Laminated curly maple top and back pair with a solid maple rim to produce a tone that is nice and lively. Notes bloom with natural sustain while chords retain clarity and depth, making this a versatile platform for any play style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHRW Pickups and VIP Vari Phase Electronics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eLoaded with HRW Gold pickups, this guitar offers a rich and expressive voice. What sets this example apart is the Heritage VIP Vari Phase system, instead of fixed phase switching, the dual roller controls allow you to sweep between in phase and out of phase tones. This creates a wide range of usable textures from full humbucking warmth to thinner, cutting tones with unique character. The passive design keeps the signal pure with no need for batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlayability and Neck Feel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe one piece mahogany neck features a comfortable soft C profile with a 12 inch radius rosewood fingerboard. It feels familiar and broken in, offering smooth movement across all 22 frets. The shorter 24 3\/4 inch scale adds a slightly slinkier feel, making bends and vibrato effortless while maintaining strong note definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition and Real World Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThis is a true player grade instrument that has seen time in a working environment. There is moderate wear consistent with use in a gigging band, including numerous dings, dents, and scratches. The bridge and tailpiece have been replaced. All cosmetic wear is documented in the photo set. None of this detracts from the instrument’s structural integrity or performance. It remains a solid, reliable tool with serious capability, and plenty of gigs left to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAppointments and Included Case\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003eThe guitar includes a hardshell TKL case for protection and transport. This is a well appointed American made semi hollow with expanded tonal flexibility that goes far beyond standard designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear 2002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Type Semi hollow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Material Laminated curly maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Material Laminated curly maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim Material Solid curly maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Width 16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Length 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRim Thickness 1 5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBracing Solid center block with patch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF Holes Two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutaways Venetian\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Material One piece mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length 24 3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Shape Soft C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeadstock Pitch 17 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Material Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets 22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlays Mother of pearl dot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Radius 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Material Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width 1 11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFret Size .108 x .051 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTruss Rod Single action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup HRW Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup HRW Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls Two volume two tone VIP system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitching One Switchcraft toggle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePots CTS 500K\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitors Vishay Roederstein 0.022uF 250V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware Color Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Replaced tuneomatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTailpiece Replaced tailpiece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuning Machines Grover Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard Polished ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish High gloss nitrocellulose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding Single cream binding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Hardshell TKL included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis electric guitar ships fully insured with signature required.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Heritage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45525777350847,"sku":"960658","price":2199.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/5804\/files\/Pre_Owned_The_Heritage_H535-69b992e03a07f_7aab5e3d-a3b5-4c02-a431-a19c986665f4.jpg?v=1776729681","url":"https:\/\/fivestarguitars.com\/products\/pre-owned-the-heritage-h535-dark-almond-sunburst-with-hardshell-case","provider":"Five Star Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
