Heritage Standard H-530 Hollow Body Electric Guitar, Ebony Finish, Limited
Introducing the Heritage Standard H-530 Hollow Body Electric Guitar, Limited Ebony Finish – a masterfully crafted instrument that combines simplicity and elegance. As the lightest guitar in the Heritage lineup, the H-530 focuses on delivering outstanding performance and playability without unnecessary distractions. This limited run in Ebony features an antiquing yellow topcoat that give the binding a beautiful, aged look.Â
Constructed with a laminated maple top and body, this fully hollow, double cutaway guitar shares some characteristics with the H-535 model. However, the H-530 sets itself apart with its open construction and absence of a full center block, which allows for a natural resonance and unique tonal qualities.
One of the standout features of the H-530 is its versatility in terms of tonal range. Equipped with Lollar P-90 pickups, this thinline hollow body produces warm, growling tones that vintage enthusiasts will find irresistible. The guitar’s ability to adapt to various styles, such as jazz and rock, makes it a valuable addition to any musician’s collection.
The value of a fully hollow guitar, like the H-530, over a semi-hollow guitar lies in its unique tonal properties and resonance. A full hollow body construction produces a more open, acoustic-like tone with greater sustain and a distinctively airy quality. This makes the H-530 ideal for those who seek an instrument that can deliver warm, nuanced sounds while still offering the flexibility to handle a range of playing styles.
Featuring a genuine mahogany neck with a standard profile, and a rosewood fretboard with a 12″ radius, the H-530 offers exceptional playability. The 22 medium/jumbo Jescar frets and bone nut ensure a smooth playing experience, while the nickel hardware and black top hat control knobs provide a touch of refined style.
The H-530’s electronics include CTS 500K potentiometers, Vishay .022uF capacitors, a Switchcraft toggle switch, and a Pure Tone input jack, all of which contribute to the guitar’s superior tonal fidelity. The locking bridge and trapeze tailpiece further enhance the instrument’s stability and tuning reliability. Heritage branded tuners and GHS Boomers 10-46 strings round out the impressive list of features that make the H-530 a top choice for discerning guitarists.
The Heritage Standard H-530 Hollow Body Electric Guitar, Limited Ebony Finish, offers an exceptional combination of elegant simplicity, playability, and tonal versatility. Its fully hollow construction sets it apart from semi-hollow alternatives, providing a unique sound that appeals to a wide range of musicians. This expertly crafted instrument is an excellent choice for those who value substance, performance, and adaptability in their guitars.
