Description

Celebrated as an icon and time-honored classic, the Heritage Core Collection H-150 delivers the energy and excellence unique to guitars from the late ’50s.

The Heritage Core Collection H-150 guitar is crafted in our factory at 225 Parsons Street, Kalamazoo, and features the finest curly maple top and an ultra-lightweight genuine mahogany back with Weight Relief. A nitrocellulose finish with vintage gloss adds a subtle shine and velvety smooth feel to this guitar, and ages beautifully over time. With a redesigned carve top, 17° headstock and 4.5° neck angle, the Core Collection H-150 is optimized for excellent playability.

The guitar also marks the debut of our signature 225 Classic humbuckers. Designed by Edwin Wilson, and wound in-house to our strictest standards, these vintage-inspired pickups are tuned specifically for the Heritage Core Collection H-150 and excel tremendously in both clean and overdriven tones, making them perfect for any music genre.

Other notable features include a ‘50s C-shaped neck profile that’s truly comfortable on the hands, and a locking bridge with aluminum stopbar tailpiece for increased sustain and resonance. Finer touches to this guitar include a locking Tune-O-Matic bridge. The headstock has a holly veneer and carries the ‘Heritage’ logo with a Twin Arrow inlay. Proprietary 3×3 tuners come laser-etched with our ‘Heritage’ logo.

The Heritage Core Collection H-150 is available in Midnight Blue color, with the option for an Artisan Aged finish. It comes in a newly-designed hardshell case, with a certificate of authenticity and case candies included.
