Guitar
Okay so one is a banjo but it still might be a good deal, just depends on your particular taste - and I must say that lil' Orpheum look shweeeet. The Harmony is a bit unusual seeing that it is white - and the seller seems to know and care about these instruments so that is a good sign. Take a look if you are in the Seattle area. I doubt he will ship.

For sale:
A Orpheum small parlor guitar from the 30's. It is solid mahogany with cream trim.This guitar has great sound projection and has a straight neck. It has the normal wear of a 80 year old instrument.
Next is a Kay banjo from the 40's. it plays well and stays in tune. I dont know much about banjo's but its easy to play.
Third is a Harmony archtop with the DeArmond pick up. The pick up works but does not have the wire to plug it in. At the trading musician they can hardwire it for 40$ and it will sing. It is solid birch and made in the usa. It is the model h1214 and made in 1957.
Im making a deal of 450$ for all three as they have served me well but im moving and it cost alot to ship 10 guitars. One thing of note is if your an ass you will not get these guitars. All three are well loved and need to go to a good home where they will be respected.
thanks.
ps the 450 is firm.

Some interesting items here - may be projects. He may be right about the Orpheum - I think those were made by Vega or a similar NYC higher end jazz guitar company but careful wathceras of this blog will recall I posted a similar Orpheum a while back...
- Orpehum Archtop In Charlotte For $75
Orpheum was made by Regal. I can't say I've ever seen a nice MOP inlaid neck like this on an Orpheum but this may be an exception - would be their top of the line. This could even be a nice collector model if it is rare as I suspect it to be....
