Heritage Standard H-530 Hollowbody Guitar, Rosewood Fretboard, Antique Natural

Player's Perspective

We're stoked to tell you that these Heritage guitars really are the real deal. Their motto is "the world's finest American-made musical instruments" and we cannot find any reason to refute that at all. The company was started by employees formerly of the custom shop at the "Big G" who wanted to continue the tradition of handmade, high-quality instruments from the olden days.

This is a fully hollowbody offering in their lineup and comes stocked with some awesome Lollar P90s that provide an airy and crisp tone while still being full and having plenty of warmth. The H-530 instantly became a shop favorite. The cleans on this guitar sound magical. The scooped out midrange from the hollowbody design and the sparkle of the P90 pickups are wonderfully complementary of one another and give this guitar a fantastic vintage sound.

The build quality, as with every Heritage we've come across so far, is absolutely stellar. The guitar has absolutely zero shortcomings. Playability and tone are both impressive, all in a lightweight and extremely comfortable package.

Details

The H-530 is the lightest guitar in our lineup and uses the same laminate maple rim set as its H-535 sibling. An open construction, Lollar P-90 pickups and lack of a full center block are hallmarks of this thinline guitar and exactly what jazz and rock players love.

Made to Perform - The H-530 comes with an amazing yet familiar feel, and is perfectly suitable for jazz, rock and everything in between.

Lollar P-90s - Scatter wound with degaussed Alnico 5 bar magnets, these pickups provide warmth, growl and an instantly recognizable vintage guitar tone.

Total Acoustic Resonance This fine instrument's fully hollow, double cutaway body construction unlocks plenty of acoustic tone and a fast, punchy attack.
