I always had a "someday" watch in mind for when I retire. That thought is completely gone now as the Heritage H35 is going to be my retirement gift to myself in a couple years.
Jonathan, this guitar in your hands is pure joy to my ears. Your playing and tasteful selection of music for these demos is unparalleled on RUclips. You have been the final word on my last few purchases.
I'm grateful that you provide such wonderful detailed reviews.
Thank you Charlie.. I’m just glad these videos were helpful.✌️❤️

Don't do this to me Jonathan! 😂 This is one of my dream guitars and WAYYY above what I can afford
lol!!! i know right???
Oh ya Jonathan..... Pure rock 'N' roll. Super tones. Super playing. Jonathon is a rock band in this video. Sounds great.
Thank you Ron! 🤓
I sold my 335 1976 mdl, but I have 29 more guitars. Hi Jonathan. I also had a heritage 175 mdl. There’s that 335 sound.
Excellent playing...
29!!! oh man...you got it bad! lol
Killer playing! I just picked one up and can’t wait for it to arrive!
Thanks!
I played one of these and a Gibson 335 and just got my Heritage today. This was one of my 2 dream guitars, the other being a American Fender Strat.
✌❤
I just learned Dave Greenfield has passed away due to COVID 19.
Dave was the masterful keyboardist with The Stranglers and I for one will dearly miss him.
oh no!!!
Nice brother! Reminds me of some of the Steely Dan tones. Sounds great. I wouldn't mind one! Blessings
Thank you kindly!
I bought my first Semi Hollow about 4 months ago, an OE30 OS. I wasnt sure I would take to it, but after a few days I really started to enjoy it. That Heritage just sounds amazing, of course you make everything sound amazing Jonathon!
cool!!! Thanks brother! ✌❤
I looove Heritage guitars..I have a 93 H-535 brown burst. But I cant play it like you do. :)
Thank you ✌♥
i have 1997 heritage 535. they are excellent guitars with a very nice tone.
yes...kinda expensive...if only they could make it a tad affordable! ✌❤
great video, beautiful playing , gorgeous guitar
Thank you ✌️❤️
I think I'm going to buy one this weekend
Cool go for it!! ✌️❤️
Thanks for this review Jonathan. Been looking at Heritages for some time now. Great job
No problem! ✌❤
I have a beautiful 2015 Sunburst I bought from Jay Wolfe in Jupiter, FL. The guitar is such fun to play and screams!
cool!!! you still have it?
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I do. It's in storage at the moment due to traveling right now for my job. I haven't been able to play it for about 2 years. Also, your review of the HB CLD 41SE inspired me to buy one for my son. It arrived last week and he absolutely loves it, so big thanks to you and your review!
Your vibrato in the upper bends is stellar.
Thanks!
Beautiful Guitar Jonathan and Beautiful Playing ❤🎸 take care Brother!
Thanks, you too! Ciao!! ✌❤
Great demo of the tones especially the clean ones!!!
Thank you Mick ✌️❤️
That is one kick ass solo, bro'! And a great sounding tone as well. I am now a subscriber.
Thank you!! And welcome to the channel!!✌️❤️
Sounds pretty good. Keep rocking Jonathan love the videos!👍👍😎
Thank you mike ✌️❤️
🎶👏👏👏!!!!! 🎶🎸👍👍👍!!! Excellent tool !!! But I can only dream of this, it remains to be happy for those who play it. In principle, this is a tool for a professional, but for lovers like me, there are quite affordable ones, and it's easier, and they also please no worse. For example, my cheap Ibanez also gives me a lot of joy and pleasure. Thanks Jonathan, for the informative review, as always he was great! 🙏🤝👋
Great video even better playing !
Thank you Brian ✌️❤️
That guitar is really pretty. And has a slightly more sparkling sound as you play than I might have expected from a semi-hollow bodied guitar. Thank you once again for answering the questions we all have. One thing I would like to know is how the tone cleans up at low gain (the effect on tone etc) because I always find with 335 style guitars that the lower you wind the guitar's volume, the less precision you get in the tone controls - maybe it's me! However it would be great to know what you thought. That's the main thing that has kept me away from semi-hollow bodied guitars all these years, which considering the type of music I write surprises me quite a lot. Once again thank you Jonathan for the amazing fluidity of your playing, every guitar shines in your hands, but you sure know how to show us what they can do - I salute you!
Yea...maybe just get a treble bleed circuitry installed...There's none installed in this guitar so yea..the tone kinda sound slight dark as you turn down the volume. ✌❤
Beautiful guitar!!! I think they're still built in the original Gibson factory in Kalamazoo Michigan.
Yes they still are Chuck ✌❤
Excellent demo.
Thank you ✌️❤️
Great guitar! That's the first time I ever saw you stop to retune in a video. Lol
oh no!!!! I let that in!!! lol
lol new strings...
