The Heritage D'Angelico II 1995 circa Natural

Super rare...only a couple made...only natural 16" I am aware of, Heritage built D'Angelico guitar. This thing is the bomb. Heritage was asked to ghost build a prototype set of guitars for a rebirth of the D'Angelico guitar brand in the mid 1990s. Only a few were built and this is the second 16" I have seen--1037 was found last year for sale in Britain. She had a burst finish and sold for over $6500 according to the owner. This one is in very good condition for the collector--her worst collector flaws would be the binding has check marks next to the frets in many locations. The binding is not broken and you really can't feel the checks, but they are visible. I didn't let it stop me when I found her as I knew she was nearly impossible to find again. Her natural finish is aging nicely--there is one small belt mark on the back and photographed. Her frets and neck are in great shape. She is tap tuned and sounds amazing! I did have a second pickguards built for her, which she is pictured with, but she does have the original, too. The original shows some age, but is not cracked and will be included. The label is signed by the four original owners of The Heritage--that will never happen again. Ohsc. Due to scams, swapped parts, and other bad behavior, I no longer accept returns but will go above and beyond to communicate by phone, video, capture extra photos or create a video to review for the serious buyer. I will ask the buyer to pay actual shipping to the lower 48.  Reverb requires a price in the shipping entry but I will only ask you to pay what UPS charges me via reverb.  I do ask that UPS professionally boxes the guitar.  It only costs $33 but it greatly reduces any potential rejection of damage due to shipping.  Really cheap insurance!
