GuitArtMan Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Welcome! Is that a 20th aniversy 535? Schweet!!!
HellSpawnt Posted August 22, 2007 Author Posted August 22, 2007 Howdy GM =) Why yes it is ;D. I love it to death and will never get rid of it but its a major love-hate relationship. Its actually my second one. I ordered it in Feb of '06 and it got to my local dealer in May of '06 but UPS got a little carried away in trying to get it to me and rammed a forklift fork through the bottom of it >. I never saw it but was told It couldn't be fixed. So they had to remake it and I got the magic phone saying it was in in Nov of '06. I raced there after I got out of work to see my 20th Anniv 150CM only to see the case was the wrong size and started to get a bit nervous. I opened the case and there before my eyes was THE WRONG MODEL!!!!!. Thats right folks I ordered a 150 and got a 535 so the wrong model was ordered twice and to boot I had ordered gold hardware and upgraded to the HRW pickup which were nowhere to be found. So my dealer couldn't apologize enough for the screw up and asked what I wanted to do. As you can see I took it as is out of frustration. Then I went to go order a 150 deluxe from him a few weeks ago and he wanted to charge me list price for it and that he had charged me list for the 20th making the whole situation even worse. Anyway, the guitar sounds, plays and looks fantastic, but the history of it makes me want to crack it over the dealers head.
Thundersteel Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Welcome to the H.O.C.! Beautiful guitar! Anyway, the guitar sounds, plays and looks fantastic, but the history of it makes me want to crack it over the dealers head. Maybe you should try it using the H150 you wanted!
slider313 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Welcome and a beautiful guitar. If UPS knew it was a brown guitar, they may have been more carefull !! In any case it looks great. What pickups are in it ?
HellSpawnt Posted August 22, 2007 Author Posted August 22, 2007 Howdy, The 20th Anniv. comes with SD Antiquity PUs
slider313 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Must sound sweet !! I had a set of Seth Lovers in a H147CM that sounded real nice. I sold the guitar and kept the pickups. They are gold covered, so I guess I'll have to get a H555 down the road to put them in.
High Flying Bird Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 They just don't make an ugly guitar! I love it when my 535 fills with sound and blows air out the f-holes. What a rush! Try Wolfe Guitars. I bought from them and was very pleased.

No need for that, HellSpawnt! I can give you my address details so it can be sent to me. All your grief will be over soon.

J Hale music is another great place to pick up a Heritage http://www.jhalemusic.com/ Jeff's a great guy and always has a nice selection of Heritage guitars and other cool jazz stuff.
DrFrankStein Posted September 3, 2007 Posted September 3, 2007 I got mine from Jeff Hale. He was great to work with and very patient and helpful.
