1960s Harmony Stella H929 Parlor Guitar

I always wonder if it's worth posting about these H929s more than I already have -- they're a basic, birch-bodied Harmony product one can find all over the place -- but in this case I wanted to share it because I have an adjustable bridge fit to it that I think is a simple solution for owners of these guitars who have issues going into different seasons and having the action shift a lot (read: any Vermonter).

The adjuster posts are set right into the top (like on a Gibson solidbody electric) and there's a cut-down archtop rosewood saddle/bridge that sits on top of them.

The rest of the work is pretty mundane -- I gave it a setup and strings over winter and it was just back here for tuners and adjustments this time around.
