    NGD

    Had an itch for a hollowbody with P90s, so I scratched.
    New used guitar day to me tomorrow. Been looking at 530s for over a year. Been watching this one for months. Time came where I had to act. Price was right and I have not seen another quite this shading of color. Even the back is nice.

    And oh, it's getting a Bigsby.

    THAT IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!

    Had a Casino back in 2012 for a bit. Loved the tone, but couldn’t bond with the neck width, neck thickness and neck join location. Returned it. Considered a 330 that would address some of those items but they are not cheap. Then I realized I really wanted would be a 330L (neck join).
    Next I remembered Heritage. Took a look and yep, that checks the boxes. Been looking seriously since 2016, but lost my job. Recently employed, I have been watching this one for a few months. Got the Reverb notice someone made an offer. I reached out to the seller and let him know if he didn’t like the offer, I was interested.

    Long story short, it arrived today at work. I wasn’t there as the truck was at the mechanics. I’ll get to inbox it tomorrow. Having been looking at these for a while, this is none of the typical Heritage sunburst shadings, and I really liked and wanted this one. Also the price was quite competitive against all the other used ones.

    That's awesome! I like the neck joint. I have an ES-225 and find the 14th fret neck joint to be a little restrictive.

    You'll soon be addicted to Heritage guitars.

    Ordered the Bigsby today for it. (It’s getting a B12 with Callahan upgrades). I should finally get some time with it tomorrow night. That should be it for me this year. That’s 3 acquisitions.

    It's only March, the third month. One acquisition per month sounds about right.
