Heritage Custom Shop H-555 Electric Guitar, Left-Handed

Combining superior craftsmanship, premium materials, and unparalleled playability, the Heritage Custom Shop Core Collection H-555 is a masterpiece designed to inspire. Bold, refined, and crafted for excellence, this guitar takes class to an aesthetic level, while maintaining exceptional tone and playability.

Crafted at the iconic 225 Parsons Street factory in Kalamazoo, the Core Collection H-555 is built with the finest materials, including a laminated, highly figured curly maple (top and back) with solid curly maple sides. This carefully selected tonewood combination delivers a perfect balance of warmth, clarity, and resonance. The guitar's semi-hollow construction is complemented by a comfortable '50s C-shaped neck profile and elegant block inlays, ensuring effortless playability with a vintage feel.

At the heart of the H-555 are the Heritage Custom Shop 225 Hot Classic Humbuckers, designed and wound in-house to exacting standards. These pickups provide a rich, dynamic sound with added punch and articulation, perfectly suited for clean tones and overdriven settings. The guitar also features a Tune-O-Matic bridge and an aluminum stopbar tailpiece, enhancing sustain and resonance while ensuring precise intonation.

Every detail of the H-555 has been meticulously crafted to captivate the eye and inspire the player. Multi-ply binding adorns the body, headstock, and pickguard, adding a touch of refined elegance, while gold hardware lends timeless sophistication. The iconic kite… read more inlay on the headstock and laser-etched Heritage tuners further showcase the instrument's premium design.

The H-555 is finished in a nitrocellulose vintage gloss which develops a unique character as it gracefully ages over time. For players seeking an authentically worn aesthetic, the Artisan Aged option offers a fully hand-finished patina that exudes the charm of a well-loved instrument.

The Heritage Core Collection H-555 comes protected in a premium Heritage Custom Shop hard case, ensuring it remains an heirloom-quality instrument for years to come.
