Materials: Solid highly figured AAA tiger maple top; natural Honduras mahogany neck and body; rosewood fingerboard

Notes: The H-150CM (Curly Maple) Classic is Heritage's tribute to the most coveted electric guitar in history, the legendary Les Paul Standard. Hand crafted in Gibson's historic Kalamazoo factory, the H-150 is produced by some of the actual builders who produced this history-making model.

This outstanding example is carved of spectacular AAA tiger flame maple, including the bound pickguard and headstock facing. She's been carefully maintained without pick, thumb or fingerboard wear, and shows just a few scattered lacquer dents here and there. A bonus upgrade is a pair of genuine Kent Armstrong humbucking pickups, a PAF in the neck position and an Alnico at the bridge, both individually handmade in the USA by Kent himself. Tone is warm and rich, with excellent sustain and feedback resistance. The neck profile is a gentle D, very easy in the palm, and the frets are freshly dressed with smooth low action. Here's a great opportunity to get true vintage tone, feel and look at a real player's price.

Setup: Trussrod tension and neck relief adjusted; bridge height adjusted; bridge compensation set; bridge wheels and tuners lubricated; fingerboard and bridge oiled; body and neck cleaned and hand polished.

Case: Original black deluxe Heritage fitted hardshell case with plush lining.
