"Tone That Resonates with Soul The H-535 is engineered for players who crave a sound that’s as expressive as their playing. It’s all about warm, full-bodied tones that can whisper sweet nothings one moment and roar with authority the next. Seymour Duncan '59 Humbuckers: At the heart of the H-535 are a pair of iconic Seymour Duncan '59s. These pickups are your ticket to vintage PAF tones, delivering sweet sustain at the bridge and warm, articulate sound at the neck. Solid Center Block Construction: Say goodbye to unwanted feedback. The solid maple center block tames the wild tendencies of a fully hollow body, giving you incredible control and sustain even at high volumes. You get the airy resonance of a semi-hollow without the untamed squeal. Premium Electronics: Under the hood, you’ll find CTS pots and Orange Drop capacitors, ensuring your signal path is clean and your tone controls are responsive. Roll back the volume for smoky, clean textures or crank it for raw, powerful saturation. Playability That Feels Like Home Every inch of the H-535 is designed for comfort and speed, making it feel like an old friend from the very first chord. This guitar practically begs to be played for hours on end. Comfortable Mahogany Neck: The one-piece mahogany neck has a familiar feel that sits perfectly in your hand. Paired with a 24.75" scale length, it makes bending strings and chording up and down the neck feel effortless. Elegant Rosewood Fretboard: The smooth rosewood fretboard is bound and features 22 perfectly Plek’d frets. This high-tech fret-leveling process guarantees buttery-smooth action and flawless intonation right out of the box, so your fingers can fly without hitting any speed bumps. Rock-Solid Hardware: With a TonePros locking bridge and stop bar, your tuning stability is locked down tight. From subtle vibrato to aggressive string bends, this guitar stays in tune, letting you focus on your performance." The Heritage Standard H-535 is the ultimate do-it-all guitar, blending vintage soul with modern reliability. It’s a reliable partner that’s ready for any musical journey, backed by a legacy of American craftsmanship. Plus, it comes with a hardshell case to protect your investment." I purchased this guitar brand new from a local dealer and it's never left my environmentally controlled studio. I just have too many so selling much of my collection. This guitar has no blemishes, just light swirls and pick marks on the pickgruard as usual as they get played and handled in the store. Anything in the pics is a reflection of something else. It really is as close to mint condition as a "used" guitar can come. Comes with OHSC.
