Funny you should mention that....2 1/4" deep, big neck, florentine cutaway, CES format.
I'll be posting some more revealing pix of this one in a continuation of this fine thread, soon enough.

Oh my, that’s beautiful Stephen! Here’s to no sleeping for Jads. Post more pics!

Were there ever any Heritage archtops made to be exclusively acoustic?

2B,

It's really stunning alright. Great choice for the one guitar home.

Absolutely! Many were in fact. I owned a Super Eagle that was.

Yes, but it's not visually apparent. Many Heritage archtops came with floating pickups but were not built for optimized acoustic response - these look indistinguishable from those built specifically as acoustic instruments. Acoustically-voiced Heritage archtops were often shipped with two pickguards - one with a floating pickup mounted to it, and one without a pickup.

I wonder if this could be a business opportunity. Hmmmm.....
Or the other way around... now THAT would be funny.
