Price $650

Free Shipping

New hard shell case is optional. Add $130 (my cost). By default, I will ship in a Harmony cardboard case. My shipping/packing technology are second to none. Have not had a damaged guitar yet. Knock on wood.

 

Tone quality and harmonic response are outstanding. This guitar offers nice play feel and perfect intonation. Action is 4/64 at the 12th fret. I predict you will put all other guitars aside and play this one. Check my feedback and you will know.

 

Neck was reset.

Back was removed, ladder bracing on top was removed, new V-bracing installed.

Back bracing is original, but rounded and sanded smooth.

Bracing is added to the sides.

There is a crack on the peg head back. That is why the price is so low.

As usual, satisfaction is guaranteed. Returns allowed per my warranty.

I pay attention to small details. Top braces are tapered and sanded smooth. The inside back and sides are cleaned up and sanded smooth. Back braces are rounded and sanded smooth. Harmony production glue globs are chipped out. Serial numbers (if any) are preserved.

Please note - this is definitely not a show piece guitar. It is a player guitar for those who don’t care how a guitar looks. Back and sides are completely refinished. The top was left original. In a certain year, Harmony used a bad lacquer formulation. This finish chipped and fell off. I notice Gibson guitars do the same thing in that year. That is why this guitar was refinished.
