Heritage H-575 SSB Model Arch Top Hollow Body Electric Guitar (1998), made in Kalamazoo, Michigan, sunburst finish, laminated maple body, mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, original black tolex hard shell case.
 
Overall length is 41 1/2 in. (105.4 cm.), 15 3/4 in. (40 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 2 5/8 in. (6.7 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 3/4 in. (629 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5/8 in. (41 mm.). The H-575 is Heritage guitar company's take on the Gibson ES-175, the classic working man's 16" arch top electric. The guitar is a bit sleeker and vaguely modern looking than its Kalamazoo ancestor but generally is a very similar design, with the same handling characteristics and sonic personality. The "snakehead' headstock, slimmer pickguard and jack-in-the-endpin fitting are the most notable differences. This one has some minor dings and dents overall but has apparently not been played too much over the past 20 years. There is one small melt mark on the back of the neck behind the 19th fret, otherwise it shows very little wear at all. The neck pickup ring has a small repair in the middle. This is an excellent playing and sounding instrument and a very fine gigging "jazz box". Includes the original HSC. Excellent + Condition.
