Heritage H-575 Custom

1992 Heritage H-575 Custom

Tobacco Sunburst

Handbuilt in Kalamazoo by former Gibson artisans in the old Gibson plant. The Heritage H-575 Custom features a 16" Florentine cutaway body, parallel bracing, and fast 24 3/4" scale. Though similar in dimensions to the Gibson ES-175, the H-575 is built of all solid woods, unlike its laminate counterparts.

The guitar is in superb condition, with all original gold hardware. The guitar has been played so there maybe a minor scuff here or there, nothing noticeable. The finish is without cracks, buckle rash, or fingerboard wear.  Smooth low action that plays effortlessly. The solid tiger maple soundboard offers excellent sustain and feedback resistance. The 16" body is an easy to hold, on the lap or the strap guitar.
