1970 Harmony H929 Stella Parlor Guitar

Overview: Hey, it's another H929 -- several generations of guitarists' first guitar! I do like the batwing pickguards on these latter-era ones, though. It's a good look. This one is the usual fare -- solid birch throughout, poplar neck, maple fretboard, and with a tailpiece setup. Jose went through this one tip to toe and it's now a good player with a woody, chunky, old-timey tone -- just as you'd like!

Interesting features: I like the batwing pickguard, for sure, and the faux-grain sunburst finish. The stenciled fret markers are, of course, classic cheese. Jose made a nice rosewood, compensated bridge for it, too.

Repairs included: Jose reset the neck, leveled/dressed the frets, fit side dots, made a new compensated bridge, cleaned it up and set it up. It's playing spot-on and ready to go.

Condition notes: It's got some wear and tear via scratches, scuffs, nicks, and dings throughout. It's original save for the bridge -- which is a nice upgrade. I can't stress enough how much better these are once they're gone-through like ours are. As-is these guitars are "guitar-shaped-objects" but once they're fixed-up they're dang enjoyable little couch friends.

It comes with: Sorry, no case.
