Heritage Guitars

I had a great 535 that my friend now has.  I guess I could get it back, but my GAS seems to have subsided*.  I've been blowing a lot of guitars and amps out lately. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Well, I did buy a fucking Corvette.  So maybe it has now manifested somewhere else.

One guy told me he was very upset at the losing of half the workers / builders. He said he likes buying guitars that were built by his "friends." I left it at that but wondered why he wanted to buy from friends who build guitars like shit. Same goes for Gibson though and these guys came from Gibson where they learned their bad habits. When you get a good one, it's really good. But many aren't. 

I guess I got lucky. After plecking all 3, they were great.  2 had good finishes and nice wood.  One looked like a Friday afternoon special after 5 0r 6 beers.  535 great, prospect (aka, pig ears) great, and 525 terrible binding and marginal finish, but all I wanted it for was George Thorogood slide.  I could not find a decent es125.
