The Guitaristas KZbin channel is fully independent of sponsorship, paid reviews, and supported/gifted products... it's all the thrills without the shills! 🎸But this content costs real time and a lot of money to make so my own way of raising a few extra $$ to fund the channel is via the subscription TV Channel at: theguitaristas.tv and I am very grateful to my growing army of loyal supporters there who help fund this content, make it possible, and keep it real. You know who you are. 🙏
I AM NOT AN EXPERT. Some things I do know and some things I don't know but think I know and sometimes I say things that are not entirely correct. Once I have said things it's too late to correct them so please check any 'so called facts' with an adult, google, wikipedia, or someone else that knows.
We run this channel to provide therapy for our gear addiction and for an excuse to buy more. Please like and subscribe and keep coming back to watch our films if you would like to support the channel!

Lot's of asks where you can get the Ascent range: You can find them in the USA exclusively via Mannys digital pop up store on the downloadable Bandlab App… or exclusively in the UK and Singapore at Dawsons and SweeLee… both of whom will ship worldwide I am told.

[@jw_au]

All owned by the same parent company which also owns Heritage Guitars… from what I can see they are only selling them in the company owned stores.

[@Poldek.Misiak]

Will they be sold in the European Union? I don't want to pay any customs duty.

[@BiscuitxGravy]

For those hoping he will start taking paid promotions: Just what we need! another Rhett Shull, Mike Cole, musiciswin, agufish, etc. They literally have never say anything bad about whatever they host. Everything is awesome! Unless the whole collective mind decides they all hate it together, it is like they are all in a group chat and discus what to push that week.

[@theguitaristas]

Yeah I won’t be doing that

Always love the channel and your stuff Colin. I was proud to see my name on your roll of honour but a bit dismayed that I was down as plain old I G Nicholls while others have more charismatic handles such as “650 Thunderbird”.

Even without the awesome intro’s your content is still a 10/10 from me, my friend My wife often ignores the videos I’m watching but she perks up when she hears you - we agreed you’d just be the kind of bloke that would be top to have a pint down the pub with!

[@theguitaristas]

Cheers that’s appreciated! 😁👍🍺

[@Frosenborg]

Hadn't heard the back story before, I've admired the quality of your show and wondered what you do for a living? Everything makes sense now. I used to be a cameraman myself, worked in tv-productions, sports and entertainment mostly. I quit couple of years ago, got burned out and stuff. It's funny though how now a days when I watch something on tv, I get these moments where I go, "Hey.. I used to do that for a living..". Keep up the good work!

[@theguitaristas]

Cheers man! 😁👍

[@andrewmiller2868]

You're right to plug the TV channel Colin. People are used to so much free stuff online they don't give a second thought to what it takes to create it. I've just popped over to the TV channel to see what the second Heritage guitar is and you won't be disappointed folks when it shows up on your KZbin feed.

[@nellayema2455]

Yep. With YT Premium one doesn't see ads, so just about every other YT'er actually puts ads in their vids these days. They also prominently mention Patreon in every vid. Colin's TV channel is his own version of Patreon with other perks included, which is brilliant, IMO, and he doesn't push it the way the other presenters push their Patreon account.

[@jfiery]

The channel is $5 very well spent. I love that your channel is authentic, and is the only one I can think of that pretty much sticks to the punk rock ethos of DIY and Integrity the whole way. At the same time, it's clear that this has been weighing on you and it's becoming an issue so ultimately you may have to do what you have to do. I'll be supporting you either way.

[@postrockmike9199]

With Epiphone pulling out of the affordable market, it seems like a good time to be bringing this out. Just need an H-170...

[@ryanevans371]

They're not so much "pulling out of it", depending on what price point one considers affordable. Epi is still making all the normal Standards and Customs in the $500-$700 range they had been, and also still have the cheaper $200 bolt-ons. And they're all still very nice. They've just been marketing the hell out of the $1400+ IBGC models the last 9 months or so. Because they're selling like mad.

[@HALWASRIGHT]

What you talking about? This is simply false! Epiphone aren't pulling "out of the affordable market"...they still offer their "affordable" range (whatever that means). They simply created additional product tiers. The head of Epiphone said as much in VIDEO on Gibson TV. Stop spreading false information.

[@JonesTones1979]

I am honored to be included in the roll of honour Colin! happy to be funding an addiction many of us have, and funding the best guitar review channel on the ‘tube🫡 - Steve

I suppose like most of the YT audience, I couldn't care less if your videos are sponsored or not (unless maybe if it were by Putin...). You and your style of presenting is why we come and watch your content. But you do you, if you prefer your independence, kudos to you. See you soon 👊🏼

[@iancox4450]

The fact you don't do paid reviews and unscripted vids is one of the reasons why I watch your videos, you're just like most of your audience, a massive guitar nerd and it's great to watch. That said, if you were to take some sponsorship in order to enhance the channel and keep doing what you love I doubt anyone would blame you! Do what it takes to keep the channel alive mate.

[@martintaylor1758]

Definitely review the Standard. Would really like to see you review high end guitars, especially custom shop.

