Product Description
Celebrated as an icon and period-correct classic, the Heritage Custom Core H-150 authentically captures the energy and excellence unique to electric guitars from the late ‘50s — lovingly remembered as the "Golden Era".
Crafted by highly-skilled artisans in the legendary 225 Parson Street factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan — where some of the world's most coveted vintage guitars were made — this exceptional instrument drives a beautiful legacy; built with time-honoured techniques, traditional equipment and premium-quality materials.
In Heritage's own words, a "Custom Shop guitar symbolises our spirit of excellence and continuous innovation. As a tool for making music and a prized work of art, our instruments carry remarkable artistry and allow pure creative expression to take centerstage for a true musical experience."
Key Features
- 1-Piece, Ultra-Lightweight Mahogany Body — Yields the thick and sustain-rich sound synonymous with classic Kalamazoo guitars, without the cumbersome weight.
- Premium Curly Maple Top — Exemplary material adds bright complexities into the tonal mix, enhancing top-end bite for superb note clarity.
- Nitrocellulose 'Vintage Gloss' Finish — Old-school, hand-sprayed lacquer allows the instrument to breathe; delivering an airy and responsive sound. Vintage gloss adds a subtle shine and velvety smooth feel to this guitar; ageing beautifully over its lifetime and developing a patina unique to its owner.
- Hand-Shaped '50s "C" Neck — Extremely comfortable, period-accurate profile offers a true "time capsule" playing experience.
- 4.5" Neck Angle — Less acute angle (than that on the Standard H-150) means that the Custom Core H-150 is optimised for the best possible setup.
- Distinguished Headstock — Features a holly veneer, the classy Heritage logo and a unique 'Twin Arrow' inlay for that extra layer of finesse.
- Rosewood Fingerboard — Smooth and silky material, featuring a comfortable 12" radius and 22 frets.
- Jescar Medium/Jumbo Frets — Offer a controllable feel for wide vibrato and pitch-perfect string bends.
- Heritage 225 Classic Humbuckers — Developed in-house and tuned specifically for this guitar, these prized pickups have a versatile tonal range and excel in any genre or tone imaginable.
- Custom CTS Potentiometers — Enable smooth control over individual pickup volume and tone.
- Locking Tune-O-Matic Bridge — Locking design holds down the strings for hassle-free restringing, while the aluminium stopbar tailpiece contributes to the impressive resonance of the instrument.
- Bone Nut — Low-friction, traditional material enhances sustain and minimises unwanted tuning slips.
- Heritage-Branded Tuners — High-quality, proprietary machine heads allows for precise pitching and ensure decades of reliable operation.
- Custom Shop Case — Included with the Custom Core H-150; provides rock-solid protection and comes filled with plenty of case candy!
