Paul P Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I find it fascinating to see Heritages popping up all over the world. We're still waiting to hear from someone in Africa then we'll have all the continents covered. Well, not counting Antarctica that is. Maybe some scientist will bring one along and tell us about it. Any of you out there listening in, give us a shout !
yoslate Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 thierry: Good to hear from you. Been quite a while since you last posted. Congrats on the acquisition of the historic 335. Given its pedigree, I guess we can forgive you. And now that the diplomacy is out of the way.... So where are the pics of the 150? Don't think for a minute that you're off of the hook! In fact, I think you've opened yourself up in posting the 335 but not the 150. You have some explaining to do....
thierryt64 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Rob: Glad to see your reply ~ I thought I was in the dog house :'( You're right, I need to make amends. Here are a couple of pics for starters... a youtube vid is on its way - I'll try to use the new embed feature of the board. #1 - Brand new H-150 is unpacked and given a "sniff of approval" by Mia the house cat. #2 - Close-up on the OSB finish (what a beauty eh?) #3 - Kyle in Heritage Heaven ;D Stay tuned for more goodies...

thierryt64 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Ok. Here's the Heritage Live! Played by Kyle meister (I hope this youtube embed thingy works...)
High Flying Bird Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Awesome! I hope to see you guys at the PSII this year. I will not be smoking with you this year but I will sit with you while you smoke. I look forward to seeing you guys again. Ron Cigarette free for 13 days. :angel:
thierryt64 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Ron, we're all looking forward to seeing you again at PSII also. Very fond memories of PSI we have (sorry, Yoda made me say this ) Something occurred to me... this year will be a true "reunion" for some of us ;D (I guess last year was actually a "union"?) Of course, it will be even more fun to meet both new and old HOC friends! But then again, that IS what life's about, I reckon... Here's an oldy from 1966, for those of you who aren't familiar with the "Ducks". Mick Jagger did say they were his favorite Canadian band on a few occasions... for what it's worth I'll try to learn a few of their songs before PSII and bring some tab sheets for whomever wants to join in ~ that will be my tribute to Roger
thierryt64 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 I forgot to mention something: in the previous video where Kyle plays Little Wing, the H-150 is plugged directly into my Fender HotRod Deluxe - no effect pedals whatsoever. Pure Heritage-to-Tube amp sound. This is important because, as you listen to the tone (especially at around 3mn:40s into the clip) you will truly appreciate the natural sustain of this guitar. The harmonics do not feedback, but produce a clean and lasting sustain transition from the note to its natural harmonic that only a carefully crafted instrument can reproduce with this level of purity. (Can you tell I'm a Heritage brainwashed addict yet?) Seriously though, Heritage guitars are awe-inspiring when played, as well as displayed :-) Cheers to all!
Dick Seacup Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Seriously though, Heritage guitars are awe-inspiring when played, as well as displayed :-) I would modify that to "Heritage guitars are inspiring when played, and awe-inspriing when played well." That was a great clip, Thierry; Kyle is quite a player!
fxdx99 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Hey Thierry!! Long time no 'hear' from. Nice to catch up on your guitar-news. Wow - Kyle's an awesome player - great playing on Wing. And that's direct to your Deluxe?!? I thought for sure there was a pedal in there. What pickups do you have in it? Looking forward to seeing ya at PSP! cheers, rw
bolero Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 ha, that ugly ducklings clip was cool, I've never heard of them & I'm Canadian

Looking forward to seeing ya at PSP! cheers, rw Hey Randy! nice to hear back from you too. Yep, the H-150 is direct to the Deluxe and has a pair of red-hot SD 59's. Ren did a fine job with the setup too Thanks for the nice feedback ~ I've passed the compliments along to Kyle who appreciated it very much! Bolero, where from are you in Canada? I'm in Scarborough (Toronto east).
thierryt64 Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 DimA, there is a HOC member and Heritage veteran Jacques, who lives in the Netherlands and might be able to help you locate a dealer closer to you, or assist you with your purchase & shipping details in Europe. His profile is http://www.heritageownersclub.com/forums/i...on=profile;u=15 Hope this helps, T
DimA Posted March 22, 2009 Author Posted March 22, 2009 I hope friend of mine will help me with shipping from States. It will be decided within a couple of hours.
brentrocks Posted March 22, 2009 Posted March 22, 2009 Ok. Here's the Heritage Live! Played by Kyle meister (I hope this youtube embed thingy works...) VERY COOL!!! hope to see you on July 31st!!! ;D
smurph1 Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Getting back to the original subject..I think..IMHO, if you are collecting guitars as am investment, then go with the GBrand, but if you are a player who wants a tone monster, and you don't have 4 or 5K floating around, then Heritage is the ticket..It's really pretty easy if you think about it from that standpoint..Just don't get caught up in the name on the headstock..OK I am off my soapbox now..LOL
DimA Posted March 23, 2009 Author Posted March 23, 2009 :afro: Well, you can congratulate me now) I've just became a happiest heritage owner )))) with this http://cgi.ebay.com/Heritage-H-150CM-LP-El...1QQcmdZViewItem But delivery.. it will take a month, maybe two but I hope it worth that :angel:patience:angel:
fxdx99 Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Hey, congratulations DimA!! That's a beauty - love the sunsetburst finish and seth lover pickups should shound great in it. Looks like a really good price, too. Ya done good!
thierryt64 Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Congratulations, DimA! You must be SO excited in anticipation. I agree, she's a real beauty and the price is right! Once you get it, send us a sample of her tone Cheers!
DimA Posted March 24, 2009 Author Posted March 24, 2009 Thanks to all of you I got a bigger photo. It seems like black in this sunsetburst is not really black, more like brown) heritage case.JPG heritage case.JPG_thumb

Spectrum13 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 DimA, Great choice. if you are half as happy as I am with my 150... :angel: Sunset burst is one of my favorite colors too.
Gitfiddler Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Thanks to all of you I got a bigger photo. It seems like black in this sunsetburst is not really black, more like brown) That's a fantastic looking 'tri-burst'!! Congratulations again! 8)
