage-guitars
LK155 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Once again, no mention whatsoever of Bill Paige. He must have really pissed somebody off.
DetroitBlues Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Very cool article. Even mentioned PSP. Some of the words used though makes me wonder who the word-smith was that answered some of those questions...
skydog52 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Leaving Bill Paige out of the Heritage Story is a huge oversight.

TalismanRich Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 According to the NAMM oral history, Jim, Marv and JP actually started the company and when it was incorporated in 85, Bill and Mike Korpak joined as owners. While Mike left shortly thereafter, Bill stayed on until just over a year ago, when he finally retired. He definitely should have been included in the "members of note" at the very least. https://www.namm.org/library/oral-history/bill-paige Maybe we should just drop CME a line and say that Bill need to be added to the article.

I agree! Bill deserved to be recognized!

If it weren’t for Bill, Heritage would have never seen the year 2000 But yet they can showcase the pre-Madonna, Farmer.....(insert facepalm)

For a second, I wasn't sure if Brent was referring to Madonna Louise Ciccone being a farmer before she was famous or if he meant the Italian phrase prima donna of Pete Farmer being a a temperamental person that takes adulation and privileged treatment as a right and reacts with petulance to criticism or inconvenience.

MartyGrass Posted October 25, 2020 Posted October 25, 2020 Great presentation on Heritage. Many will get their introduction to 225 Parsons from CME. Bravo.

rwinking Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 It said that Tim Shaw was involved. Is this the Shaw of the famous Shaw-buckers fame? If so, and along with Randall Wall, why did they settle for such mediocre pick ups early on?
MartyGrass Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 I like the Schallers. I used to think less of them. But they are good PAF type pickups. I use them for jazz.
