It's bad because I love it and like some of you guys said I might start looking for another!!!!!!! Lol !!

This 87 came in the mail today . The serial # starts with a D. The original owner sold it to me . I thought that was a good signthat he kept it this long!! I will have to change the pups but already have a set of Tom Holmes on the ready 5!!!!

What do ya think!!!

You have chosen well.

Not just bad but BAD A$$. Love the Stinger!

Sorry for my ignorance but could you tell me what a Stinger is . Maybe a title of a specific color ?

It is where the black paint on the back of the head stock comes to a point.

Stinger means that you've been stung by the Heritage bug...and there is no cure. :P

 

 

Enjoy and play that sweet 575 in good health.

"What do ya think!!!" ??? I think that is one nice guitar. And you did very well with that purchase. Almond Sunburst? Looks very elegant on that box.

 

BTW, I'd be happy to take that bridge pup from you if you don't like it. No clue what it really is, But it appears to be a Schaller of some sort. Whats wrong with them that you already need to change them out? Just curious.

Congrats man! I just got my first Heritage last week--another gorgeous 575! Bought it from a member of the forum here.

 

Now, you'll have to forgive me here . . . yours is beautiful to be sure, but I'll have to say that mine is prettiest. :D You know . . . it's like arguing about whose wife is prettiest. You just have to agree to disagree. :occasion1:

 

Seriously though, absolutely gorgeous guitar! May you have many hours of happiness with her!! :P

 

Looks like the back is a single piece of maple. Mine is 2-piece. Anybody know when Heritage made 575s with one piece versus two for the back?

Wow, that is really a killer 575. Quite Beautiful...!!!! :P And great job getting those pics to us right away... Nice pics of a sweet axe.

 

And as Tulk1 was wondering... What don't you like about the pickups... ?

 

The stinger on the back of the headstock is something that Parsons St. has done for a long time...

(some have it, some don't )it's just a cool look. :D
