Genericmusic Posted March 5 Posted March 5 I attended the Kalamazoo Fretboard Festival on March 2. I wandered into a performance room and was surprised to see and an acoustic Heritage 12 string guitar. I couldn't get a closer picture of it during the performance. I did see the owner as he was leaving the festival and told me it was custom made in 1986.
golferwave Posted March 6 Posted March 6 Thanks for posting the pic! I don't think I've ever seen a Heritage 12 string acoustic.
bolero Posted March 8 Posted March 8 I think those may have been a collaboration between Larrivee supplying the bodies & Heritage the necks & final assembly

He told me absolutely not. He saw every stage of the build. The body and neck were built on Parsons street.
bolero Posted March 8 Posted March 8 Hey interesting. I believe the owners of Heritage are the ones who mentioned the Larrivee connection with their acoustics. But I guess not all of them!

But I guess not all of them! I heard the same story with both Larrivee and Godin. My guess that early in the companies development it was probably an Aaron Cowles build. He did a ldot of the acoustic builds before opening his own shop.
