Newly acquired 2008 Heritage H-150 Deluxe

[75Formy]

 I recently acquired this Heritage H-150 Deluxe in a beautiful Burnt Amber. It's stunning in person. Weight is great, not too heavy. I had a Heritage H-150 Alex Skolnick Model i ordered which i think only 6 sold? But i got a bit out of my mind and sold it and regretted it since. Since so few were made it's impossible to find another. Anyway, here's some photo's ... Ron .. Okay, i tried to paste the photo's but getting file size too large, and my add links to forums, not working either?

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Congratulations.   The H150 DLX was an ongoing number edition, which I think is now discontinued.

Yes - Brent is correct - the number was a consecutive count of the Heritage 150 Deluxes built - after Floyd Newton's departure/death, I don't think they continued.

I have a 2006 Heritage 150 Deluxe Antique Cherry Burst (ACB), SD 59 pickups marked "235" by Floyd Newton – Floyd Newton was in the Gibson paint shop in Kalamazoo, then did the painting for Heritage when they started up in 1984 – he lived Dec 8, 1933 – April 7, 2012

By the way, I think I've seen this guitar before - and if it is the same one I'm thinking of, it was a NOS guitar originally commissioned and sold through LASAR Music Corp in Brentwood, TN, a company owned by Lane Zastrow former VP of Sales for Gibson, who also led the early marketing for Heritage

That is certainly Deluxe by all standards and a guitar that screams to be played. Very nice.
