Congrats Russell! I'm afraid I may have helped create a monster! They are both beautiful guitars! I have a Limited Edition Heritage Custom Shop H137 coming sometime after they reopen the factory.

The differences so far are: 1. The volume and tone knobs are different. The Cherry one has bell knobs while the Faded Cherry one has round ones. 2. The strap buttons are different. The Cherry one has more vinage buttons, while the Faded one doesn't. 3. There is a binding cap on the back of the neck heal on the Faded one, but not on the Cherry one. 4. I think the nuts are different, but I need to check again.

Yes, the color is very orange. I could only find one other on the internet like it. Both were 2017's. Also, there is a polish ebony pickguard included! Real ebony.

I'll make some more comparison pictures tomorrow, especially to show the flame in the maple. I've become hooked on Heritage!

Have you tried their 150? 137? 575??? Enjoy and play in good health.

Very nice looking guitar you have there! Enjoy! I have looked at Heritage here and there and hopefully may end up with one someday.

I’ve not tried any others. I understand that they are great as well. The 7 or 8 models here are very good examples of the craftsmanship at 225 Parsons St.
If you're not particular about neck dimensions, you'll find a treasure trove out there.

Congrats on another great one. I was just playing mine through my Therapy this evening. Big smiles while getting some great classic rock tones, and with the twist of a dial and a flip of a switch some great classic RnB tones. Enjoy.

Congrats Russell she’s a beauty! Hey, I do what I can. All of this really started at Z-Fest. You got up on the stage and started playing "The Trill is Gone". I knew that guitar had the "sound"! Then, both Mike and Dave bought Heritages and I had to get one.... then two! lol

I was going to make some more pictures yesterday, but it was bright enough outside because of cloud cover. I get some more comparisons this weekend.
