Re: Heritage 150 neck profile
I have a heritage H-150 CM and I would say that the profile is closer to the 59 than anything. It's substantial in your hand but is not "bulky" by any means, and there are abolutely no signs of thin neck hand fatigue even after all day wood shedding sessions.

Re: Heritage 150 neck profile
Hmmm..I had a 1995 H150 that I sold last fall and the neck prof was def not as big as the 50's prof on my current Gibson LP STD. It was closer to the profile my Firebird and Epi LP STD+ have...which is like a 60s profile.
Perhaps Heritage has changed the stock profile? or the dealer ordered the smaller prof way back when..I don't know ? :shrug :
Nice guitars from Heritage. I would just recommend trashing the schaller bridge and get a Tonepros or other TOM. They DO affect tone/sustain (negatively)

Re: Heritage 150 neck profile
To Westley, Thin neck hand fatigue is what happens when you play a guitar with "too slim" a neck profile and it causes your fretting hand to get tired in a short period of time. I find that Ibanez necks have a habit of doing this to alot of people since they are notoriously paper thin.

Re: Heritage 150 neck profile
Dear SwedeNuck...hello and thank you very much for your wisdom and insights! Your comments explaining "thin neck hand fatigue" make total sense to me. I had a 1999 Fender American Standard strat with a very thin neck. After playing about 30 to 45 minutes my fretting hand would virtuaklly always get tired and now I know why.
My two Heritage guitars have a much fuller and very comfortable neck profile, in which I can play all day and almost never get tired.
SwedeNuck, thanks again.
Sincerely,
Westley
