We looked at Heartfield guitars once before with this RR-58 and I mentioned that I would love to see it in green ( it's kind of a thing for me, green guitars ) and lo and behold here we have a green Heartfield RR-59.
I think it looks incredible.
I've yet to get my hands on a Heartfield guitar but given the quality level of guitars coming out of Japan at the time I can only assume it plays as good as it looks.
Currently on eBay for $699 U.S.

I feel like Fender borrowed a lot from this when they later released the Squier M-80. Obviously a lot of detail differences but there are a lot of similarities.

I used to play in a couple of groups with a guy who had a Heartfield (upgraded model with a carved top) that always sounded good in a variety of different styles/ situations.
ReplyDeleteI have one of these! It does play very well
ReplyDeleteNice...But i prefer the head shape of the yellow one.
ReplyDeletePerhaps Yamaha drew some inspiration from those for their new Revstar guitar line, which i find great visually but never tried as they don't make lefties.
I owned this guitar from 93/94-98. I can assure you that it was the greatest guitar I ever touched. I pawned it when I was 18, biggest regret that I have still.
