This is a 1998 Heritage H-535, a proper semi-hollow built in Kalamazoo and packed with character. It’s a beautiful-sounding guitar that plays really well and has that unmistakable broken-in feel you only get from years of honest use.
Tonally, it sits right where you’d want a great 335-style guitar to be — warm, open and articulate, with plenty of depth and a lovely woody response. Acoustically resonant, plugged-in it’s rich and expressive, making it a great choice for blues, jazz, soul or classic rock.
Built by Heritage Guitars, this one has developed a genuinely lovely vintage patina rather than being kept as a case queen.
Supplied with a non-original hardcase.

Good overall condition with visible player wear, exactly as you’d expect from a guitar of this age. There is noticeable wear on the back of the neck and on the body where the arm rests, giving it a really nice vintage look and feel. Frets show some wear but still have plenty of life left, and the guitar plays great from top to bottom. No issues structurally — just honest, well-earned character.
