Joel can’t get enough of Heritage Guitars Inc. Heritage electric guitars are handmade in Kalamazoo, MI, at the old Gibson factory. Designed for pure tone and maximum natural resonance, their double-cut H-530 features scatter-wound Lollar P90s with Alnico 5 bar magnets on the neck and bridge, premium hardware, and a laminate maple rim set.
Heritage Guitars was founded in 1985 by three former employees of the Gibson guitar factory, Jim Deurloo, Marv Lamb, and JP Moats. Other former Gibson employees that took part of the recently created company were Bill Paige and Mike Korpak.
In the early 1980s, Gibson, faced with excess production capacity, closed its historic Parsons Street factory in Kalamazoo, Michigan and relocated much of its production to its factory in Nashville, Tennessee. Some of the Gibson employees who did not want to move their homes and families to Tennessee started production of guitars under a new name, "Heritage," which was likely meant to stake a claim to their guitar-making tradition. The company set up their new factory in part of Gibson's former Kalamazoo premises, but produced instruments in much smaller numbers than Gibson had.
