Heritage Artisan Aged Custom Core H-150 Electric Guitar - Dark Cherry Sunburst

Heritage Custom Core H-150 Electric Guitar - Dark Cherry Sunburst

Stepping out of the storied factory at 225 Parsons Street in Kalamazoo, the Heritage Custom Core H-150 is a love letter to the golden era of rock 'n' roll, masterfully aged to feel like a well-loved veteran the moment you sling it over your shoulder. Our master artisans have given this beauty an intricate, played-in look that perfectly complements its pedigree. You're looking at a guitar crafted from the finest tonewoods: an ultra-lightweight genuine mahogany body and a stunning, premium curly maple top. This classic pairing is the foundation of legendary tone, giving you warmth, resonance, and that famous snap and clarity. It’s all wrapped in an Aged Vintage Gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish that lets the wood breathe and will continue to age gracefully, adding to its vintage mojo over time.

The mahogany neck is carved into a comfortable '50s C profile, making it a dream for chording and lead work alike, perfectly scaled at $24.75"$ with a smooth Rosewood fretboard. But the heart of this beast lies in its brand-new, proprietary voice: a pair of Heritage Custom 225 Classic Humbuckers. Designed in-house by the legendary Edwin Wilson, these pickups are wound to vintage specs and tuned specifically for the H-150. They absolutely sing, whether you're chasing sparkling cleans or the thick, creamy overdrive that defined countless blues and rock anthems—a tone famously favored by players like Joe Bonamassa when he picks up this style of single-cut axe.

This isn't just a guitar; it's a piece of history with modern reliability. With a redesigned carve top, 17° headstock angle, and a locking Tune-O-Matic bridge with an aluminum stopbar tailpiece, every detail is optimized for incredible playability and maximum sustain. The guitar ships in a newly-designed hardshell case, making sure this heirloom-quality instrument is protected for years to come. This H-150 has the soul of a vintage icon and the flawless execution of a modern Custom Core instrument.
