tulk1 Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 I think that is an H537. Out of production. But pretty darned cool for a big jazz box. edit: Could be a 576. They look very similar. Probably the same series, with one being the "upgraded" version.
Steiner Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 What Model Heritage is this? Why that's the model you ought to buy! That's a cool guitar!

Probably the same series, with one being the "upgraded" version. Not a 576! 576 has a stop tailpiece, rather than a trapeze. Not a 537, either. They had a thinner body than the 576, more like a single-cut 535. Somebody will chime in on this....
blueox Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Custom-ordered H-576 with bail tailpiece from 1990s?
SouthpawGuy Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Here's a lefty 516 ... the cutaway looks shallower.
yoslate Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Here's a lefty 516 ... the cutaway looks shallower. Sure does,Paul. The body of the guitar in question is a 576 body, and the appointments: bound headstock, block inlays, bound "f" holes, are all just like my 576. The only difference is the trapeze. Custom order 576, with the trap?

Custom order 576, with the trap? from the Gallery, '89 Catalogue p5 Looks like a 576 for sure.

rjs1 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Posted March 28, 2010 Well Folks, I hope you do not mind the quiz but I had to do it. A lot of good guesses here and some very close but Blue Ox hit it right on the head. This is an H-576 and is marked so inside on the label. I bought this new in 1994 and had no idea what I was getting other than a really cool guitar. I guess the store ordered it custom with the bail (trap) on it. I never seen another like it. I have learned a lot from this forum and thanks to all who post their comments on the HOC!!! BoB

tulk1 Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Guess what just came up on the 'bay? Not rj's of course, but a 576 all the same! Weird, eh?
rjs1 Posted March 29, 2010 Author Posted March 29, 2010 Wow, That is interesting. Nice guitar on the bay for sure and a reasonable price.
