  1. This is a really nice 535. It's in pretty much perfect condition, as is the case, other than two tiny marks on the top of the guitar which I've tried to highlight in the photos. The guitar was a custom order from the Custom Shop and was ordered with Seymour Duncan 59s but they really didn't suit the guitar so a pair of Seymour Duncan Seth Lovers were installed which is the pickup that Heritage installs on virtually all of its guitars now. The Seth Lovers are probably the best pickups I have ever had in a semi, just a perfect match. The tuners are, as far as I am aware, Grover 18:1 and the bridge and stop tail are both Tonepros. The colour is really difficult to describe; Heritage describe it as Vintage Sunburst but it is much lighter than the standard dark sunburst. Pretty close to a Gibson Larry Carlton 335. It looks different in every light. The guitar is set up beautifully and I have been using 11-50 but last time I re-strung I tried 10s and they work really well too. The certificate is blank as it was a custom order. I am having serious problems with my ears and am having to get hearings aids so have been told that I need to minimise any sort of noise or I will lose my hearing completely. In light of this I am looking for an acoustic. Would be very happy to trade for an acoustic, with or without a pickup, but definitely not a jumbo or a dreadnought. Will consider an O, OO, OOO or an OM or anything similar. Ideally spruce/rosewood but have an open mind although not a big fan of cedar. Please let me know if you want more photos, I have loads on Imgur. Looking for £1750 for a cash sale or would value it around the £2000 mark for a trade for an acoustic. I am based in Cambridgeshire but would be happy to ship if that was necessary.
  2. This is a really superb guitar and I wouldn't be selling it were it not for the fact that I have found something I really want to buy. This is essentially an aged single pickup ES175. The pickup is a Seth Lover (aged cover) and sounds superb. The guitar is a 2017 model and comes with the original case (mint) along with certificate, vintage style strap and truss rod tool. The guitar is set up with Thomastik Infeld BeBop 13-53 roundwound strings and the action is just superb. The strings feel more like 11s. I'll let the photos do the talking but please let me know if you need any specific photos, happy to take more. The images in the link include some close-up shots of the areas that have been aged so its worth clicking on the image and then you get an expanded view and more detail. I'm asking £700 which is a silly price for the guitar based on the fact that I really need a quick sale. Really happy for anyone to come and try the guitar (I'm in Cambridgeshire) or I can ship if necessary. Few photos below and a link to my Imgur page where there are loads: https://imgur.com/a/PZORde3
