Guitar
This is the proverbial "found it in my grandparents attic" story of a Red Harmony Rocket. I emailed this guy but haven't heard back. Fans of this blog know that I love these guitars - I have an H-53 and an H-59 - both in red. The seller didn't list a pic.
Update: Seller emailed me back some pics of the guitar - here they are - nice H56 Rocket from the late 60's maybe a 67 or 68 - DeArmond Mustache pickups, the white and gold tophat knobs (not the cupcakes) and the mid-period Harmony headstock logo. Of course the pickgaurd is missing.

dont know anything about this....it is red ....6 strings and electric
has numbers stamped inside...it is hollow. this was foud in my grandparents attic inside a case...it is alittle dusty.
i have wiped it down with a dry cloth, but have not given it a really good cleaning.
i took it to a local music shop and they plugged it in and even played it for me, and tuned it....a manager asked if i wanted to sell it, so instead i listed here.
i have tried to upload pics and it would load them...can e-mail me for pics
thank you