Hi Jonathan, thanks for another good demo and review. A red 335 makes me think of Alvin Lee shredding at Woodstock 69 on his song I'm going home. While a bluesman, Alvin was much influenced by jazz. On my side I have a red 335 made by Tokai, an ES162 (€1600). It was slightly cheaper than the Heritage, still expensive but worth any penny. The Tokai stock pickups sound very close to the Seth Lovers. There are Seth Lovers in the Eastman T59v which sound so pure and clean like the Heritage 535 (€1600). On the cheaper side (still €900) , the Ibanez AS153 is still an excellent 335 clone with very jazzy pickups Ibanez S58. The Ibanez AS93 is another very good 335 clone in the more affordable range of €500, with higher output pickups S58custom, still beautiful build and finish.
Yes..the Ibanez semi solids are really nice!
Alvin Lee put down his Gibson for Heritage his last years.
Ciao Jon, the guitar is so beauty!unfortunately never tried one 😥 but it looks very comfortable to play specially for the 12'' Radius. Thanks for sharing!god bless
Prego!!Ciao! ✌❤
Very nice guitar. Heritage, Is this the company that was set up by ex Gibson employees? If so I can see why they are not cheap, so long as they hold their value, I would consider buying one if I was in the market for a high end guitar. I think the Seymour Duncan Seth Lovers use an AlNiCo II magnet, regarded as giving a jazzy/blues tone. If you have the cash and they hold their value it would be well worth considering. These days it appears cheap guitars of this world have got much better and with a few upgrades you can have a great guitar, however the resale values are abysmal. I bought the Harley Benton equivalent of the 335, upgraded pickups and tuners and now have a great playing, looking sounding guitar. I’ve not compared it to anything else other than an Eastman guitar many years ago. The Eastman I demoed was the best guitar I’ve ever played, shame I could not afford it at the time - it was also stunning with impeccable workmanship. I’ve never played a Gibson of any shape or form, but I would love to try one, especially a 335. Can you do another demo of this guitar playing clean jazz/blues in a mix, I think this is where this guitar shines the most. Thank you Jonathan for this great video.
Thank you Denis...wont be doing another video for this guitar unless the guitar stays put in the house...lol
Jonathan Koh I thought as much, I would try out a few more 335 style guitars if you get the opportunity. I love mine it sits well on my lap when sitting down, nice light balanced weight. The sustain is great too. You seem to excel on G & L’s the most, they suit your style. I’m not sure what to get next? I might get a cheap Strat type guitar and mod it to my taste?
fantastic playing!
Thank you ✌️❤️
what a gorgeous guitar
yes it aint it?
WOW ! 👏👏👏
Thank you! 😃
Hi Jonathan! Beautiful guitar and nice playing, I especially liked the funky part around 08:00.
I only have Fenders and one Greco Les Paul from Japan. Is Derek's Guitar Shop still around in Singapore? I once bought a vintage Yamaha FG-210 (made in Japan) there to bring it back to Europe!
You n your family...stay safe! 👍
Thank you !!!! you too! ✌❤
sounds amazing !!!
Thank you Ben!🤓
Beautiful guitar.
aye!
A very good Review , thanks ! Looking and Sounds good .....to.
Thank you ✌️❤️
Sweet guitar and sweet music. Double doses sweetness.
Thank you✌️❤️
In your opinion, do you like this guitar more than the 335? Great playing, as always!!
Nothing beats a 335! This came close though ✌️❤️
Wonderful playing and excellent demo, you got beautiful sounds from that guitar. I have an Eastman T386 in cherry red, same as this Heritage. I’m wondering if you have tried or demoed any Eastman?
Thank you and no I have not ✌️❤️
Love your reviews man!!
Thank you ✌️❤️
Love the red, a beautiful guitar
Yea..i'm a sucker for red! 😜
Hey...thanks for featuring a hollow body. Thank you
Any time!
Jonathan could make a broom with 6 strings sound awesome!!!
lol!!! no!!
Love the Heritage H-535
It's sound great with the Seth Lovers pickups. I really like the Maple Red Finish.
I wish I could afford it.
Thank you for sharing this.
Jonathan that Heritage sure is beautiful and you play it Great. I have a question that's been buggin me for awhile. I'm sure you can help. On your string bending video, I love the sound or tone you get, what I want to know is, is that a foot pedal or amp/foot pedal combination or coming from the guitar and your playing technique? I hear it even when you don't bend a note but just hit a straight note. Can you help?
dont know which particular thing that you are hearing. I mostly have delay and reverb on my chain of effects ✌❤
One of the best guitars I own. I have the h150 too, but it's not as good as the 535 tbh. 535 is just a lovely players guitar.
✌♥
Verry cool Licks in Soloplaying. Amazing Sound. Last , you as Player. Triple Skills.
Thank you✌️❤️
Hi Jonathon, do you think a Harley Benton 335 is a good starting point for a semi acoustic, i have heard good reviews about it, and i know you know your Harley's very well, i have ordered one , and i think it may need a tweak to get it just right, brilliant playing again sir, always a pleasure to see you play, nice tones from that Heritage.
