All the way from Poland…just arrived yesterday!!!

Took forever to get here!!! Customs delays in Poland, customs delays in USA….I’m very impatient!!! Lol!!!

A 1991 Heritage MARK SLAUGHTER H150 LE.

#41 of 50
One piece Honduran mahogany body
One piece Honduran mahogany neck
Bookmatched Chevron flame maple top
Dark, streaky, bound Indian rosewood board with Pearl Blocks
9lbs, 3ozs.
60s slim taper style neck carve.
Stinger

UPGRADES….
TonePros locking bridge and tailpiece
Locking Grover tuners
Gibson style poker chip
Dark Amber speed knobs
Mojotone PIO capacitors
Custom wound pickups by Rob Doolittle Kalamazoo Guitar Company.

I pulled the original Schaller humbuckers. I didn’t need to try them. Lol. I also pulled the original Schaller top load tailpiece and roller bridge. I like TonePros much better. In that era Heritage used cheap Mylar capacitors, so replacing those was also a no brainer.

When I went to FedEx to pick it up, I grabbed the box and the case was literally FLOPPING around in the box!!! No bubble wrap, no packing!!!!

I opened it at FedEx. I was almost certain that the headstock was gonna be broke. The only thing that was broke was the switch tip!!!! Lucky??!!! OMFG!!!!! If he hadn’t slacked the strings, I’m sure there would have been a break…although, the guitar did fit very snug in the case…probably a good thing!!!!

It’s in great condition for 32 years old! A few small dings in the top and back. No cracks. Some light nitro checking.

A beautiful, super rare, toneful and great playing golden era Heritage guitar!

Cool guitar! Congrats! If that guitar could only tell you about the round trip! :unsure:
 
Nice!! Schaller humbuckers? Man I didn't even know they made those, lol
 
A lot of my older Kramers came with Schaller humbuckers, and they sound killer to me. Not sure if it's the same model, mine have a little tag that says "bridge" or "neck," date, but no model name, with gold base plates (I think these are retroactively called "golden 50's" maybe?) or the 2-in-1 with allen screw poles (higher output). Those plain no-model-name ones measure about 9k but are higher output than you might expect from that measurement... I'd consider them at least as good as an equivalent Duncan or Dimarzio.