[@d.j.9961]

I was getting ready for work & had to rush to work & I was thinking of the Heritage H150 all night! After work, I looked them up & after seeing your video, I assumed the H150 was $249.00 but NO, Its 2,599.00. Thankfully I found a Bullfighter SB series LP style guitar & after tax, shipping & handling & all fee's,it cost exactly $150.00 & it's fantastic! Yeah it's a Chinese guitar but, it's rather nice!!! I got the very last one from amazon. I am very glad I purchased it!!!! Now I want every Bullstar/ Bullfighter guitar I see based on the quality of this one LP styled guitar! I'm rather disappointed that the Heritage H150 cost so much & I cannot afford one.

[@AndrewAHayes]

Im a bit of a snob when it comes to Les Pauls, bolt on necks are usually out, I really should base my opinion on how it sounds and not how the neck is fixed, the mad thing is the Fender Telecaster is my favourite guitar! I am interested to see how Heretidge look after their brand with these guitars, are they set up well?

[@brotherhawk3228]

Lol that makes no sense. A little ocd . Lol

Beautiful guitars, thanks for the unboxing.

[@catmandoodoo7903]

Colin, his Crocs of Rock and Butterknife of Joy are the best thing on KZbin.

[@grahamzebedee5525]

I stopped playing Gibson 35 years ago and switched to Heritage USA models, always got a great tone with good sustain. My old Goldtop H150 has seen 25 years worth of gigs and is battle scared but still gets the job done with ease. They really are a brand worth checking out.

[@shanetx81]

My heritage story started a bit later. I bought and sold three Gibsons and couldn’t find a good one. Then I stumbled across an odd little heritage (the body is slightly smaller, like the h-140 series but has a few spec differences that don’t match up… and no serial number or control compartment sticker for information. I was told it was a prototype for the h-140 and given to an endorsee as a gift… but I don’t think that’s likely either. I’ve reached out to Ren Wall and he thinks maybe it was a factory second that had the stamp removed somehow but there’s no evidence of anything being removed from the headstock and the “made in Kalamazoo” lettering is intact. I’m leaning toward once-defective, employee finished guitar, or something or that nature). I bought it and it was instant confirmation I had my guitar. Twenty three years later, it’s still the prettiest burst I’ve ever seen and plays as nice as ever.

[@grahamzebedee5525]

@@shanetx81 😎 Cool...

[@jfiery]

@@grahamzebedee5525 so as a Heritage owner and fan, what is your take on the Ascent line? I think they should have changed the name on the headstock to something other than the Heritage.

[@grahamzebedee5525]

@@jfiery Hi, I have yet to see one up close to make an informed decision. I feel its better to judge with the item in hand before rushing to any conclusions.

[@setheverhart]

P.S. My #1 is a Heritage 535 and it’s a lifetime keeper. Wonderful instruments.

[@e.henrythripshaw4554]

Fun video. I'm a Heritage fan from way back. I even drove by the factory in 1986 just to see where Heritage guitars were made. I had to wait more than 30 years to buy my first Heritage, but I now own three: an H-150 and H-535 with consecutive serial numbers, and a second H-150. They're fabulous guitars with at least as much connection to the golden era Gibsons as the current Gibsons have. I'm not sure how I feel about the new import range, but I'm looking forward to seeing your review.

[@mubodude]

I had a late 90's Roy Clark model that I sent to the factory for some fretwork and refurb on some scratches and dings. Ren Ferguson was there at the time and personally restored it from the ground up. Did a superb fret level, crown, etc. and took all the hardware off and buffed it, worked his magic and made it look like new! Too bad they had to resort to this to likely save the factory and business.

@@HALWASRIGHT I don’t and wouldn’t buy the current Epiphones at their inflated price point. But this about what I’d buy, I’m a seasoned guitarist that gigs for a living. My grandkids however, they could easily save up to buy one of these. It’s a great way of getting new youngsters buying guitars at an access point that they can afford and a great way for Heritage to get them switched on to their brand....Gibson Corp and it’s subsidiaries have truly lost their way. Even as a gigging guitarist there’s no way it fork out the prices Gibson want for the quality they’re turning out.

You’re a man of integrity Colin, and that’s rare nowadays. I agree with a lot on here though, none of us would think less of you for taking some sort sponsorship. If you could pick and choose what things were sent to you for free, you’d still be reviewing what you liked. Andy Ferris ( the guitar geek ) is a great example of this. His reviews are sponsored however he gives his honest opinion on everything and seems like a decent bloke in the process, much like you Col.

A suggestion for anyone looking for a new standard or custom core H-150 by Heritage, go to a Heritage dealer and ask what the best price they can give you. I was able to get several hundred off the online dealer price. And after reading online some other people’s experiences, it is common to get a significant amount off. (Not sure about the UK. I’m in the states.)

[@Furtheronmusic]

First impressions are good. I hope they have success with them. More because I hope they start putting additional ranges between these and the core models. A £600 Epiphone slayer would be a good idea to start with.

@@georgeoh-well8116 i thought this as well. I didn't know the 1st 30 mins were so crucial. The timing of the release doesn't seem to be the best to maximize those first 30 mins.

OK... perhaps better suggestion: how about those Epiphone inspired by Gibson? The ES 355 ones are relevant, I think, since the Gibson equivalents are £6k+? So it's sort of the only "mid price" one? (They have Gibson custom shop custombuckers)
