H140CMCL

[KarlS]

My H140 is supposed to be a H140CMCL. What does CMCL mean? Sometimes I see acronyms which clearly stand for coloring; but CMCL?

HI Karl. CM=Curly Maple. CL=Classic.

 

Edit: Uh, you do know you can't ask questions without showing us the guitar, right?

Hi,

That would be for Curly Maple (the top) and Classic.

 

Classic often denotes use of Duncan '59 pickups.

 

Here's a link to a 140CM on the Heritage website

pics are always welcome by the way.

You re right, of course. Here she is:

She is perfect. Not too heavy, looks great and - better yet - sounds even better.

There is one problem though. With Heritage producing such a nice instrument, I am now lusting after a better amp and a H555 (or a H575 with a Bigsby. Or both).

I haven't run this by my quarterback, though. She is of the opinion that a new lamp in the living room, a new couch and the education of the kids come long before a new guitar. Unfortunately she is right (as always, of course)

 

In the meantime I play the lottery...

I thought CMCL meant "Country Music" and "Craigs List".

 

Just kidding; here are KarlS' pics:

 

 

 

I love that brown sugar looking finish.

A really, really nice 140 there... 1st edition even (sharp cutaway). I really like these, I just recently picked one up and just think that it's awesome.

 

That finish on yours is uncommonly delicious.....
