Cryoman Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Yes. I own a Heritage 535 and it is excellent. As fine as my Gibson ES-339 (and my CS-336) in every regard. Made in the orginal Gibson Kalamazoo plant. A terrific guitar. Look at www.heritageownersclub.com for more. Cheers, Cryoma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewilyfool Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Cryoman.....one thing I just can't understand.....is why used Heritages are sooooooo low priced for resale. ???????? They seem to have all the quality of a Gibson....yet the resale is soooo much lower than their counteparts.....explanation>>>>???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryoman Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Marketing. Name brand recognition. Did I also mention marketing? Gibson is huge. Heritage is small and necessarily limited in numbers of guitars they want to build and fortunes they want to build... I don't need to poo-poo any Gibson to sing the praises of Heritage. These are guitars built in the original plant with a handful of the original Gibson veterans. I have several Gibsons and I have several Heritages. The Heritages are just fabulous and in many ways superior. So as not to make an advertisement on the Gibson site.... try both. Buy both. It's all good. Heritage is not going to put Gibson out of business..... Did I say marketing yet? Cheers, Cryoman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
