Heritage Guitar - Standard II Collection H-530 Ebony

In this Ebony finish, the H-530 adopts a sober aesthetic that highlights its classic lines and fully hollow-body construction. This design plays a decisive role in its sonic behaviour, promoting natural resonance and a rapid response to attack. The instrument reacts immediately to playing, with a direct feel and faithful reproduction of nuances.

The laminated flamed maple body maintains good signal clarity while allowing the notes to develop with fullness. This structure provides an interesting balance between precision and openness, with a natural projection that can be exploited in a variety of contexts, from clean playing to slightly saturated registers.

The Heritage Custom Shop 225 Standard P90 pickups provide a distinctive, expressive sound signature. Designed and wound in-house, they offer a clean response with a strong midrange and well-defined treble. Their behaviour brings out the character of the guitar, with an ability to translate variations in playing intensity without smoothing the signal. This approach maintains good articulation, even in the busiest passages.

The mahogany neck, with its '60s C-profile, ensures a natural, even grip. Combined with a rosewood fingerboard, it ensures stable playing comfort throughout the neck. The whole set is made in the historic Parsons Street workshop, with particular attention paid to the overall coherence of the instrument and its performance in real-life situations.
