Hi all,
This is my first post here so please bear with me...
I've been wanting a LP since I was a kid, and I always pictured myself getting a genuine USA LP standard (tobacco or bourbon burst) some day. I am now in the position to finally pull the trigger but I've been distracted by all the great reviews of Heritage guitars... specifically the H-150 as well as some of the bad press gibson has gotten over the last few years. I am now debating between a gibson LP standard and an H-150. From what I've read, the H-150 holds up well against gibson custom shop LPs, but I haven't found too much comparing them to a standard. Since both the LP standard and the H-150 can be had for $2500, I'm really choosing between these two models. Unfortunately, there are no Heritage guitars that I can try out locally, so I'm looking for input from the experts (you guys)
Has anyone here owned both? How does the Heritage compare? Seymour Duncan 59s vs burstbuckers? Is an H-150 really comparable to a custom shop gibson at a third of the price? If you had $2500 to spend on your first les paul, what would you buy?
Thanks for your input
