Heritage or Heritage

Can't decide...

I'm going to sell my 65 Showman head,...i already have a Blonde Bassman. I've got a Rick 620, Squier JV Strat maple neck, and Elitist Casino.....

I've for most part had it whittle down to either buying a Heritage 535 or a (if i convince buddy to sell it) a Heritage Briton II.

Make up my mind for me!

An 18 watter would give a wider selection of tones,
But you need a Humbucker(PAF style) in there somewhere and the 535 would do that

Depends on the tones you are after

I think i'd just stick to the HB's.

Man deciding on what gear you want is wonderful/miserable.

if you've found a 535 that you've played and really like, then that's the way to go (imho).

(but a Brit II w/original cab is a rare and precious gem )
