Heritage HFT-445 1989 Natural Acoustic Dreadnought Guitar Made in Kalamazoo

  

Here for sale we have a Heritage HFT445, a dreadnought acoustic guitar which was expertly crafted in Kalamazoo, U. The Heritage is a relatively recent brand founded by former workers at a Gibson factory. The guitars produced were designed and built using very similar techniques used when making Gibson model, with far smaller quantities being produced with an emphasis on quality over quantity. The HFT-445 is constructed using laminated mahogany for the back and sides and solid spruce for the top.

This combination gives a lovely rich tone, this guitar is set up with very light strings so at present gives a really nice bright sound, however this can be made fuller with a heavier set. The neck is made using mahogany and the fingerboard from rosewood.

The neck has a fat C profile and is great for strummers and those who prefer a meatier neck, the low action makes this extremely playable. Guitar Type - Dreadnought Acoustic. Body - Laminated Mahogany Back and Sides with Solid Spruce Top. Luthier report by Adam North Guitars. Headstock- Some scratches and marks that can be seen in the pictures.

Any Extra Condition Notes- Some minor marks as you can see on the pictures. No or little Indentation - Very Light playing wear. Truss Rod & Bridge- Fully Functional and can be adjusted. Top of Guitar- The top of the guitar is bellying.

Height of the string from the 12th Fret- 2mm Each side. Please be aware that the action on a guitar may move slightly in transit and this measurement is the current height. The top is slightly bellying but the action is still very playable.

There is not much room to lower it in the saddle but is not a huge issue for playability. Strings on Guitar- 11 - 52. In good aesthetic condition for its age. The top is slightly bellying but action measurements are at a level of good playability, the setup is limited because of this and the saddle height.
