I've always heard about old Harmony guitars being very vibey guitars that fit a certain niche.
I've also heard that they weren't built particularly well and that they're not the guitar you can rely on to do everything.
Saw one and grabbed a Comet at 42 Gear Street, a YouTuber event in Germany...
I’ve just picked up one of these great little guitars but it is missing the chromed metal “Roy Smeck” headstock logo. Im looking into getting a waterjet cut logo made or possibly even 3d printing one then casting a replacement. I want to make sure to get the proportions right.
1st question...
I bought an old Harmony Rocket, but I'm hard pressed to figure out which model it is. After doing some extensive research, I think it's a guitar that somebody modified.

The EHX Pitch Fork is the best pedal I can find that does what I need. But are there any good alternatives? What do you guys...
While I am collecting the materials for my f-5 mandolin and spruce telecaster build, I thought I would work on the neck of my walnut tele and make a Harmony H-44 replica. The wiring diagram it says that the potentiometers are 50k pots, and sure enough on the sides of the pots in the images I've...
Well I went way out there on this song so that I could learn from experimentation. I experimented with harmony using a variety of scale/mode applications. I included a sheet so that you know how I approached the song pertaining to the chord progression and it's in HD so make sure you click high...
So last night I had the idea of taking a used Epiphone Les Paul Junior and turning it into a Harmony H-44 Stratotone. I mean, looking at an LP junior, it almost already is somewhat set up like an H-44. All I would need to do is first strip it, reshape the cutaway, headstock, and perhaps some of...