Thank you!
Cant help you there Bill...Havent play on one yet... ✌❤
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I'm glad I read through the comments as that was my question as well. You mean there is an HB you haven't played!? huh?
You must have gotten the Cherry? I have been waiting for the lemon but it was sold out for the longest time. Now I see a few weeks out.
@@Steven_SK lol surprises surprises!!!
That guitar sounds awsome! Warm, clear, well balanced but sparkling - love it. Sad me, it is far beyond my price range. Yet another idol to dream of.... Thanks for showing and skilled playing. Btw.: When you are playing what are the positions of the tone knobs? Make them a difference? If yes, in what range? About 40 years ago i played an Epiphone 335 in cherry red. Beatiful Guitar sounding quite well. But i sold it after some month cause i can't move on stage without issues tonewise. The whole guitar bends up and down. It wasn't very solid. Since that time i had never owned a hollow. What's with this Heritage, is it solid on a strap?? Have a marvelous time and stay well ☮️
My tone knobs are all full....yea...kinda balanced on a strap 🤓
Hi JK. Thanks for another fine video.
How would you compare this to the 1/10th priced HB 35 Plus?
Hi brother...cant tell you as I have not played on the HB 35 plus🤓
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I have a Lemon Drop finish HB 35 plus which is a joy to play...
I had one of these for a few years. I ended up selling it because it just wouldn’t stay in tune. The neck seemed a bit unstable. I loved the way it looked and the Seth Lover pups were great. I would have kept it if it had better tuning stability. It was interesting to me that you seemed to have some tuning issues even while doing this video.
yep...but I 'm thinking it might be the new set of strings ✌❤
jammin4good Even high end guitars need a decent set up and maintenance. Every guitar I’ve bought cheap or expensive has needed some work done to it. I bought a used, almost new USA Strat a few years back, the guy I bought from could not get on with it. That guitar was very poorly set up by Fender, shocking really. Everything needed adjusting to make it feel and sound good. Best get the work done ASAP, so that the guitar grows on you from the outset, rather than fighting it and end up not playing it or even selling it.
Hi Jonathan! Fantastic demo! Is the drop in output from the Seth Lovers enough to affect how the amp responds when switching between something like your Les Paul? My LP has alnico pickups that are passive, but are pretty hot and most of my amps are set up for those pickups.
Maybe just a bit...i dont think it's a significant change✌♥
Hi Jonathan. I recently got myself a 1990 Washburn HB-35 semi hollow. Beautiful 335 style guitar with a maple neck and full through maple centre block. Do you think that the Seth lovers would sound great. I’d appreciate your opinion.
I think the will be awesome✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud great ! Thanks Jonathan 👍
Nice clip Jonathan. Heritage makes great guitars. After all, they're made by former Gibson crafts persons. I have a 2015 Memphis Custom ES-335 in figured light burst (I think that's the finish). For all the criticism Gibson took back in those days - maybe still does - Memphis was churning out super instruments back then. This ES-335 is no different. Beautiful looks, playability and tone. Cheers. Oh, and here's a little sample (pardon the clams) played through a Fuchs HRM 50 watt... soundcloud.com/markfromhawaii/es-335-through-fuchs-ods-demo-talk-to-your-daughter?in=markfromhawaii/sets/just-for-fun
Thank you Mark!! Aloha!✌❤
Preciosa guitarra 🎸
🤓✌
Great Gibson 335.
✌️❤️
It’s not a Gibson 😀
what in the heck? I was subscribed but haven’t seen your vids. Just realized i became unsubscribed. I wonder if there is a weird glitch or it’s just too easy to accidentally hit the button. Sounds amazing. how does it compare to es335? I am particularly curious how they sound acoustically wo being plugged in
lol... Oh its nice..
@@JonIsJustTooLoud would love to try one. just tried a gretsch 6120 vs 335 and was surprised how loud the 335 actually was unplugged (also depends on which 335.. oh well)
Enjoy your day my friend!!....Tim n Tina
Thank you! You too!
May I ask a Favor please? I own a Bc Rich Dagger! with what looks like the same pickups & setup! but there are NO comprehensive videos about it! could you please do a Head to head with your guitar to see how it stacks up?
I'm sorry...cant help you there! Kinda hard for me to procure a BC Rich Dagger ✌❤
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Thank you anyway
The Seth Lover pickups are supposed to be equivalent to the first humbuckers Seth Lover designed. The 1950s pickups are generally considered lower output than humbuckers from 1970 onward.
yes...interesting pickups!
Nice guitar Johnathan, sounds great, i have the Gibson 339, slightly smaller than the 335,
Very nice!🤓
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I can't play it as well as you play it, you make the guitar sing
why is everything I want lately $3k?
yea...someone tell me please!! 😂
Yeah isn't this guitar even more than the prototype from Gibson. It's $3500 USED for some models.
really?? 😮
