I don't think I would pay nearly the $1100 the seller says one of these fetched at recent auction - but then again he says he is "in a generous mood" so who knows what he will accept. No matter, it is still a cool and hard to find Harmony Archtop from the late 1950's. You don't see too many of these - I guess the added diamond soundhole was a novelty that never panned out sinceit didn't appear on any other Harmony guitars since.

- 50 Year Old Harmony H-162 Acoustic In San Diego Area For $75
This antique dealer is selling an early 1960's Harmony H-162 for $75. Of all the Harmony acoustics I've owned over the years these are my favorites. They are the perfect size (Grand Concert) and I just love the way they look, feel...
- Harmony Master Archtop In Manassas Va For $129
I see these 1950's Harmony Archtops at ridiculously high prices all the time - I don't know who buys them for that much whenyou can find them for prices like this one - $129. And this one is in good shape with the original pickguard! Of course...
- Vintage 1930 (?) Silvertone Archtop Near Columbus Oh For $40
The seller is calling this a 1930 Silvertone archtop which I guess is posible but that would make it older than most Silvertones - I think Sears was selling a similar guitar line called "Supertone" prior to 1940 but you'd have to look that...
- Harmony Mij Acoustic Dove Copy - In Kansas City For $65
This is a neat looking sunburst Dove Copy probably made at the Aria factory in Japan for Harmony in the late 60's or early 70's. Probably sounds pretty good and some nice well-aged wood for the price. *********************************...
- Harmony 000-18 Style Dreadnaught Acoustic In St. Louis Mo For $100
If you like older Harmony guitars (like I do) then you might like this Flat top acoustic. The top could be either wide grain Spruce or Mahogany (rosewood?) but it certainly looks nice. This would be somewhere around 50 years old - maybe...
