For guitar aficionados who cherish the timeless elegance of classic semi-hollowbody designs, the Heritage H-535 Custom Factory Special is a masterpiece that beckons. Crafted from an all-mahogany body, top, and neck, this instrument radiates the warm, vintage-inspired tones that have made it a favorite among musicians seeking rich midrange sounds. Every aspect of the H-535 is engineered for exceptional performance. The silky 22-fret rosewood fingerboard invites your fingers to glide effortlessly, while the 24.75-inch scale length offers a familiar and comfortable playing experience. The locking Tune-o-matic bridge and tailpiece not only enhance tuning stability but also contribute to the guitar's overall sustain and resonance. At the heart of the H-535 are Heritage’s renowned 225 Classic pickups, which unlock a vast palette of tonal possibilities. Whether you're crafting soulful blues melodies or unleashing powerful rock anthems, this guitar is versatile enough to handle it all with finesse. Completing the H-535’s allure is its classic four-knob layout, paired with a 3-position toggle switch on the top, empowering you to explore an expansive range of sounds and truly define your own sonic signature.

Whether you’re looking for your first semi-hollowbody guitar or adding to your already existing collection, the H-535 Custom Factory Special offers true vintage styling — no time machine needed. The decades of handcrafted artisanal experience at Heritage went into constructing these curly maple top, back, and sides to stunning perfection, offering a bold, powerful, bright, and snappy sound from the first pick attack. The mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, another classic tonewood pairing, blends a touch of warmth and midrange into the mix, culminating in a harmonically rich auditory experience. A rounded ‘60s style neck shape provides a comfortable feel that promotes all-night playtime. To top it off, classic nitrocellulose lacquer is sprayed to give it that fresh, off-the-wall look and allows the wood to vibrate and breathe freely, further enhancing the already stellar tone that will only get better with age.

PAF-flavored 225 Classic humbuckers

The Heritage H-535 Custom Factory Special is equipped with a set of Custom Shop 225 Classic humbuckers. Designed by Heritage’s head of guitar research and development, Edwin Wilson, and wound in-house, these pickups perfectly capture vintage-inspired PAF-style tones. Guitarists at Sweetwater have found the 225 Classic pickups to be the ideal solution for those craving that classic PAF sound. Whether you plug into a vintage tube combo or a modern high-gain amplifier, these pickups deliver exceptional performance.

Heritage H-535 Custom Factory Spec Features:

Curly maple top, back, and sides offer classic tone styling with striking good looks

Walnut-finished mahogany neck with '60s profile promotes comfortable playability across the entire neck

Rosewood fingerboard has deep, rich harmonic content

Traditionally styled 12-in. fingerboard radius is comfortable for playing chords near the nut and solo runs with big bends up the fingerboard

Locking Tune-o-matic bridge anchors in place to allow better string vibration throughout the entire body — and stays put between string changes

225 Classic pickups reproduce classic PAF-style sounds and articulation

Nitrocellulose lacquer finish replicates the look and feel of a classic instrument

Handcrafted in Kalamazoo, MI
